Trump's claim that Bolton can publish his book when he leaves the White House doesn't support his claim that Bolton's conversations and contacts with him rise to the level of being classified.
Put even more clearly: if the material becomes fit to publish once Trump leaves office, by definition it's not classified. Classifications survive presidential turnover. It's obvious, therefore, that the restriction until Trump leaves office is purely political.

Resisters, some #TuesdayThoughts
We need to pace ourselves and remember we are in this together for the long haul.
While the events of the last week were not what we wanted, this bottomless well of corruption and grift the Trump administration is moves the odds in our favor.
The truth will come out. Their situation is not sustainable, which we will keep pointing out. Keep asking, "what happens when an unstoppable force keeps assembling?" We are the unstoppable force.
As long as the media continues portraying Democrats as disorganized, incompetent, bickering, and complaining...and we allow or contribute to it...Trump and the Republicans are winning.
If a certain candidate is yours, vote for them in the primary with gusto. That's what it's for. Vet them, talk about them. Nobody wants an electorate picking a candidate uninformed.
But we need a candidate who can build a coalition, not destroy it. #MondayMorning

Supportes of candidates booing other candidates at a Democratic debate usually leads to good outcomes. #DemocraticDebate #DemDebate

David Bernhardt was confirmed to Trump's cabinet on April 11 and is now facing ethics investigations as of April 15. A person dressed up like a swamp monster behind him because of his conflicts. Every Republican Senator voted to confirm him.

The House Intel and Financial Services Committees have issued subpoenas to Deutsche Bank and numerous other banks, seeking info about Trump's finances and the lenders' business dealings with Russians, people with knowledge of the investigation tell NYT.

Mueller did not exonerate Trump. William Barr explicitly stated that in his letter. Anyone who's claiming otherwise is lying, as Savannah Guthrie calmly stated this morning.
There's only 1 way for us to be able to assess the truth. #ReleaseTheFullMuellerReport
So, the #muellerreport is now the #barrletter and Barr thinks he can decide by himself whether what is in it requires indictments, even though Trump picked Barr knowing he believed one cannot indict a sitting President. #sundaynight
So Trump is going to declare a National Emergency over making Ann Coulter and a few right-wingers happy?
33 000 gun deaths happened in 2017. 47,000 people died from opioid overdoses. Time is running out to avert climate catastrophe. Millions of people lost healthcare coverage since he's occupied the office.
