In a significant development, the FBI executed a raid at the home of former National Security Adviser John Bolton in Bethesda, Maryland, early Friday morning. Sources confirmed that this operation is part of a national security investigation aimed at locating classified records.
An FBI official stated, “The FBI is conducting court-authorized activity in the area. There is no threat to public safety.” However, the agency did not provide further details regarding the specific nature of the investigation or the evidence that led to the raid.
Bolton, who has served in high-profile government roles and is a prominent figure in political circles, did not respond to inquiries from NBC News regarding the raid.
In a statement on social media platform X, FBI Director Kash Patel emphasized the agency’s commitment to law enforcement, declaring, “NO ONE is above the law… @FBI agents on mission.” Additionally, both Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino referenced the raid in their own posts.
The unfolding situation has captured the attention of political observers and is expected to raise further questions about the handling of classified information by former officials in the U.S. government.
As the investigation proceeds, details regarding its scope and potential implications for Bolton remain unclear. Further updates will be provided as more information becomes available.
