The federal judge handling a lawsuit alleging that former national security adviser John Bolton included highly classified information in his tell-all book appears to be entirely unimpressed by new claims from a key player in the review of the manuscript

.

After the initial legal skirmish in June, before the release date of Bolton’s book, Lamberth turned down as futile the government’s request for a restraining order to block publication. He then went on to excoriate Bolton for abandoning the prepublication review process in midstream, suggesting that the former national security adviser’s actions may have constituted a crime.

“No, your honor,” Dickey replied, adding later: “What’s unprecedented here is a national security adviser releasing a memoir of his time as national security adviser within mere months of leaving that job.” However, Bolton lawyer Charles Cooper said the case turns on a careful reading of the classified-information agreements, and on Bolton’s good-faith belief that the manuscript didn’t contain any classified information and didn’t even delve into subjects related to the more-protected SCI programs, which includes sensitive intelligence gathering.
