Michael Flynn 'promoted US-Russian nuclear project from White House'

Source: The Guardian

US congressional investigators are examining whether Michael Flynn, Donald Trump’s former national security adviser, secretly promoted a plan by private business interests to build US-Russian nuclear power plants in the Middle East while he was serving in the White House.

The retired three-star general, who once led a chant of “lock her up” against Hillary Clinton at the Republican national convention, has emerged as a central figure in multiple investigations into possible collusion between the Kremlin and the Trump campaign.

Among startling new details unearthed by investigators working for a congressional committee is that the nuclear power plan Flynn was allegedly secretly promoting, during the campaign and once he joined the White House, involved a Russian state-owned company currently under US sanctions.

They are also examining whether the proposal is still being promoted by the Trump administration, months after Flynn was forced out of his role.

And this assholes (Flynn and associates) crime wave just keeps popping up

Bring him into a public hearing so that everyone can see him plead the fifth after the evidence is brought forward and then lets here the chant , LOCK HIM UP, LOCK HIM UP

I hate Traitors especially those that served in the armed forces, collecting a retirement and other benefits subsidized by "We the taxpayers"

That is just BS
