Six years ago I posted the attached blog decrying Trump’s attempt to stop publication of John Bolton’s White House memoir “The Room Where It Happened: A White House Memoir”.
It took six years. But Donald Trump got his revenge six years later.
John Bolton has been indicted and forced to accept a Plea Deal for exercising his First Amendment rights to free speech.
Trump has taken over the Department of Justice and is using it in the most brazen way to settle political scores.
The First Amendment and free speech mean nothing to Trump.
The worst part is the Mainstream Media and the American public is standing by while its right to publish is being crushed.
