It is it obvious that since 2012 when he was appointed by the coalition government. And it is notjust in resigning. It is three other commissioners as well.

In a tweet, the us president said general flynn had acted lawfully, but had to be sacked for dishonesty a charge mr flynn admitted on friday. The controversy comes after mr trump secured whats being seen as the first big legislative achievement of his presidency a wide ranging tax reform bill. Our washington correspondent, laura bicker reports. Donald trumps started the day on a bullish note. He is on course for a much needed win on tax reform, he brushed aside questions about his former National Security adviser lying to the fbi over his meetings with russians.

On this vote, the yays are 51, and the nays are 49. It should have been a momentous day for donald trump, republicans had finally united behind tax bill, a welcome distraction and at last a legislative victory. But no
