Washington New developments in the Michael Flynn case have breathed new life into old controversies about Russian interference in the 2016 election, and the never-ending fallout.

Flynn, who was President Donald Trump's first national security adviser before resigning and pleading guilty to lying to the FBI, is in a state of legal limbo. The Justice Department reversed course this month and asked to drop the case against him, and a federal judge is reviewing the request.

Sigh, I read this article looking for one word of honesty & this is as close as it came: 'This outside team provided Flynn's lawyers with some documents last month...' That's the entirety of CNN's reporting on the hit job on Flynn & the conspiracy behind the phoney Russia probe.

We already know! We read the papers and have seen how what they said to CNN and what they testified to were completely opposite.

Note- only one quick sentence about leaking to the press is mentioned! Also, the was nothing illegal about Flynn talking to Russia, and nothing illegal about the content of his conversation with russia!

Outright lies... Let me make this very clear realDonaldTrump WILL PARDON GENERAL FLYNN. HUSSEIN, BIDEN, CLAPPER, YATES, COMEY PLUS WILL BE INDICTED. THIS ENDS FANTASTIC FOR FLYNN AND HORRIBLY FOR HUSSEIN AND COMPANY.

Walks like a traitor and talks like a traitor must be a !!!

The unmaskers that are trying to unmask the unmaskers will also be unmasked. There are no “unmaskers” so the whole premise of this story is not true ALT_MyName Our National Security people should be commended as heroes for following the breadcrumbs to Flynn, who was connecting with Russia on backchannels to undo Pres. Obama's sanctions. I cannot be the only person who is uneasy about the relationship Trump has with Russia, our enemy.
