John Bolton indicted, shared ‘more than a thousand pages of information’

Former White House National Security Advisor John Bolton was indicted Thursday on 18 counts related to the improper handling of classified materials. Attorney General Pam Bondi said, "There is one tier of justice for all Americans". Bolton’s Maryland home had been raided by FBI agents in August. Attorney John Day is giving more insight to LiveNOW's Mike Pache about Bolton, who held the position of White House National Security Advisor from 2018 to 2019 during Trump’s initial administration.

We are now learning that Bolton was indicted on eight counts of transmission of National Defense Information and ten counts of retention of National Defense information.

"From on or about April 9, 2018, through at least on or about August 22, 2025, BOLTON abused his position as National Security Advisor by sharing more than a thousand pages of information about his day-to-day activities as the National Security Advisor—including information relating to the national defense which was classified up to the TOP SECRET/SCI level—with two unauthorized individuals, namely Individuals 1 and 2," the indictment reads. "BOLTON also unlawfully retained documents, writings, and notes relating to the national defense, including information classified up to the TOP SECRET/SCI level, in his home in Montgomery County, Maryland."
