lol at all the Trump supporters who kept insisting that Bolton was anything but a lying self-serving snake. Could you have been any more wrong?

Would love to see Trump go after Bolton legally for leaking classified information. How ironic and beautiful that would be. Bolton ensnared by the same national security state he did so much to engorge and glorify. Rest assured, if Bolton is prosecuted, it will be based on "national security" needs... lol

A neocon warhawk is Ethereal's new hero. Fraud much?

Several media outlets have reported that the irascible veteran national security official circulated a draft manuscript of the book containing the quid pro quo arguments to close associates before delivering it to the White House Records Management Directorate for pre-publication review, as required, and could face criminal prosecution if proof he did so surfaces.
“If your manuscript includes classified information, then you’re committing a felony by passing it around,” a former White House official told RealClearPolitics.

If true Bolton may be in some serious trouble.

That’s what you took away from the OP? Interesting.

If Bolton is now out of government....he probably shouldn't have a high level security clearance anyhoo.

He can't address the facts, so he just lies. It's what I expect from him.

It’s a common tactic on the forum these days.

I don't think many Trump supporters understood the Bolton appointment. This one didn't. Some said it was just to scare Iran and North Korea. Bolton is a huge neocon globalist and that matches nothing in the trump platform.

It seems pretty straight forward...

Several media outlets have reported that the irascible veteran national security official circulated a draft manuscript of the book containing the quid pro quo arguments to close associates before delivering it to the White House Records Management Directorate for pre-publication review, as required, and could face criminal prosecution if proof he did so surfaces. “If your manuscript includes classified information, then you’re committing a felony by passing it around,” a former White House official told RealClearPolitics.

Bolton has denied leaking the book excerpts, insisting in a statement that “there was absolutely no coordination with the New York Times or anyone else regarding the appearance of information about this book.”

If he leaked classified information, then he's more than likely going to be prosecuted. We should find out soon enough.
