After reviewing classified documents today. After reviewing those documents they have seen no proof showing flynn received permission from the pentagon or state department for the Foreign Government payments he received from both russia and turkey and they say he didnt fully disclose the more than half a Million Dollars his firm was given for lobbying activities on behalf of turkey when he applied to reinstate his security clearance before he became the National Security adviser.

During his interview on nbc news, President Trump saides he was planning on firing james comey all along.
