BREAKING: Flynn Won’t Testify Before Senate Intelligence Committee, Will Invoke The Fifth Amendment

AP said its source was a person with direct knowledge of the matter who wished to remain anonymous.

Flynn is consulting with attorneys likely because he doesn’t want to get caught in a trap; his refusal to testify is not necessarily an admission of guilt.
