The Walrus May Be Penned
Timothy Birdnow
Looks like the Walrus is going to cop a plea!
FTA:
Bolton is expected to plead guilty to one count of retaining sensitive government information, according to The Washington Post.
The deal would vastly reduce any prison time Bolton would serve if found guilty at trial.
Bolton was accused of sending "diary-like” recollections of highly secret work to various relatives who he said would help him with his memoirs.
Bolton has agreed to pay a $2.25 million fine.
The Walrus was highly critical of President Trump after he was sacked as National Security Advisor. Mr. Bolton is and remains a war hawk -ever eager for U.S. involvement in foreign wars, a philosophy at odds with hte President who has largely sought to stay out of war as much as possible.
I'm not sure what Bolton thinks about the President's approach to Iran but I'm sure he is not in favor of this negotiated settlement strategy.
At any rateHe faces a two million dollar fine and up to five years in the slammer. No doubt the negotiations are to keep him out of prison.
Bolton is accused of leaking classified information in his 2020 book.
