Bolton contacted whistleblower prior to filing complaint, suggesting an attempted coup
The Buffalo Chronicle ^ | September 26, 2019 | Staff

Posted on 11/16/2019 8:16:43 AM PST by LibertyWoman

In the hours after National Security Advisor John Bolton was fired by President Donald Trump on September 10th, he immediately began calling longtime political operatives in Washington, DC, sources tell The Chronicle. Many of those calls were made to Democrats and many of them in the national security establishment.

...

“It’s go time,” he began those conversations, multiple sources tell The Chronicle, as if to suggest that Bolton’s patience with the President had worn thin, and even implying later in more than one conversation that a faction of neo-conservatives at the Central Intelligence Agency was ready to remove the President from office.

...

While on the phone with one former government official who currently works on K Street, Bolton admitted that he was furious with the President, whom he lambasted with obscenities for more than five minutes. The President would learn his lesson, he told the lobbyist, who chalked it up to a disgruntled employee venting over his unexpected termination.

But now, he fears that Bolton is organizing a coup d’etat to oust President Trump from office. He cites Bolton’s contacts with journalists at major media outlets — particularly The Washington Post under the ownership of Jeff Bezos — to whom Bolton is widely thought to have leaked information from inside of the Trump administration through the duration of his tenure.

He is a member of the Council on Foreign Relations, he’s a one worlder.

Bolton was only ever in it for himself. He never saw a conflict he didn’t like, just like traitor No Name.

He’d have us in shooting wars all over the world.

I am ultra ultra tired of anonymous sources. May be true, may be partially true, may be hardly any truth, who knows? We need NAMES. Not your fault, LW. The media’s fault.

What you said, Texas E. Plus, the coup started several years ago, so if Bolton is doing the bad things the anonymous sources say in the article, he better stand at the end of the link. And those in the front of the line are going to be receiving justice soon, and it won’t be pretty, and I’m sure Bolton knows that.

President Trump is draining the swamp and in doing so revealing the slimy creatures who inhabit it.

I just searched for John Bolton on twitter; he stopped tweeting on his official account the day he resigned/was fired, and searches found no other John Bolton account. If you have one maybe post it? My search results:

https://twitter.com/search?f=users&q=John%20Bolton%20

Anyone can read twitter, no need for an account.

LibertyWoman, I agree and applaud your views on President Reagan. The best there ever was and, sadly, the best there ever will be.

I don't know about that. I was born in 1985, so I wasn't 'aware' of Reagan's presidency; I felt that Trump had already surpassed Reagan within 6 months in office.

FR has always been home to a large group of Neocons as has the Republican Party.

You’re right. His comments about Guilliani being a grenade was what made me believe he was actively tweeting. Nevertheless, he’s broadcasted his opposition to the President’s policies...undermining him. I don’t care what venue it is, he is still suspect.

Reagan was magnificent, but he governed in a different era. He never had to face anything like the current Democratic Communist party allied with permanent bureaucracy Deep State seditionists who have mounted the “Resistance” coup against the people’s choice. His own party, while not particularly thrilled with him in total, was not so heavily populated with quisling, terrified “Vichy” Republicans as we see today. Their ties to the permanent political and government class were not as strong as the RINO Never Trumpers of today.

Reagan’s biggest issue, which only became apparent in retrospect, was his choice of one of the original globalist Deep Staters as vice-president. That turned out to be devastating.

Trump is Reagan’s equivalent in many ways, yet he is doing so in the height of internal crisis, with the dogs of resistance (the attempt to permanently institute a Leftist dictatorship) hounding him mercilessly. He is in this way like Lincoln, with an existential crisis besieging his efforts, but this time the revolutionaries are the pre-eminent power within his own government. This places Trump at a singular and unique position in our history. He might literally be the last president of a republic form of government if he cannot succeed and if the people of the nation are careless and unworthy.

It appears so. Perhaps Bolton has done some good things in the past but war always seems to be the default position with him and others in our country and I'm sick of it. Bush got us into the ME with no exit strategy. What kind of BS is that?

Donald Trump has radically changed the perception of 'going to war' ...at least for me.

I do not fault you for posting the article. It’s in the “may be, time will tell” department.

Remember, Bolton was a Bushie. And what’s the record of Bushies regarding President Trump? Not good.

But given the record of “anonymous sources”, I’m going to wait for further evidence.
