John Bolton faces charges



John Bolton's a War Criminal -- also an alleged swinger but the thought of John Bolton doing it is just too disgusting so we won't go there. But he's in hot water and we hope it's a long, slow boil. Devan Cole (CNN) notes he's in trouble for allegedly disclosing classified information:
 

The Times reported that two of the people familiar with the issue said Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe referred the matter to DOJ last month. The move prompted the head of the department's national security division to open the criminal investigation, a person briefed on the case told the newspaper.

Bolton, who served for a time as President Donald Trump's national security adviser, has said he has complied with all of the revisions requested by the White House.


Did he do it? Who knows. If he did, he deserves to be punished. That's what happened to David Petraeus, remember? He ran afoul of Barack Obama and they took him out by prosecuting him for sharing classified information with his biographer and lover Paula Broadwell. Had they not destroyed his image by doing that, he might have run for president in 2016.

 So if War Hawk John disclosed classified information, let him be punished as such.
