Bolton Knows About ‘Many Relevant Meetings’ on Ukraine, Lawyer Says

The former national security adviser would be an important witness in the impeachment inquiry, but his lawyer wants a court to rule on whether he should testify.

The House chairmen have withdrawn a subpoena for Mr. Kupperman and indicated they would not seek one for Mr. Bolton because they said they did not want to get dragged into lengthy court proceedings. Instead, Democrats have suggested that they may cite the refusal to testify by Mr. Bolton and Mr. Kupperman as evidence of obstruction of Congress by the president, which could form its own article of impeachment.

Bolton's lawyer is doing a game of cat and mouse with the teasing. But he may lose in the end. Democrats know Bolton is pissed and Bolton wants to have his GOP street cred and eat the revenge cake too, but will have to do it on Democrats' terms.
