Judge says government's suit over Bolton book can proceed
Read full article: Judge says government's suit over Bolton book can proceedThe Justice Department alleges that Bolton's book, โThe Room Where It Happened,โ contains classified information, and the government sued in June to try to prevent the release. Though the book was published, a suit accusing Bolton of breaking agreements with the government by disclosing classified information and by failing to complete a required pre-publication review can proceed, U.S District Judge Royce Lamberth said in a 27-page opinion. His decision Thursday clears the way for the Justice Department's suit to move forward, including the government's efforts to seize proceeds from the book. The judge said the government had reasonably shown that Bolton disclosed classified information without first confirming that it was unclassified. But White House officials later conducted a second review that they said identified classified information still in the book.

Bolton lawyers seek to question Trump officials over book
Read full article: Bolton lawyers seek to question Trump officials over bookWASHINGTON โ Lawyers for former national security adviser John Bolton told a judge Thursday they want to interview White House officials following new allegations that a pre-publication review of his tell-all book was politicized in an effort to block its release. A lawsuit over Bolton's book, including on the question of whether the Justice Department is entitled to proceeds from the publication, is still pending even though a judge in June denied a request for an injunction to block its release. The book, which details Bolton's 17 months as Trump's national security adviser, contains descriptions of conversations with foreign leaders that could be seen as politically damaging to the president. The Justice Department in June sued Bolton to immediately block the release of the book. โWhat is unprecedented here is a national security adviser releasing his memoir (of his time as) a national security adviser within months of leaving that job,โ said Justice Department lawyer Jennifer Dickey.

Judge weighs US bid to stop release of John Bolton's book
Read full article: Judge weighs US bid to stop release of John Bolton's bookFILE - In this Sept. 30, 2019, file photo, former national security adviser John Bolton gestures while speakings at the Center for Strategic and International Studies in Washington. U.S. District Judge Royce Lamberth did not immediately rule, saying he wants to review additional information in a case that raises core First Amendment and national security concerns. Boltons lawyers argued that he had labored painstakingly for months with the White House to address concerns over classified information. Boltons lawyers have argued that the White House assertions of classified material are a pretext to censor him over a book the administration simply finds unflattering. Trump on Thursday called the book a compilation of lies and made up stories intended to make him look bad.
