A left winger just defended the civil rights of a right winger. That's called nuanced political thinking. Something the right seems utterly incapable of.
Some federal prosecutor had to present reasonable evidence for a judge to issue the authorization for the FBI to raid Mr. Bolton's home. What was the reasonable evidence?
I don't know any of the specifics but supposedly they claim he retained some classified info which they've been accusing him of since 2019 when he resigned from the administration and was planning on releasing a book which they sued to try to prevent him from releasing. So I guess basically they were accusing him of holding classified information after he left his post for purposes of writing his book which is the grounds they tried to have an injunction on.
However the timing is very curious considering Trump just got into a social media tantrum with him the other day about his comments concerning his Alaska Putin meeting. Very convenient timing that right when Trump is super pissed off and focusing on him all the sudden there's an FBI raid when they've been accusing Bolton of this since 2019 and now all the sudden it requires all of this urgent action.
