Former Trump adviser John Bolton pleads guilty to mishandling sensitive documents

John Bolton, a national security adviser to President Trump, pleaded guilty to mishandling classified information by recording sensitive details in a personal diary and sharing it with family members. He agreed to pay a $2.25 million penalty and could face up to five years in prison, with the DOJ stating his actions jeopardized national security. His lawyer contrasted Bolton's plea with Trump's refusal to accept accountability for similar charges.
