Judge: Book May Proceed Despite Bolton’s Gambling with U.S. National Security

A federal judge ruled Saturday that former national security adviser John Bolton can move forward in publishing his tell-all book despite efforts by the Trump administration to block the release because of concerns that classified information could be exposed.
