Now that Trump has been acquitted on both charges by the Senate, House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff has revealed his attempt to use Bolton in the hearings backfired badly.

During an interview on MSNBC, Schiff told host Rachel Maddow that Bolton refused to submit a sworn affidavit during Trump's Senate trial about his alleged misconduct in withholding military aid to Ukraine.

Maddow noted that Rep. Jerrold Nadler, D-N.Y. told reporters earlier the House would likely subpoena him after Trump's acquittal.

Schiff added, “For whatever reason, he was willing to testify before the Senate but apart from that seems intent on saving it for his book. He’ll have to answer for that.”

In other words, Bolton claimed in his new book that quid pro quo existed and that Trump directly froze military aid to Ukraine until they announcement an investigation into Hunter and Joe Biden.

But when Schiff asked Bolton to sign a legal document under oath about those allegations, he refused.

And that speaks volumes.

A new book written by Bolton is being reviewed by the National Security Council, where portions of it were leaked to the New York Times.

Deep State Resistance types obviously corrupted the review process and leaked a passage of his upcoming book.

In the leaked pieces, Bolton reportedly wrote that President Donald Trump told him personally that he was withholding aid for Ukraine over favors he requested from them.

The timing of the leak is obviously suspicious.

It's also important to remember that Bolton is also likely still angry with Trump for his public firing and is trying to sell a book, which lends credence to skeptics who say Bolton is saying whatever he can for attention and more money.
