Longtime Republican strategist Roger Stone ridiculed former National Security Adviser John Bolton on Friday after federal agents raided Bolton’s home in Bethesda, Maryland, as reported by Fox News.

“Good morning. John Bolton. How does it feel to have your home raided at 6 o'clock in the morning?” Stone wrote on X, drawing a parallel to his own FBI raid in Fort Lauderdale six years earlier.

In 2019, agents raided Stone’s residence in a case widely criticized after CNN appeared on the scene.

“Wait! Where was CNN?” Stone added, pointing to media involvement during his own arrest. He also repeated a phrase he has used since 2019, stating, “What goes around comes around – and Roger Stone still ‘did nothing wrong.’”

Stone posted a photo of himself from the day of his arrest wearing a “Roger Stone Did Nothing Wrong” shirt, a phrase that became a slogan among his supporters following his legal battle.

Later that morning, Stone escalated his criticism of Bolton, sharing a split image of the two men. “The man on the left had his home raided at 6 am because he did something wrong. The man on the right had his home raided at 6 am because he didn’t. Karma is b**ch,” Stone wrote.

Stone, who entered politics as a supporter of Arizona Senator Barry Goldwater in 1964 and later advised President Richard Nixon, also mocked Bolton in a follow-up post.

He issued a parody statement claiming Bolton admitted his mustache was “appropriated from a member of the Village People.”

Bolton, who held diplomatic roles in the administrations of Presidents George H.W. Bush and George W. Bush, later joined President Donald Trump’s administration as National Security Adviser.

He eventually broke with Trump over the administration’s COVID-19 response, foreign policy disputes, and the impeachment proceedings.

Trump repeatedly criticized Bolton following their split, with Stone often defending the president. Their feud reignited in November when Bolton attacked Trump’s consideration of former Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard for the role of director of national intelligence.

Tulsi Gabbard, director of National Intelligence, arrives for the Senate Committee on Intelligence hearing to examine worldwide threats on Tuesday, March 25, 2025 in Washington, DC.

Bolton labeled Gabbard a “serious threat to national security,” prompting Stone to respond: “Watching war pig John Bolton attack the appointment of Tulsi Gabbard as DNI makes me all the more certain that she is precisely the right person for the job.”

Following the raid on Bolton’s home, FBI agents were also seen at his personal office in Washington, D.C.’s DuPont Circle neighborhood. Agents carried boxes from the office as part of the ongoing investigation.

Federal officials have not disclosed additional details regarding the nature of the search.
