FWIW, "yours for the restoration of the Republic" was a common salutation American fascists gave to each other in the 1950s and 1960s. This is from a 1952 letter by Ohio white supremacist terrorist Peter Xavier. The rest of the rhetoric here might be familiar too.

Ok jokes aside: Lawfare’s @benjaminwittes.lawfaremedia.org and our friends over at @thebulwark.com really were the first to report the FBI activity at John Bolton’s home. The New York Post published its story after their initial reports.
WASHINGTON, Aug 22 (Reuters) - FBI agents searched the home of John Bolton, a former adviser to U.S. President Donald Trump turned persistent critic, on Friday as part of a national security probe, a source briefed on the matter said.
Federal Bureau of Investigation agents began searching his house in the Washington suburb of Bethesda, Maryland, at 7 a.m. as part of a probe ordered by FBO Director Kash Patel, according to the New York Post, which first reported the raid.OCBS NEWS
Bolton did not respond to multiple attempts to reach him. The New York Post first reported Bolton's home was being searched by the FBI.

Bolton served in Trump's first term in the White House for just over a year, but has since become a sharp critic of the president. He has said he believed Trump would use the Department of Justice to enact a "retribution presidency."
The FBI on Friday said it conducted "court-authorized activity in the area" when asked about a search at Bolton's Maryland home.
"There is no threat to public safet We have no further comment," the FBI added. The search of Bolton's home was first reported by the New York Post. Bolton's office declined immediate comment.

The publishing industry is also to blame for creating an incentive for both witnesses and participants in state crimes to stay silent. John Bolton is among many officials who chose to serve his bank account instead of his country at the moment the truth mattered most.

John Bolton refused to testify at Trump's impeachment, preferring to sacrifice national security to make money with his book. He could have helped bring accountability and erode the mafia state, enduring that Trump and his cohort could not return. He did not, so now the mafia state comes for him.
