John Bolton, former national security adviser to Donald Trump and a critic, is expected to face federal charges soon, potentially next week, two federal officials said. Any charges would be brought by the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Maryland, following FBI searches of Bolton’s home and D.C. office in August tied to a national security probe for classified records. Affidavits referenced possible Espionage Act violations. Bolton’s attorney says any marked documents date to the George W. Bush era. DOJ declined comment. Bolton would be the third Trump critic charged since late September, after indictments of James Comey and Letitia James.
