John Bolton, who previously served as National Security Advisor, has been reportedly indicted as of Thursday for allegedly mishandling classified documents.

According to a report by the Associated Press, this development follows earlier events involving Bolton’s residence and office.

In August, Breitbart News highlighted that Bolton’s home and office had been subject to raids, intensifying scrutiny on his actions.

Concerns about Bolton’s handling of sensitive information first emerged in 2020. These issues were linked to the publication of his memoir, which followed a public disagreement with the then-president.

During the first impeachment proceedings in 2020, a leaked copy of the memoir reached the New York Times. The White House had advised Bolton against publishing the book until the removal of potentially classified content, but he proceeded with its release regardless.

The concerns over Bolton’s mishandling of classified information arose in 2020 when he published a memoir after having a falling-out with the president.

A copy of the memoir leaked to the New York Times during the first impeachment fight in 2020. The White House told him not to publish it until the classified information allegedly in the book was removed. He published it anyway.

Though a federal judge declined to order that Bolton’s book — of which thousands of copies had been printed and shipped before going on sale in 2020 — be pulped, the judge also ruled that Bolton had likely compromised national security.
