U.S. President Donald Trump pardoned his former national security adviser Michael Flynn Wednesday, ending a years-long prosecution in the Russia investigation that saw Flynn twice plead guilty to lying to the FBI.
It is my Great Honor to announce that General Michael T. Flynn has been granted a Full Pardon. Congratulations to @GenFlynn and his wonderful family, I know you will now have a truly fantastic Thanksgiving!
