BREAKING: Trump transition was told Flynn likely needed to register as foreign agent before taking top national security role.
Donald Trump's team was told Michael Flynn should register as foreign agent due to his lobbying work
......
Vice President Mike Pence said on Thursday said the news was "an affirmation of the president’s decision to ask General Flynn to resign".
He told Fox News he did not know about Mr Flynn’s failure to file with the Justice Department. Mr Pence was also reportedly misled by Mr Flynn about the calls to Russia. Mr Trump knew about the calls for three weeks and Mr Pence 11 days before reporters exposed the phone calls to the public and Mr Flynn resigned.

Who on the transition team was told? Not Pence obviously. Bannon? Jared/Ivanka? Robert Mercer's daughter?
BTW the correct time to file as a registered lobbyist was when was retained as an agent. |
