“Lucky for Bolton, the assassin was an FBI informant,” 60 Minutes reported, portraying the assassination plot as a credible threat.
However, DOJ charging papers illustrated that the “plot” was largely fabricated, and that Bolton was never actually in danger. On top of that, the DOJ has asserted that the man who attempted hiring the FBI informant was a part of Iran’s IRGC-QF, but charging papers demonstrated that investigators never confirmed this claim.
Moreover, it turns out that a key FBI official presiding over this manufactured assassination plot was Steven D’Antuono. He was the same official who was in charge of the Detroit field office during the sketchy Gretchen Whitmer kidnapping plot prior to being transferred to head the DC field office during the January 6, 2021 storming of the Capitol.
