He's the third prominent Trump adversary to face criminal charges in recent weeks, following former FBI Director James Comey and New York Attorney General Letitia James.

    Bolton was indicted in federal court in Maryland, where he lives and where prosecutors have been investigating whether he improperly retained classified materials…

    Oh, is that a crime?

      You might dislike this guy and not give a shit. But you shouldn’t ignore that the separation of powers is dismantled in plain sight.

      It’s absolutely by design that they start with someone who is as disliked as John Bolton. Before you realize it they will go after people you care about or who were serving your community.

        They already have gone after people I care about. They’ve been doing so for as long as I’ve had people to care about. I know things are bad. I also know things have been bad for longer than anyone I have ever known has been alive. Because America is the problem. Trump is just a faster, meaner, less intelligent version of the monster that has been poisoning our species for centuries.
