“John Bolton should be executed!” “John Bolton should swing for a tall oak tree!” Now before you say Noah that’s too harsh, those are NOT my words… I would never talk like that. Those are John Bolton’s words! Those are the words of John Bolton saying what he’d like to do to Julian Assange and Edward Snowden who he claims committed espionage and treason. Watch here: TRANSCRIPT: If he gets to the United States, he’ll get due process here, and I hope he gets at least 176 years in jail for what he did. I’m not bothered by the death penalty in this country, and I think crimes like espionage that harm the security and the safety of innocent American civilians deserve the strictest punishment. My view is that Snowden committed treason. He ought to be convicted of that, and then he ought to swing from a tall oak tree. Well, he should be prosecuted, and if he’s found guilty, he should be punished to the fullest extent possible. And what is that? Death. You think he should be killed? Yes. Backup here if needed: John Bolton called for Assange, Snowden and Manning to be executed under the Espionage Act, for communicating true information to the public.Now Bolton faces 18 counts under the Espionage Act for mishandling national defense information. pic.twitter.com/pr0H7pkfUL — WikiLeaks (@wikileaks) October 17, 2025 Unfortunately for John Bolton, Johnny Boy himself just got Indicted on 18 counts under the Espionage Act: BREAKING: John Bolton Indicted On 18 Counts Under The Espionage Act!

The indictment charges Bolton with eight counts of transmission of national defense information (NDI) and 10 counts of unlawful retention of NDI. “There is one tier of justice for all Americans,” said Attorney General Pamela Bondi. “Anyone who abuses a position of power and jeopardizes our national security will be held accountable. No one is above the law.” “The FBI’s investigation revealed that John Bolton allegedly transmitted top secret information using personal online accounts and retained said documents in his house in direct violation of federal law,” said FBI Director Kash Patel. “The case was based on meticulous work from dedicated career professionals at the FBI who followed the facts without fear or favor. Weaponization of justice will not be tolerated, and this FBI will stop at nothing to bring to justice anyone who threatens our national security.” “Keeping Americans safe always has been, and always will be, the top priority for the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Maryland,” said U.S. Attorney Kelly O. Hayes for the District of Maryland. “If anyone endangers our national security, we’re committed to holding them accountable.” “The FBI is committed to protecting classified information to keep Americans safe. Anyone entrusted with this knowledge takes an oath and has a duty to safeguard it. The charges alleged in this indictment demonstrate there will be consequences for those who violate this responsibility,” said Special Agent in Charge William J. DelBagno of the FBI Baltimore Field Office. The indictment alleges that Bolton illegally transmitted NDI by using personal email and messaging application accounts to send sensitive documents classified as high as Top Secret. These documents revealed intelligence about future attacks, foreign adversaries, and foreign-policy relations. The indictment also alleges that Bolton illegally retained NDI documents within his home. These documents included intelligence on an adversary’s leaders as well as information revealing sources and collections used to obtain statements on a foreign adversary. If convicted, the defendant faces a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison for each count of unlawful retention of NDI and a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison for each count of transmission of NDI. A federal district court judge will determine any sentence after considering the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines and other statutory factors. The FBI Baltimore Field Office is investigating the case. Assistant U.S. Attorneys Thomas Sullivan and Robert Goldaris for the District of Maryland, Trial Attorneys Adam P. Barry and S. Derek Shugert of the National Security Division’s Counterintelligence and Export Control Section, and Trial Attorney Tanner Kroeger of the National Security Division’s National Security Cyber Section are prosecuting the case. An indictment is merely an allegation. All defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law. This absolutely cracked me up: John Bolton right now pic.twitter.com/q0Qs2MqnK8 — Bre ✟ (@BreFillmore) October 16, 2025 The NY Post had more details: A federal grand jury indicted former Trump national security adviser John Bolton Thursday on 18 counts of illegally hoarding or sending sensitive national security information — leaving the longtime pillar of the Republican foreign policy establishment facing decades in prison. The indictment in Greenbelt, Md. federal court alleges that Bolton sent sensitive national security documents through a personal AOL email account and knowingly transmitted materials to outside contacts while serving in the first Trump administration. Bolton, 76, served as President Trump’s national security adviser from April 2018 until his firing in September 2019. Upon leaving office, he pledged he did not have any classified documents or notes in his possession. However, those communications — some of which stayed on his AOL account — were exposed to bad actors when a foreign entity hacked Bolton’s email, according to a probable cause warrant unsealed last month. Bolton faces up to 10 years in prison on each count of the indictment. Federal agents searched Bolton’s Maryland home and Washington, DC office on Aug. 22 in connection with the long-running investigation, which FBI sources told The Post was mysteriously “shelved” during the administration of President Trump’s predecessor, Joe Biden. As usual, the Democrats were doing EXACTLY what they (falsely) accused President Trump of doing. LOCK HIM UP and don't drop the soap John.....
