John Bolton: Jake Sullivan home invasion serves as a reminder to be ‘vigilant against these threats’

Former U.N. Ambassador and National Security Adviser John Bolton joins Andrea Mitchell to weigh in on the security breach at National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan’s home and to discuss how an intruder could have gotten past Secret Service agents. “This turned out to be benign. I have to say, Jake Sullivan showed courage and determination to confront the fella and tell him to get out of his house. It could have been a lot worse,” says Bolton. “It's a reminder, I think, that we just have to be vigilant against these threats.”

All those secret service agents need to lose their credentials and fired immediately for incompetence with no questions asked for their incompetence

[s.lionelmcauley]

erratic mental behavior starts with members of Congress, yes start there.

[BlueJazzBoyNZ]

We know that even Pence, doesn't trust the Secret Service.

[judykinsman]

No Bolton. It’s a reminder that that president you served normalized extremism & violence as acceptable behavior.

[Rune-Thorne]

So the secret service is filled with a huge clown show these days....seems we need to open up hiring and cut loose the clowns.

[abberepair]

John, when your opinions may have mattered, you kept them to yourself! I call that TRAITOR

[TheCommunicationCoach]

Locked doors and windows at all times is a good first step, even little kids know that.

[Dovietail]

SOMEBODY has empowered the bullies and emotionally disturbed. I wonder WHO? 🤔🤔🤔

[micheleconner]

Think I'd be getting some new secret service people. Doesn't he have an alarm system? You'd think that it'd be one that would let you know if your doors were locked or not.

[Grannathinks]

These are secret service agents? Wow, I think I would rather depend on boy or girl scouts. At least they'd take it seriously, kids do.

President Ronald Reagan closed all the Big Psychiatric facilities in the 1980’s. Nowhere to put the severely mentally ill anymore!

[joyfullone]

Was this accidentally on purpose by the SS?

[lalaj]

Sounds more like the Secret Service let it happen, no accident.

[DJWillyGMPLS]

Someone needs to sit down with Andrea and say it’s time

[bobbyg]

Was the guy an illegal immigrant like David DePape?

[Bat_Boy]

Walmart has better security. They always have security around the exit.

[sparkle]

This is unacceptable.
Leaving the door open?

[lamontcranston]

WHY WOULD YOU INTERVIEW THIS OLD LIAR AS THOUGH HE WAS A LEGITIMATE SOURCE OF INFORMATION.?

[jasonmiller]

Lock your doors, and keep a shotgun handy. Ultimately your personal protection is up to you!

[ahthisisgood]

Well...the secret service prefers Trump properties. What do you expect...
