Hes made things up before: Fox panel prepares its viewers to turn on Flynn if he rats out TrumpBrad Reed 24 NOV 2017 AT 13:06 ET
A Fox News panel on Friday reacted to the news that former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn might be cooperating with special counsel Robert Muellers Russia probe by fretting that Flynn would lie about President Donald Trump if it meant keeping his son out of jail.
Panelist David Avella started off by slamming new leaks about Muellers investigation, which he said was a carefully constructed PR stunt intended to convince Americans that Trump had colluded with Russian government agents during the 2016 presidential election. Avella also said that it was ridiculous to focus on the 18 trips to Russia that were made by former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort, since Hillary Clinton had also traveled to Russia during her time as secretary of state.
Host Dagen McDowell interjected and pointed out that Muellers probe was much more serious than a PR stunt. However, she worried that Mueller would use his leverage over Flynn to force him to lie about Trump as a way to keep his son, Michael Flynn Jr., from serving a prison sentence.

Faux's connections to Russia via Flynn and Manafort may be under Mueller's microscope.
