A military tribunal formed of three senior Marine Corps officers convicted former National Security Advisor John Bolton of treason and sentenced him to death last Friday, following a brief but heated trial at which Bolton admitted he was a globalist and had fed Trump faulty intelligence during his short stint in the administration.
As reported, Bolton was taken into custody on January 20 after President Trump revoked his Secret Service privileges. Bolton’s once trusted Secret Service detail turned on him, handing him off to JAG agents at the Washington Naval Shipyards, from where they brought him to Joint Base Andrews and put his treasonous ass aboard a C-17 Globemaster heading for JAG’s internment facility at Camp Blaz, Guam. JAG sources told RNN the flight was full, occupied by 130 Deep Staters—mostly former federal employees—and a body of military policemen.
Since we were previously told that Bolton would go to GITMO to see Admiral Leah Reynolds—who replaced Admiral French on February 1—we asked the source whether Trump’s recent announcement about filling GITMO with illegal aliens influenced the change of venue.
As an aside, we heard rumors Trump fired French upon learning that the Admiral had been executing Deep Staters without first putting them on trial. Official GITMO and Pensacola sources dismissed the rumors, calling them groundless nonsense and saying that Adm. French, having served his country since 1992, retired honorably.
Of Bolton, he wouldn’t answer definitively but said, “Logistical decision. Right now, GITMO has beds and staff to house 3,000, and many of those cells are full. Theoretically, it could hold ten times that amount, but it would take a time-consuming, exhaustive, expensive overhaul. We have opinions on that, but Trump’s POTUS and makes the decisions. Why should it matter where Bolton goes if justice was served.”
That justice arrived swiftly.
Special Trial Council Rear Admiral Johnathon T. Stephens, whose impressive courtroom expertise led to the conviction of Georgia Deep State Judge Scott Mcaffee in May 2024, presided over the case, instructing the panelists to base their verdict only on the evidence, not feelings or biases.
Representing himself, Bolton unhesitatingly interjected: “I object to this mockery of justice. It’s only to satisfy an insane, mercurial man’s personal vendetta. You should know, Admiral, that my career was built on supporting the Armed Forces and recommending our troops fight instead of sleeping in barracks. I’ve served real presidents.”
“Let the record reflect the Defendant, John Bolton, does not consider Trump the lawfully elected President of the United States,” Adm. Stephens said.
“You’re a pathetic MAGA judge,” Bolton said.
“I serve the United States Government without passion or prejudice, and one more outburst—one more time, and you’ll wear a gag until we’re done,” the Admiral replied sharply.
He entered as evidence a national security document that Bolton had allegedly placed on Trump’s desk, the Resolute Desk in the Oval Office, on September 3, 2019, a week before Trump fired him. It was an intelligence assessment of North Korea’s nuclear capabilities and asserted that Kim Jong Un had elevated the country’s readiness status to the highest level and had 32 Hwasong-15 ICMBS fueled and ready to launch against South Korea, Hawaii, and, possibly, the Continental United States. In the threat analysis, Bolton urged Trump to preemptively strike Pyongyang massively. It was an easily disprovable fabrication. South Korea had not detected any heightened activity to the north. Satellite surveillance showed no troop movements consistent with North Korea’s nuclear doctrine. In advance of a strike, North Korea’s leadership, especially Kim Jong Un, would be deep underground, in a fortified bunker, but he had been seen in public, appearing at State-sponsored photo ops, at around the same time. Moreover, Trump had recently visited North Korea and met with Kim Jong Un at the DMZ Summit, where the two leaders shaped a tenuous yet cordial acquaintance.
That Trump shook hands with Kim Jong Un enraged Bolton, according to his memoirs.
Admiral Stephens handed Bolton a copy of the intelligence report. “Did you author this document?”
A bespectacled Bolton glanced at the paper and furrowed his brow. “I most certainly did,” he said proudly.
“Knowing it was fiction?” the Admiral queried.
“What’s fiction today might be reality tomorrow,” Bolton said. “Whatever I did—I did to protect the United States. Trump’s a fool, a simpleton, malleable and easily manipulated by anyone who smiles at him.”
“You’re a practiced manipulator, Mr. Bolton, but he didn’t fall for your attempts to manipulate him,” the Admiral responded.
Bolton smirked. “I never smiled at him.”
