John Bolton, Who Was in Charge of USAID’s Policy and Budget, Reveals He Received a USAID Hand Grenade with His Name Engraved on It as ‘Farewell Gift’

BOLTON: “I might say I’ve got some personal experience here. I was in charge of policy and budget at USAID during the Reagan Administration, when we undertook a major effort to fix it. And I’m going to show you my farewell present from AID. You can see it’s a hand grenade. And it says on it: John R. Bolton, Truest Reaganaut, AID 1983. This is a style of government. And — and that’s the way we approached it.”
