John Bolton Denied Publication Approval by White House Three Days Before Selected Manuscript Leak…
Conservative Treehouse ^ | Sundance

Three days before the New York Times received a selectively leaked copy of a book manuscript written by John Bolton, Mr. Bolton’s lawyers were informed by the White House the manuscript could not be published. [Source: John Roberts]

On January 23rd John Bolton was denied authorization to publish. On the evening of January 26th the New York Times wrote about a copy of the transcript. It now appears Bolton’s team held a retaliatory motive and may have leaked the manuscript themselves.

The Times will publish it anyway, like the Pentagon Papers.

Sounds like Bolton.
He really thinks the world revolves around him and his opinion.

Bolton is a scumbag, let’s hope the Senators do the right thing and close down this circus.

There isn’t a war that Bolton wouldn’t want..he would go to war with his own neighbor if he could..he wants to go to war with Iran, North Korea, etc etc..why President Trump would pick someone who is the complete opposite of him I dont understand

It’s no wonder why Trump blasted Bolton on Twitter this morning.

notice how the headline says the “White House” so as to infer Trump denied, when in reality, as per the letter heading is from the National Security Council. As per protocol ex-employees that intend to publish a book has to get clearance from NSC.

“””””””””””On January 23rd John Bolton was denied authorization to publish””””””””””””

So in that case wouldn’t he be hit for fraud because he is accepting money from people who are pre- ordering a book that cannot be published?

I think it more likely that Vindman’s twin leaked a version of it.

Has that letter been verified and/or released to the media? I have not seen this reported yet, even by Fox.
