U.S. prosecutors agreed on June 16 to drop a civil lawsuit against John Bolton, who worked in the Trump administration, over the publication of his 2020 memoir “The Room Where It Happened.”

A court filing in USA v. Bolton said that prosecutors agreed to the dismissal, as did lawyers for Bolton, former President Donald Trump’s onetime national security adviser.
