The recent FBI raid on John Bolton’s home resulted in the confiscation of several electronic devices, including computers, cell phones, and USB drives, as well as documents related to President Donald Trump. The search warrant documents, filed with the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland, listed over a dozen items seized from Bolton’s residence in Bethesda, Md.

Among the items seized were two iPhones (one red with two camera lenses and one black in a black case), three computers (including a silver Dell XPS laptop, a Dell Precision Tower computer model 3620, and a Dell Inspiron 2330 computer), a Seagate hard drive, and two Sandisk 64 gigabyte USB drives. The FBI also took a white binder labeled “Statements and Reflections to Allied Strikes” and typed documents in folders labeled “Trump I-IV.”

Bolton’s Legal Troubles

The raid, which took place on August 22, is reportedly part of an investigation into the mishandling of classified documents. Four boxes containing “printed daily activities” were also removed from Bolton’s home. This legal trouble comes after the Biden administration shut down a previous probe into classified documents during Trump’s presidency.

In 2020, the Justice Department attempted to block the publication of Bolton’s memoir, “The Room Where It Happened,” citing classified material. Despite this, the book was eventually released.

Bolton’s Critique of Trump

Following the raid on his home, Bolton criticized Trump’s Ukraine policy in an op-ed, claiming it was marked by “confusion, haste, and disarray.” He also expressed skepticism about Trump’s attempts to fast-track a peace deal and his summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Trump, in response to the raid, disparaged Bolton, calling him a “lowlife” and questioning his patriotism. The two had a falling out during Bolton’s tenure as national security advisor, leading to Trump revoking Bolton’s security clearance and Secret Service detail in 2025.

Despite the legal and political turmoil surrounding him, Bolton continues to be a prominent figure in the national security arena.

Conclusion

The FBI raid on John Bolton’s home has brought to light new developments in the ongoing investigation into classified documents and the former national security advisor’s relationship with President Trump. As the legal proceedings unfold, the public will be watching closely to see how Bolton’s involvement in these matters impacts his future.
