He actually said "law firm", which I would argue is even more of a massacre, because the DOJ is at least the Executive Branch's legal arm, under the President. Law firms are private, though, and serve clients, which implicitly is saying Trump has turned them into lawyers for him as a person, not him as the President (which is fairly accurate).

[@Kaimli]

Why he didnt testify? I have a hunch, hear me out: you just dont get as much cash for a testomony as you do for a book deal.

[@uoabigaillevey]

Plus in order to testify and not perjure himself he would then be unable to publish the book full of lies that he penned.

[@nancyjay790]

More likely, publishing a book which merely detailed information Bolton gave in testimony would reduce sales. Neither John Bolton nor his publishers wanted that. As for his book, it appears to be aligned with testimony, news reports, and even the President's tweets. Whether you wish to believe that all of those sources are lying, that's up to you.

OBJECTION: I have a question regarding how he’s not allowed to talk with his lawyer about what’s in the book as from the perspective of contract law, which presumably he may not be as proficient in as a lawyer. especially if he believes the decision the government is making is based on false claims of classification since Knight already claimed it was fine, which could arguably support that conclusion. In that case what legal aid is presented for the person, since he has a right to a lawyer. The courts and government are separate entities for a reason, so based on that how can the government sensor what is said between a lawyer and their client. I understand the classification issue but in that case what systems are put in place for such a situation. Is there lawyers with the necessary clearance, can they be objective when they are beholden to the government for that clearance? What is the process for a lawyer gaining security clearance? And if there isn’t currently a system in place in your expert opinion (such that it is) what would you recommend?

[@paullees6687]

NAL but as long as someone's willing to foot the bill anyone can apply for a security clearance. It would actually be very marketable for a law firm to hold a clearance for situations like this. But there needs to be a justifiable reason to be read onto the firm to the specific info. Secure compartmentalized info is only authorized to distribute to those on a strict need to know basis and the original classifying authority for said info has the control to authorize distribution. As it stands obviously not one person ever reads over court documentation. Interns, aids, paralegals all get access to this info. With this in mind usually it poses a serious breach of security if secure info can be distributed to anyone without a classification. You don't even need "mens rea" if you were told some shit without the context of "hey be careful this is secret info" beforehand. Attorney-client privilege I guess could keep any government agency from directly asking if they were given classified info so that membrane-thin veil could conceivably save you. But generally speaking it's not great to rely on that.

What he told me and my brothers after my father passed was upsetting, vague, and curious. No honest details beyond one incident, but a lot of trips during certain times that made us scratch our chins as we picked over what we could in our memories. All I really know is I didn't know everything my dad was, but I remember him as a good man who had secrets. We cannot get his service uniform, most of what we can get is redacted. The government my father served knows how well he served them, but the same logic behind NDA's wipes away all good or bad evidence of that governments history. I guess my dad just worked on equipment, but he also saw the photos of countless people just fixing a central printer for photography development centers at Kodak around the world in the 70's through the 90's.
