President Donald Trump's former national security adviser, John Bolton, has been indicted on 18 counts under the Espionage Act for allegedly mishandling classified information. He is accused of sharing more than 1,000 pages of material related to national defense with unauthorized individuals.

The indictment marks the third time in recent weeks the Department of Justice has secured criminal charges against one of Trump's critics, including former FBI Director James Comey and New York Attorney General Letitia James.
