FBI agents raided the home of President Trump’s former national security adviser John Bolton in Bethesda, Maryland on August 22, 2025. The raid, part of a national security investigation involving classified documents, was ordered by FBI Director Kash Patel. Patel cryptically tweeted about the raid shortly after it began. The investigation was initially launched years ago but shut down by the Biden administration, according to a senior US official, for purported political reasons. Bolton's 2020 book, "The Room Where It Happened," was previously scrutinized for including classified information, leading to a Justice Department inquiry. Bolton has been openly critical of Trump since leaving his administration. The raid follows Patel's revelation that former FBI Director James Comey authorized leaks of classified documents before the 2016 election.
