Former U.S. national security adviser Michael Flynn detailed attempts to obstruct Russia probe: court filing by NathanPLayne

- Former U.S. national security adviser Michael Flynn gave Special Counsel Robert Mueller information about attempts by people tied to the Trump administration and Congress to obstruct the Russia investigation, court documents released on Thursday showed.

The documents revealed for the first time sections that had originally been blacked out before last month’s release of Mueller’s report on his probe into Russia’s meddling in the 2016 election. The new disclosures were made at prosecutors’ request. “The defendant even provided a voicemail recording of one such communication. In some instances, the SCO was unaware of the outreach until being alerted to it by the defendant,” he wrote, using the acronym for the Special Counsel’s Office.

Flynn pleaded guilty to lying to FBI agents about his December 2016 conversations with Sergei Kislyak, then Russia’s ambassador in Washington, about U.S. sanctions imposed on Moscow by the administration of Trump’s Democratic predecessor Barack Obama. The conversations took place between Trump’s November election victory and his inauguration in January 2017.

New details emerge in Michael Flynn's cooperation with Mueller probeFederal prosecutors have unsealed court documents related to special counsel Robert Mueller’s case against Michael Flynn showing in greater detail the breadth of the former national security advisor’s assistance to prosecutors. McGahn was the W.H. lawyer not Trump’s so it might not be him. But why did Mueller withhold this critical information from the judge, even after the judge was openly calling Flynn a traitor at his first sentencing hearing? Why release it now? Lots of strange things happening.
