On August 22, 2025, FBI agents raided the Bethesda, Maryland home of former US National Security Advisor John Bolton as part of an investigation related to documents, with the search beginning around 7 a.m. The operation was reportedly ordered by FBI Director Kash Patel. Bolton, who served under President Donald Trump from 2018 to 2019, is not under arrest. The raid coincided with Bolton’s recent public criticism of the Trump administration’s tariff policies, particularly regarding India and China, and came amid heightened attention on trade and foreign policy ahead of a Trump-Putin summit. Bolton has had a contentious relationship with Trump, including disputes over Iran, Afghanistan, and North Korea, and previously faced restrictions such as revoked security clearances and attempts by the administration to block his memoir’s release due to classified content.
