Lawyer: US drops lawsuit, grand jury probe over Bolton book
Poll
5 – Very
The Justice Department has abandoned its lawsuit against John Bolton, former President Donald Trump’s onetime national security adviser, over his book that officials argued disclosed classified information, Bolton’s representatives said Wednesday. They said prosecutors also have dropped a grand jury investigation over the book’s publication.
The Trump administration sued last year to block the release of Bolton’s book, “The Room Where It Happened,” and to recover copies of the book that had already been distributed. The book, released in the run-up to the 2020 presidential election, offered a behind-the-scenes, and unflattering, account of Trump’s foreign policy dealings. It described how Trump asked China’s President Xi Jinping to help the American’s reelection prospects and how Trump had pressured his Ukraine counterpart for politically charged investigations.
