Michael Flynn, former national security advisor to President Trump, has been charged with lying to the FBI about his conversations with a Russian ambassador after the election and is expected to plead guilty in a plea hearing on Friday.
The news comes after reports last week that Flynn’s attorneys had cut off communication with Trump’s legal team, a move that signaled that Flynn was likely in negotiations with Special Counsel Robert Mueller for some type of plea deal. On Friday, Mueller’s office announced that a plea hearing for Flynn has been scheduled for 10:30 a.m. in a federal court.
