Bolton Pleads Guilty to Holding Classified Docs

John Bolton, ex-Trump national security adviser, just pleaded guilty to illegally keeping classified info — a move that could land him jail time, with sentencing set for October 28. The deal caps his possible sentence at five years, but the judge can go higher — or he can walk it back if the fine exceeds $2.25 million. While other Trump critics have faced legal trouble, Bolton quietly accepted this deal after FBI raids last August — even though the probe started before Trump’s potential comeback. His 2019 exit from the White House and his controversial memoir, which the administration tried to block, likely fueled the fallout. Trump himself called Bolton “crazy” and warned he’d pushed the U.S. toward World War Six. Now, all eyes are on the judge — and whether Bolton’s punishment matches his legacy.
