Now to the new reporting radding washington this morning. The New York Times saying former National Security adviser Michael Flynn fired after 24 days on the job revealed to the trump team he was under federal investigation for lobbying work on behalf of a foreign country weeks before trumps inauguration. According to the times the warning from flynn came about a month after the Justice Department notified flynn of an inquiry. It comes as new reporting questions whether flynn was even vetted prior to his taking on his job as National Security adviser. A source tells Peter Alexander flynn himself made it clear to Trump Associates two days after the election that he wanted the nsa post. Jared kushner and ivanka trump made it clear the president would reward flynn for loyalty after Deputy Attorney general Ron Rosenstein made a surprise announcement appointing a special counsel in the 2016 election. Former fbi director Robert Mueller was named to lead the investigation after allegations trump urged then fbi director james comey to shut down an investigation in to flynn. Muellers appointment is an aboutface from the administration that rallied against the need for an investigation. Nbcs Pete Williams brings us more. Reporter after serving for three weeks Rod Rosenstein took himself out of overseeing the russia investigation turning that over to Robert Mueller. Saying the 3406 is in the public interest. Mueller is the former fbi director who served 12 years in the job. Next to j. Edgar hoover hes the longest serving. I asked him in 2013 about stepping down. You going to miss all this . Yes. No. Great people. Great challenge. Its been great opportunity. Reporter mueller will have the full authority to investigate the russian matter that any u. S. Attorney would including the power to file criminal charges. Democrats have been pushing for the appointment of a special counsel since rosenstein was confirmed and since attorney general Jeff Sessions took himself out of making decisions about the investigation. Mueller now 72 took over as fbi director just a week before 9 11, more recently the nfl chose him to review handling of the ray rice Domestic Violence case. He is in private law practice but says he will resign from that firm to avoid potential conflicts. That was nbcs Pete Williams. The president reacted saying quote a thorough investigation will confirm what we already know, there was no collusion between my campaign and any foreign entity. I look forward to this matter concluding quickly. Lawmakers reacted positively to the mueller appointment. I think its a very positive step that a special counsel has been appointed and a special counsel of the caliber of bob mueller. He is as good as it gets. His credentials are impeccable. He served in the bush administration, the obama administration. He is unassailable in terms of credentials, his background. Lengths turn to nbcs Edward Lawrence live in washington. Highly respected as we just heard there. Certainly a gamechanger somewhat when it comes to this appointment. Reporter exactly, frances. This was a surprise on capitol hill. Lawmakers did not know this was coming. The Deputy Attorney general Rod Rosenstein appointed after three weeks of being in charge of the investigation. This gives Robert Mueller the ability to subpoena. He can also file charges. In addition to that, he can prosecute folks for criminal charges. Mueller is no stranger to the fbi. Hes likely to reach out to his colleagues there and get an update on exactly how the Russian Investigation is going up to this point. Now, if there is nothing to find, then both House Republicans and democrats will accept the answer from Robert Mueller because of his reputation. If there is something to find, his reputation is such that he would find it. Frances . Big news in itself. You have on the side the 2016 allegation from a high ranking republican basically saying Vladimir Putin was paying donald trump. Reporter thats interesting.
