    1. @John Stifter Well Iran was not that much of a threat but cancelling that treaty has now made them one well done Mr Bolton.

  1. Who would have thought the Iraq Warmonger Bolton had higher ethical standard than Trump and his cronies… Kudos to Bolton.

    1. @Hey Punk !!! I don’t watch Fox News very often. I get all lof my truther news from Alex Jones. He IS the real news for patriots. I suppose you don’t like Alex either?

  2. When the evil warmonger wants no part of your scheme you know you have reached the lowest of the low.

    1. A Reaganite, mixed in with the Putinistas. They must have just assumed that Bolton was just a sell out, like them, who sucked up to previous Bush Administrations? They didn’t realise that Bolton may be a nut job, but he’s a nut job with an ideology. Probably the most dangerous type of politician there is, in a Free Democracy? Until the Traitors, working for Putin took over. What a shock to the system Bolton must have turned out to be? . . . 🤔

    1. @pcwcol the man is a billionaire I doubt it he’s been singing the same stuff he said the same ideas for over 30 years it’s your homeboys it keeps flipping the script it’s your Biden’s who’s in Rich and their selves it’s your Pelosi and Clinton’s that enrich their selves

    2. @miguel romo I coudn’t agree more. Trump is a great president. Too bad he’s prejudiced against dark-skinned people.

    1. He fears the moustache.Trump’s a man baby so maybe he can’t grow one.Or he killed his facial hair with that orange goo on his face.

    2. @bigpimpdaddy69 sdny is federal but they can refer criminal investigations to the state level of state laws were broken

  3. Every White House House cronies are throwing each other deep into the swamp. Better swim up for air quick.

    1. @Tommy Middlefinger
      we always knew the leftist swamp was that bad. Trump is getting rid of it now.
      —————————————————
      Trump has filled the swamp with a salad of nuclear waste and sewage.

      There has never been anything as corrupt as the Trump Whitehouse.

    2. @Booker T. Washin’Em That is the lamest of arguments. Y’all spent over two decades investigating Mrs. Clinton and have yet to find a charge against her, but it’s not enough, investigate more, but two years on the mango Mussolini is too much? GTFO.

  4. Never thought I would have even the slightest bit of a positive thought about John Bolton. If HE thinks things are scary crazy, then things are scary crazy. ‘Cause Bolton is scary crazy himself and has been for decades.

    1. @Ash Roskell
      If there were ever any ”Protected Species” in his mustache, Bolton would have invaded them already.

  5. “I will surround myself only with the best and most serious people.” – said the man who’s personal attorney
    is under criminal investigation, though not to be confused with his former attorney who is currently in jail.

    1. @JazlDazl If it walks like a duck..DJT is finally experiencing the lifetime of karma he deserves. From day 1 I have firmly believed DJT needed to become president to motivate the consequences of his actions. And due to TOrg. being privately owned there was no oversight for his actions. When he became president he cont’d to pursue his corrupt ways except as president there are checks and balances.

    2. Bruh… see what kat Williams had to say about that. I promise you, you’ll be laughing your butt off… lol

    1. He has a true love for the USA . Forget and forgive his craziness, he had better sence than the other people in the white house. !

  6. When I see all this corruption, I think of all the Police Unions that endorsed Trump. Police theorize that criminals hang together. Hmmm. Ijs

    1. Critical thinking seems to be lacking in our world at present. Republicans who continue to support Trump need to be warned that they will not be able to hide from this one in the future. They have lost the trust of most of America.

    2. On a related tangent: this is why I don’t understand people who advocate for gun bans. Who do they exactly think they will be turning their weapons over to?

  7. When people like Sessions and Bolton act in any way Ethical with any amount of conscience; We Know WE ARE IN DEEP “Doo Doo”.

    1. The Doo Doo is F……Deep when national security take a back set to protecting someone who will forsake an allie who has fought beside our troops,stood with America against Isis,and then to be sinically boisterous about it putting The United States of America in such a dim light with our other allies,say what yoi will it’s been time to speak up.If something isn’t done quick America may find ourselves standing all alone….

    2. Sessions gets half a point from me for that , but he made great damage to illegal immigrant children . Bolton gets a full point from me .

  8. Trump’s entire administration is afraid of him, now they all risk going to jail. They seem to want to speak up after being exposed, hoping to avoid jail time. Every hand Trump shakes receive a new piece of jewelry known as handcuffs.

    1. So Bolton knew what Guiliani was up to was wrong and what Trump did was illegal, but he failed to alert the proper authorities. Bolton is part of the cover up, same as every other person who knew what happened.

    2. @Dr. TJ Bolton would be part of the cover up if he was involved in moving the phone call to the other server. Knowing of the incident and being a part of the cover up are entirely two different things. As of right now unless he had some sort of legal obligation to have reported the incident Bolton is a witness.

    3. @845835ab
      I believe every person in government has a duty to report wrong doing, especially illegal wrong doing. They work for and are paid by the American people and the American people have a right to know what they are getting for their money. It would be easy to dismiss the way I think as “idealism”, but it’s only way to begin to end corruption.

    4. @Dr. TJ What you believe and what is an actual crime may be two entirely different things. Would you also like to live in a country where you can be prosecuted purely based on what another believes instead of what the law is because if so I am sure there are plenty of countries out there that have that standard of law.
