June 16 (UPI) — The Justice Department on Wednesday dropped a lawsuit and criminal investigation involving former national security adviser John Bolton’s book about his time in the Trump administration.

A criminal investigation into whether the book disclosed classified information was also dropped by the department, Politico reported.
