Former National Security Advisor John Bolton has called for the FBI to conduct investigations into the Senate confirmations of Matt Gaetz and Tulsi Gabbard. Bolton's demand comes amid concerns regarding the appointments of both individuals, which he believes should be scrutinized prior to their confirmation. The request has sparked discussions about the implications of using federal investigations as a political tool, particularly in the context of appointments made by former President Donald Trump. Critics have questioned the fairness of such investigations, highlighting a perceived inconsistency in the scrutiny applied to Trump's nominees compared to those of President Joe Biden.
