US President Donald Trump on Friday called John Bolton "lowlife" and brushed off having any information about the FBI raids at the former National Security Adviser 's home.
FBI agents raided the home of Bolton in Bethesda, Maryland, at 7 am (US time), in a high-profile national security investigation. The federal agents conducted the raid as part of an investigation ordered by FBI Director Kash Patel .
While speaking to reporters, Trump accused Bolton of forcing George Bush to do "bombings" in the Middle East and added that the ex-NSA "wants to kill people."
"I'm not a fan of John Bolton. He's a real sort of lowlife," Trump told reporters and added that the Department of Justice would probably brief him on Friday about the search.
"He was one of the people that forced Bush to do the ridiculous bombings in the Middle East. He wants to always kill people. And he’s very bad at what he does. He’s not a smart guy… and he might be a very unpatriotic guy. We’re going to find out," he added.
