Former national security adviser Michael Flynn lied to FBI agents in an interview last month about the nature of his discussions with Russia’s ambassador to the U.S., current and former officials told the Washington Post.
Intelligence agencies intercepted communications that showed Flynn discussed sections against Russia, which he denied to in a Jan. 24 interview with the FBI.
Flynn’s denial may place him in legal jeopardy because it’s a felony offense to lie to the FBI.
Whether Flynn is actually charged is another question. That decision falls to President Trump’s Justice Department.
