Top Republican predicts Flynn guilty plea will be thrown out, citing FBI 'misconduct'


The court documents also showed that the FBI's interview report -- known as an "FD-302" -- documenting Flynn's statements, was dated several months after the actual Flynn interview took place in the White House. Addititonally, Peter Strzok, the agent who led the Flynn interview and said he did not feel Flynn was lying at the time, was fired from the Russia probe in late July 2017 for his apparent anti-Trump bias. One FBI document said then-Acting Attorney General Sally Yates “was not happy” when Comey informed her that the FBI planned to talk to Flynn. The report also said several unnamed people back at FBI headquarters “later argued about the FBI’s decision to interview Flynn.” On Jan. 23, 2017 -- just one day before the Flynn interview -- The Washington Post, citing FBI sources, reported that the FBI had wiretapped Flynn's conversations with Russian officials and cleared him of any wrongdoing. Asked when Steele was “terminated” as an FBI source, Comey said he didn’t know.
