WASHINGTON — Michael T. Flynn told President Trump’s transition team weeks before the inauguration that he was under federal investigation for secretly working as a paid lobbyist for Turkey during the campaign, according to two people familiar with the case.


Despite this warning, which came about a month after the Justice Department notified Mr. Flynn of the inquiry, Mr. Trump made Mr. Flynn his national security adviser. The job gave Mr. Flynn access to the president and nearly every secret held by American intelligence agencies.
Trump Team Knew Flynn Was Under Investigation Before He Came to White House


If that doesn't illustrate the imbecile in the WH is a threat to National Security!

Ignorance of what the consequences could mean for his Presidency. AND that is the problem with Trump.

He made a big mistake in judgement hiring Flynn -- HUGE......and that speaks to his leadership style, (instincts hiring good, qualified people) and his total disregard for facts.

Well, Pence, who was heading up the transition said he didn't know about Flynn.

Did the WH lawyer keep the info to himself? Are they all lying?

Acting Ag Sally Yates (later fired by Trump) went to the WH Counsel Donald McGahn on January 26 to warn them of Flynn's actions. He however already knew of the Flynn problems.

Furthermore, the new information claims Flynn made the transition team aware of his investigation before Trump took office. Mike Pence was the head of the transition team. How is it that he didn't know?

Anyone willing to be in the low-life lying scumbag Trump's inner circle has to be of the same absence of morals/character to even stomach him! Even his gold digging wife prefers to stay away from him! Poor Barron looks like he wants to crawl into a hole whenever Trump is near,and at home he has his own floor in Trump Towers!


Analysis | Vice President Pence has a growing credibility problem

hillary clinton was under investigation and still was retained as a prez candidate by the dems


sen menendez from nj is under investigation and still holds office.


Being under investigation does not constitute guilt.


So why question trump when he hired a guy with a sterling reputation who was under investigation?????


More media slight of hand and character assassination.

Sterling reputation, my butt! Obama warned Trump, and Flynn told the Trump team himself that he was a foreign Agent and under investigation! So your asinine deflection attempt goes nowhere!
