NBC: Michael Flynn pleads guilty to lying to FBI in Mueller probe
Former U.S. National Security Adviser Michael Flynn pleaded guilty on Friday in federal court to a charge of making false statements to the FBI about his communications with Russia.
A two-page information filed Thursday in federal court lists a number of false statements that Flynn is accused of making about his interactions with Russian ambassador Sergey Kislyak in late December 2016.
It says that Flynn falsely claimed that he had not asked Kislyak on Dec. 29 "to refrain from escalating the situation in response to sanctions that the U.S. had imposed against Russia," and that he didn't recall Kislyak telling him Russia had decided to moderate its response as a result of his request.

WNU Editor: This is it?!?!?!

Far more. With this conviction the next question is .... will he go to jail (which I doubt), and will President Trump pardon him?
