THE QUICK FACTS
- On Tuesday, President Trump asked a federal judge to stop the release of former national security advisor John Bolton's book on his tenure at the White House.
- The lawsuit alleges that the book is "rife with classified information," but Bolton claims to have followed the proper protocol and review process.
- Trump said that Bolton "will have criminal problems" if the book contains any personal conversations with the President.
