  • Why The FBI Searched John Bolton’s Home And Office

    Why The FBI Searched John Bolton’s Home And Office
    Aug 25 2025
    Another Friday, another move against a perceived enemy of the president.

    Last week, the FBI searched the Maryland home and Washington office of President Trump’s former national security advisor, John Bolton.

    Since he was fired from the administration during Trump’s first term, Bolton has turned into one of the president’s most vocal critics.

    Vice President JD Vance confirmed in an interview that aired this weekend that this raid was in part connected to a criminal investigation over Bolton’s handling of classified documents and information.

    What does this investigation say about the priorities of the Justice Department in Trump’s second term?

  • 'If You Can Keep It': Trump Takes Aim At Mail-In Voting

    'If You Can Keep It': Trump Takes Aim At Mail-In Voting
    Aug 25 2025
    "Corrupt" is the word President Trump is using, without evidence, to describe mail-in voting. It's how almost one third of Americans cast their ballots in the last election.

    States including Florida and Pennsylvania also saw recent jumps in GOP mail-in ballots, after President Trump in his campaign called for votes by any means possible, including by mail.

    And while mail-in voting has historically favored Democrats, there is no evidence of the fraud Trump is claiming. But his push to end it fits a pattern: our President wants to change how elections are run in the United States.

    In this installment of our weekly series, “If You Can Keep It,” we get to the issue right at the very heart of U.S. democracy: the ability to cast a ballot in free and fair elections.
