Bolton left in September after disagreeing with Trump’s diplomatic outreach to adversaries.
The suit says Bolton failed to have the text vetted, meaning his book would be in “clear breach of agreements he signed as a condition of his employment and as a condition of gaining access to highly classified information”. He is believed to have taken meticulous notes during his various meetings with Trump and other senior personnel.
Bolton left in September after disagreeing with Trump’s diplomatic outreach to adversaries, notably North Korea and Afghanistan’s Taliban. Since then the two have become openly hostile and Bolton’s book has been touted as a tell-all from the Oval Office.In particular, Bolton alleges that Trump committed a host of impeachable offenses beyond pressuring Ukraine to investigate his political rival, Democrat Joe Biden.
It said Bolton and publishers reportedly resolved to release the book on June 23 “without defendant giving any prior notice to the NSC” or completing the pre-publication review process.
