The sweet Boomerang of justice is flying again today, and it started early with a raid on John Bolton’s home and office.
In what can only be described as almost a mirror-image of the Mar-a-Lago raid, things are about to get very interesting!
This is called a BOOMERANG 🪃
3 Years ago, miraculously almost to this day, John Bolton was on MSNBC discussing how horrible Trump was for taking Classifed Documents to Mar-A-Lago
Fast forward to today, John Bolton’s home and office was raided… looking for Classified… https://t.co/dam22xYrZw pic.twitter.com/aRDTgSS11N

Of course President Trump was completely exonerated and clearly within his rights as President, but John Bolton? Time will tell.
It’s clear that Patel’s FBI believes they have something here.
Both Patel and Bongino has posted this morning making it clear that no one is above the law and they’re going full steam after everyone:

In addition to raiding his home, they also hit his office:

Here is more from Fox News live on the air this morning:
The FBI also raided John Bolton’s Office in Washington D.C.

Greg Kelly reports Bolton was forced to wait in his driveway in his underpants, but I cannot confirm that report:
John Bolton, BUSTED!
The FBI “knocked on his door” at 7am and searched his House. All kinds of Swamp PLOTS to be found. Heard they make him wait in the DRIVEWAY. In his UNDERPANTS. “Lovin It” pic.twitter.com/qV5ifkVSJ4— Greg Kelly (@gregkellyusa) August 22, 2025
Jonathan Turley told Fox News that Bolton could face up to 20 years in prison, but that each document could be a separate count so effectively this could turn into a life sentence if the worst plays out.
Watch here:
🚨NEW: Jonathan Turley says John Bolton could be hit with up to 20 years in prison over national defense information:
"It could be national defense information. That creates a heightened potential penalty…5 to 20 years."

President Trump was later asked about the raid and he said he saw it on the news but had no prior knowledge of it.
I think this is the biggest poker face ever, but you gotta love it:
The NY Post added these details:
FBI agents raided the Maryland home and Washington, DC office of President Trump’s former national security adviser John Bolton Friday morning in a high-profile national security probe involving classified documents.
ADVERTISEMENTFederal agents went to Bolton’s house in Bethesda, Md., at 7 a.m. in an investigation ordered by FBI Director Kash Patel, a Trump administration official told The Post. They later went to Bolton’s office, but did not enter until a judge signed a warrant for that location late Friday morning.
“NO ONE is above the law… @FBI agents on mission,” Patel said in a cryptic post to X shortly after the raid began.
Bolton has not been arrested and is not currently charged with any crimes, the official added.
“He’s not a smart guy, but he could be a very unpatriotic guy,” President Trump told reporters of Bolton Friday morning. “We’re going to find out.”
The raid came at the behest of Patel, with the president claiming that he had no advance knowledge of the operation.
“I know nothing about it. I just saw it this morning … I tell [Attorney General] Pam [Bondi] and I tell the group: ‘I don’t want to know, but you have to do what you have to do. I don’t want to know about it.’”
“I could know about it. I could be the one starting — and I’m actually the chief law enforcement officer — but I feel that it’s better this way.”
It is not unusual for a president not to have been informed ahead of an FBI raid. Traditionally, the Justice Department has worked independently of the White House — especially on matters potentially tied to domestic politics. For example, former President Joe Biden said he was not given a heads-up about an August 2022 FBI raid of Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate to recover national security papers sought by the National Archives.
Here is more analysis from Fox News:

Roger Stone couldn’t help but take a victory lap:
Good morning. John Bolton. How does it feel to have your home raided at 6 o'clock in the morning?
