John Bolton Pleads Guilty

Bolton admitted in federal court to misusing classified material that prosecutors said was used in his book โ€˜The Room Where It Happenedโ€™.

The guilty plea resolves a years-long investigation into his post-White House conduct.

Bolton, who served under Trump and later became a fierce opponent, could face prison time.

The case has reignited debate over classified information handling by former officials.
