On Friday, FBI agents searched the home of John Bolton, a former adviser to U.S. President Donald Trump and now a persistent critic, as part of a national security probe. The investigation is focused on the potential criminal release of classified information.

• FBI conducted "court authorized activity" at Bolton's home in Bethesda, Maryland, and his Washington D.C. office.
• Bolton served as U.S. ambassador to the United Nations and White House national security adviser during Trump's first term.
• This search marks the latest instance of the Trump administration reportedly using government power against perceived enemies.
