Carl Bernstein says Mike Flynn is central to White House cover-up of Russia scandal.
Legendary Watergate journalist Carl Bernstein said on CNN Wednesday that former national security adviser Michael Flynn’s is key to helping the FBI unravel a vast “cover-up” of the Trump campaign’s ties to Russia.
“I think it’s obvious that Gen. Flynn is in up to his neck in terms, not just of possible crimes involving his speeches and whether or not he registered as a foreign agent, which he should have and didn’t,” Bernstein said on CNN’s “New Day.”
During a press conference on Tuesday, the top two lawmakers on the House Oversight Committee said that Michael Flynn had likely broken the law by accepting payments from Russia and Turkey and not disclosing the payments.
“There, he is central to what the FBI believes is a cover-up going on among people close to the president of the United States about what happened with the Trump campaign and Russia,” Bernstein said.
