Turley: John Bolton Could Face Years in Prison

Original Article

Posted By: DW626, 8/22/2025 1:42:37 PM

After the FBI raided John Bolton’s house on Friday, legal expert Jonathan Turley noted that the allegations against Bolton could potentially result in years of prison if they are true. The Donald Trump-Kash Patel FBI reportedly raided Bolton’s home and office in search of classified documents. As my colleague Kevin Downey Jr. reported, Trump and co. have yet to confirm the report officially, but Patel and his deputy co-director Dan Bongino hinted on X that it was true and the raid was part of enforcing the law. Turley, when he commented, noted that allegations such as those leveled against Bolton could, if proved in court, lead to decades in prison.

Only way these traitors are going to be incarcerated is if the Republicans take the House and the senate in the midterms. No RINO’s either. That way the judicial branch can be cleaned up. Bolton should be behind bars. Along with his friends in the government

Allegations are nothing it's what they found that counts, If they found nothing they've got nothing. What did they find. To be honest if Bolton had anything there he is a damned fool. I don't think they found anything./

Nothing will happen.; Remember Sandy Berger? Diaper Joe Biden? Only time a 'classified' documents raid produces anything is when a Refublican is involved. However, Trump is experienced in the grind down power of the full wait of the goobernment in punishing the victim. Time the DeMS-13 and their allies discover the feeling of persecution without conviction. And bankruptcy.

Notes he'd have taken in highest secret meetings could also have been targeted. That kind of material would be well into the classifieddocument classification.

I heard this morning that he was always a prolific note taker and that the book he published 4-5 years ago may be what is getting him in trouble. I remember when it came out there was question if some of his information was not for the public domain.

President Donald Trump is responding to the decision by a New York appellate court Thursday to throw out the bogus $515 million fraud case brought against him by Attorney General Letitia James. Here is Trump's full reaction, which he posted on Truth Social: TOTAL VICTORY in the FAKE New York State Attorney General Letitia James Case! I greatly respect the fact that the Court had the Courage to throw out this unlawful and disgraceful Decision that was hurting Business all throughout New York State.

In May 1981, young Jewish American leaders visiting Israel had the opportunity to speak with then-Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin. One asked, “What do you think are the lessons of the Holocaust?” Begin’s reply is eerily prescient and provides important lessons that Christians as well as Jews must learn in the face of ascendant Islam. The first point Begin made essentially predicted October 7 and mandated Israel’s fierce response to the war Hamas started:

Mark Hamill, the man most famous for playing the character of Luke Skywalker, recently admitted that he nearly packed his bags after Donald Trump won re-election in 2024. Apparently, the thought of another Trump term sent the actor spiraling into the dark side, ready to abandon this country altogether. He even floated the idea past his wife, Marilou York, offering her a choice between moving to London or settling in Ireland. It's a bold proclamation on its surface, but like so many of Hollywood’s political temper tantrums, it ended in retreat.

Many Trump agnostics, on both the Left and Right, have convinced themselves that a Ukraine peace deal is doomed. Never underestimate Trump. Envoy Steve Witkoff revealed the reality during his Sunday appearance with Jake Tapper. Witkoff spent extensive time negotiating with Putin during the previous week. Trump wouldn’t have invited Putin if a deal wasn’t in sight. Early in this administration, Witkoff was dismissed by media pundits as a naive and gullible dunce, taken to the cleaners in Iranian negotiations. How well did things work out for the surviving Iranian leadership? A billionaire New York attorney, Witkoff was initially dismissed by Qatari fanboy and San Francisco native Tucker Carlson
Was the FBI Behind the Oklahoma Bombing? 30 replies

It has always been hard to believe that the truck-bombing of the A.P. Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City on April 19, 1995, which killed 168 people, including 19 children at a daycare center, was planned by just one or two perpetrators acting alone. However, the official story states that the mastermind was Gulf War veteran Timothy McVeigh, and that the two others sentenced with him only helped him in various ways. Right from the start, warning signs indicated that the investigation was being misled. The FBI developed a story claiming that a group called the Patriots Movement, which included anti-government extremists and white supremacists, was responsible for the attack.

“Nothing is so necessary for a young man as the company of intelligent women.” ― Leo Tolstoy, War and Peace Margaret Brennan has a knack for reducing world-historical moments to the hysteria of a middle school recess spat. On yesterday’s Face the Nation, with Secretary of State Marco Rubio as the primary guest, Brennan trotted out her latest metaphor: Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, she suggested, was dragging along European leaders to Washington so he wouldn’t get “bullied” into a bad peace deal by Donald Trump. Rubio wasn’t having it. “This is such a stupid media narrative,” he said plainly. Here’s the exchange, condensed: MARGARET BRENNAN: … You know there is concern from the Europeans

The Trump economy continues to improve, and crime is falling. Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin met to begin the process of winding down the war between Russia and Ukraine. Trump has also begun turning Washington back into a peaceful city where residents can walk to the Dairy Queen without fear of stray lead perforation. The entire nation should be, like me, enjoying a daytime cocktail (a Manhattan with orange bitters, risque!), and enjoying life, oui? Not quite. Sure, your typical flag-waving, liberty-loving Americans are having a hoot, but the more successful Trump — and America — become, the louder those meat-dodging, septum-pierced, blue-haired apparatchiks seem to screech

Cracker Barrel shed almost $100 million in market value after its stock plunged Thursday following the release of a new logo. The new design eliminates a longstanding drawing of an overall-clad man leaning against a barrel, in favor of a cleaner logo featuring just the chain's name. Shares of Cracker Barrel fell $4.22, or 7.2%, to $54.80 in Thursday trading, shedding $94 million in market value. The stock had dipped to a low of $50.27 earlier in the day, representing a loss of almost $200 billion in its capitalization.

A serial pedophile has agreed to be castrated as part of a plea deal after he was caught trying to sexually assault a seven-year-old girl.  Thomas Allen McCartney, 37, is classified a 'Tier Three' offender and is considered one of Louisiana's worst child predators. McCartney has agreed to be both physically and chemically castrated as part of plea deal Tuesday in order to reduce his prison sentence - although he'll still spend 40 years in prison, according to local station Fox 12. Louisiana is the first and only state to allow surgical castration to be used as a punishment for sex crimes.

Trump posted a photo of Coristine after he was beaten bloody by the mob of teens. The President has since federalized DC to crack down on crime.[snip] Judge Briggs released one teen to a youth shelter and the other to his mother.

A New York appeals court Thursday threw out the massive $464 million judgment dealt to President Trump after he was found liable at a civil trial for business fraud. The Appellate Division, First Department overturned the whopping fine in the case in which Trump, 78, was found to have fraudulently inflated his net worth by billions of dollars over a decade to get better loan and insurance terms. Trump would have had to pay a total of more than $500 million, including more than $100 million in interest, had the February 2024 ruling from Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Arthur Engoron been upheld.

The raid is part of a “national security investigation in search of classified records,” a person familiar with the matter told NBC News. An FBI official said, “The FBI is conducting court authorized activity in the area. There is no threat to public safety,” but declined to comment on Bolton, according to NBC.

From the Miami Herald, Judge orders Alligator Alcatraz shut down in 60 days, says no more new detainees. It’s an Obama-appointed federal district judge, of course, and this is the case involving the alleged “environmental damage” being done to one of the world’s biggest swamps. From the Herald, Though her order does not prohibit the state from making repairs to the site, the most striking aspect of the order is her demand that the state begin removing all generators, gas, sewage, and other waste items that have transformed the airstrip into a detention center within 60 days, rendering the site uninhabitable. The state of Florida, of course, is appealing the decision.
