Book deals are a form of money laundering. 

It's used to pension off people who have served their purpose and are now redundant. 

Bolton got a book deal.
Bill Barr got a book deal.
Trump Jr. got a book deal.
Emily Murphy was awarded tenure.
John Yoo was awarded tenure.
Ben Sasse was awarded tenure.

Paul Ryan got a job at Fox.
Kailey McNinny got a job at Fox.
Trey Gowdy got a job at Fox.

Seeing a pattern here?
