FBI Raids John Bolton Home in National Security Probe

Following the FBI raid on former National Security Adviser John Bolton's home over a classified documents investigation tied to his 2020 memoir, President Donald Trump has signaled an intensifying campaign against his political adversaries, focusing next on former New Jersey Governor Chris Christie. Trump accused Christie of lying about the 2013 George Washington Bridge scandal, suggesting the case should be reopened and hinting that Christie could face a politically motivated investigation or raid. Christie criticized Trump for hypocrisy, acknowledging probable cause for Bolton's raid but arguing the president did not hold himself to the same standards regarding classified information. Trump's attacks on Christie, a fierce critic and 2024 presidential candidate, reflect ongoing political retribution against former allies who opposed him. The conflict underscores deepening divisions within the Republican Party as Trump continues to target those who broke ranks during his presidency. This series of events has raised concerns among Trump's critics about further raids and investigations in the coming months.
