"If Johnny testifies, I'll end up in the slammer for sure. We gotta find a way to gag him. Wait, I know just the thing! Get a restraining order!" There are so many crooks out there who would love to be able to do that if it were a thing.

It's not a thing.

8. What court? The Chief Justice is overseeing the impeachment.

I might be wrong, but it seems the courts can't even get involved in impeachments. The court is the Senate.

and go on Rachel's show and spill the beans. That is his only real protection now.

For Heaven's sakes, John, just do it! I'll buy a copy of your stupid book, if that's what it takes to get you to testify.

But I imagine Rachel is indeed pursuing this and has been in contact. She would love the scoop. And Bolton is no dummy. He saw what Parnas did and can guess why he did it just as we have.

If he’d spill the beans about tRump (and anyone else he can) he’d personally give him a hug and kiss on the lips.

I want to see the antics the WH pulls to try to stifle Bolton. This ought to be good.

We want pictures!

I said a long time ago that if Bolton would testify, I'd buy his damned book.

But a hug and a kiss?

I'll leave that to your brave hubby.
