WASHINGTON - The White House told former national security adviser John Bolton that a book reportedly containing damaging evidence for President Donald Trump cannot be published because it breaks secrecy laws.

The National Security Council said after preliminary review of the manuscript - a vetting process applied to any White House employees writing books - that it contained"significant amounts of classified information". Democrats are pressing for the Senate to subpoena Bolton after reports that his White House memoir The Room Where it Happened corroborates the abuse-of-power impeachment charge against Trump.

Several hours before the NSC letter went public, Trump lashed out at Bolton on Twitter, saying he had written a"nasty & untrue book. All Classified National Security."
