The Trump administration sued John Bolton Tuesday to delay the release of the former national security adviser’s forthcoming tell-all book about his stint in the Trump White House.
Justice Department lawyers asserted in the complaint that Bolton’s book, “The Room Where It Happened: A White House Memoir,” is “rife” with classified information.
“This is a civil action by the United States to prevent Defendant John R. Bolton, a former National Security Advisor, from compromising national security by publishing a book containing classified information,” government lawyers said in a complaint filed in federal court in Washington, D. C.
Bolton is reportedly set to accuse President Trump of a series of “Ukraine-like transgressions” while in office.
The book is scheduled for release on June 23.
