WSJ Slams Trump’s Bolton Pursuit as Vindictive Vendetta

The Wall Street Journal editorial board denounces President Trump’s case against former national security adviser John Bolton as “vindictive,” as Bolton faces a tentative plea deal reportedly pleading guilty to a single felony for mishandling classified documents tied to his memoir and paying a fine above $2 million; prosecutors allegedly pressured a plea to avoid high legal costs, and Bolton could face up to five years in prison, framing the episode as part of Trump’s broader personal-revenge campaign.
