WASHINGTON – President Donald Trump confirmed Sunday he is considering a “Full Pardon” for former national security adviser Michael Flynn, who pleaded guilty to charges of lying to the FBI about contacts with a Russia diplomat.
Claiming the FBI and Justice Department “lost” some of Flynn’s records after “destroying his life & the life of his wonderful family,” Trump tweeted: “How convenient. I am strongly considering a Full Pardon!”
Flynn has still not been sentenced for lying to the FBI about his communication with Sergey Kislyak.
So now it is reported that, after destroying his life & the life of his wonderful family (and many others also), the FBI, working in conjunction with the Justice Department, has “lost” the records of General Michael Flynn. How convenient. I am strongly considering a Full Pardon!
