Rep. Devin Nunes predicted that the world will soon learn retired Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn was framed by members of the U.S. government.
Rumors have circulated recently among legal analysts who believe Flynn, 61, could be exonerated in the near future. The president's former national security adviser pleaded guilty in December 2017 for lying to investigators about his conversations with Russian diplomat Sergey Kislyak regarding sanctions against Russia and a United Nations resolution on Israel. However, he has since filed to withdraw his plea and claimed to be innocent.
Last week, Flynn's legal team, led by Sidney Powell, asserted that new evidence submitted in his case, which is under seal, proves he was “set up†by the FBI. Powell is pressing for the dismissal of his client's case, arguing the FBI treated Flynn unfairly.
Nunes, during an appearance on Fox News's Sunday Morning Futures with Maria Bartiromo, discussed the allegations that the FBI’s top leadership concealed "exculpatory evidence" from Flynn’s defense team, which the bureau has denied.
