A federal judge expressed doubt that he could stop the upcoming publication of the book by former national security adviser John Bolton
"The horse, as we used to say in Texas, seems to be out of the barn," Judge Royce Lamberth of the DC District Court, said during a hearing Friday."It certainly looks difficult to me about what I can do about those books all over the country."Lamberth didn't make a decision at the almost two-hour hearing on Friday and said he will wait to review more details from the Justice Department before deciding. Bolton's book is scheduled to be released Tuesday.
"How do I decide these types of people [in the administration] are telling the truth that the republic is going to crumble? As a court, how do I deal with that?," Lamberth asked.Bolton has said he worked extensively with Knight for months to make sure no classified details were revealed in his manuscript.
