Bolton - more to come

I saw Senator Barbara Boxer on C-SPAN last night. Among other things, she said that there is another person lined up to testify against John Bolton's nomination to the UN ambassadorship. This woman was an attorney whom Bolton demoted to a basement office without a phone when she refused to do some dirty work for him. Remember the Nestle infant formula scandal regarding marketing and sales in third world countries where it was being mixed with contaminated water? This woman will testify that Bolton told her to get on the horn to those countries' governments who were objecting and tell them to back off so that Nestle could continue its sales. She refused. He tried to fire her. He couldn't, so he moved her office to the basement and took away her phone.
