John Bolton is a raging Islamophobe, and on April 9, he’s set to become President Donald Trump’s national security adviser. Trump announced Thursday, to the alarm of foreign policy experts around the world, that Bolton would replace H.R. A less well-known but equally troubling aspect of Bolton’s career is his years of involvement with some of the most hateful and conspiratorial elements of the anti-Muslim movement in America. “Bolton is the last person who should be entrusted with this critically-important position, which requires sound judgment and a fact-based approach to national security matters,” Awad said. Since 2013, Bolton has served as chairman of the Gatestone Institute, an anti-Muslim think tank.
