Prosecutors in Maryland are now widely expected to file criminal charges in the coming days against disgraced former National Security Adviser John Bolton for hoarding and mishandling classified national defense information at his Maryland home.

The bombshell news was first reported by The Wall Street Journal, citing “people familiar with the matter.”

The news outlet reported:

Prosecutors in Maryland are expected in coming days to charge one of Trump’s first-term national security advisers, John Bolton, now a top Trump critic, with mishandling classified information, according to people familiar with the matter.

In Virginia, prosecutors are expected to seek an indictment of New York Attorney General Letitia James, who won a civil fraud case against Trump, on mortgage fraud charges that Siebert and others saw as weak, people familiar with the case said. James has denied wrongdoing.

Other prosecutors are investigating former CIA director John Brennan, another prominent Trump critic, and former FBI director Christopher Wray, who was originally appointed by Trump but enraged conservatives who came to believe he had wielded the bureau’s powers against them. Former officials have received subpoenas in recent days in the Wray inquiry, according to a person with direct knowledge of the matter.

Bolton, who has spent attacking Trump on CNN and in his memoir The Room Where It Happened, is accused of keeping notes, classified memos, and digital files that the National Security Council explicitly warned him to return.

Investigators allege he lied during his debriefing, claiming he had no notes from his White House tenure, only for the NSC to later discover otherwise.

On August 22, 2025, FBI agents executed court-authorized searches of Bolton’s Maryland home and his Washington, D.C. office as part of a federal investigation into possible improper retention, transmission, or loss of classified information.

According to unsealed court documents, agents seized multiple devices, computers, tablets, iPads, flash drives, and cellphones, along with boxes of documents labeled “Trump I-IV” and a binder titled “statements and reflections to Allied Strikes.”

The search warrant affidavit (partially redacted) references potential violations of the Espionage Act and statutes governing unauthorized transmission or retention of national defense information.
