George Conway livestreamed the FBI search at John Bolton's home after noticing social media reports and living nearby. He arrived to find a crowd of media and neighbors. Agents removed a large volume of materials likely related to Bolton's White House work; those materials will undergo review to determine whether any constitute evidence of a crime. Conway emphasized that collecting many items at the scene does not necessarily indicate a large case, because agents often seize broadly and later narrow focus. Conway expressed skepticism that Bolton, described as a careful, fastidious lawyer, would have stored classified materials similar to those recovered at Mar-a-Lago.
I found out about it basically because [FBI Director] Kash Patel had been talking about it, and people were talking about it on social media, Conway said. I live 10 minutes away, so I was there by 8 o'clock. But by the time I got to John Bolton's house, there was already a crowd of media and neighbors and onlookers there. So, I just found out about it like everyone else.
We have no idea whether there's anything in there that is ultimately could provide evidence against John Bolton. I mean. I'm sure that there's they're pulling out anything that would be related to his work at the White House. And then they're going to have to review it to see whether there's anything in there that would constitute evidence of a crime.
They don't have time to read everything at the house. They're just collecting things that fit possibly the general description, and as in what happened at Mar-a-Lago. And then they have to focus in on what materials could possibly be relevant. I doubt that John Bolton, being the careful lawyer that he is and the fastidious person that he is, had anything like what Donald Trump had in his basement.
