Erin Burnett has left a new comment on your post "Democrats and Republicans react to John Bolton's b...":
Singling out episodes of "obstruction of justice as a way of life."
The other episodes that Mr. Bolton says the House should have investigated include Mr. Trump's willingness to intervene in Justice Department investigations against foreign companies to "give personal favors to dictators he liked." Mr. Bolton said it appeared to be "obstruction of justice as a way of life."
He singles out Halkbank of Turkey, a state-owned financial institution investigated for a multibillion-dollar scheme to evade American sanctions on Iran. At a side encounter during a Buenos Aires summit meeting in late 2018, President Recep Tayyip Erdogan of Turkey handed Mr. Trump a memo by the law firm representing Halkbank, "which Trump did nothing more than flip through before declaring he believed Halkbank was totally innocent." He then told Mr. Erdogan "he would take care of things."
Attorney General William P. Barr later spent months trying to negotiate a settlement with the bank, but that came to an end in October, after Mr. Bolton left office, when the Justice Department charged Halkbank in a six-count indictment.
