CNN: The 1 Sentence in Michael Flynn's Sentencing Document that Should Really Scare Donald Trump
The biggest story of the sentencing document filed by special counsel Robert Mueller's office on Michael Flynn is what's not in it.
As CNN reports, there are large swaths of redactions, making it hard to see exactly what Mueller is doing - and what specific role the Trump administration's former national security adviser is playing in it all.
But there's a single sentence in the 13-page document that should send shivers down the spine of President Donald Trump and everyone in his inner circle. It's this: "The defendant deserves credit for accepting responsibility in a timely fashion and substantially assisting the government."
Flynn is the only one of the seven Trump associates who have pleaded guilty and are cooperating with the Mueller probe who bridges the divide between Trump's campaign, the transition and the presidency.
Flynn pleaded guilty on December 1, 2017. It is known from the sentencing documents that Flynn has met with the special counsel's team 19 times during that period. We also know Mueller has delayed Flynn's sentencing four times over the last year.
