Bolton Objected to Ukraine Pressure Campaign

“The effort to pressure Ukraine for political help provoked a heated confrontation inside the White House last summer that so alarmed John Bolton, then the national security adviser, that he told an aide to alert White House lawyers,” the New York Times reports.

“Mr. Bolton got into a sharp exchange on July 10 with Gordon Sondland, the Trump donor turned ambassador to the European Union, who was working with Rudy Giuliani, the president’s personal lawyer, to press Ukraine to investigate Democrats.”

Said Bolton: “Giuliani’s a hand grenade who’s going to blow everybody up.”
