The Justice Department launched a criminal investigation into former national security adviser John Bolton over whether he mishandled classified information

The judge added, however, that although the government was not justified in seeking an injunction against Bolton, his "unilateral conduct raises grave national security concerns."

"Defendant Bolton has gambled with the national security of the United States," US District Judge Royce Lamberth wrote in his June 20 ruling. "He has exposed his country to harm and himself to civil liability. But these facts do not control the motion before the Court. The government has failed to establish that an injunction will prevent irreparable harm."

The Justice Department said in June that Bolton violated protocol and did not wait until the National Security Council cleared his book before its scheduled release. But Bolton said one official had cleared the manuscript after a months-long review and that the White House was intentionally stalling the process to prevent the release of a book that would be unflattering to President Donald Trump.

"History will show he'll be right down there with James Buchanan and others of that ilk because he really, I don't think, to this day fully understands the magnitude of his responsibilities as president, and I don't think that he brings to the office the kind of attention and care and prudence that I think are required in a good president," BoltonBolton added that when he first took on the role in Trump's administration, he believed the office would "shape"...

Perfect, Bolton should be in trouble...but, in trouble for keeping these secrets too long to be of any help to America.

Perfect timing. This will dredge up all of those Bolton revelations just before the election.
