Flynn guilty plea raises questions for Trump and Kushner


Washington (CNN) The court filings from former Trump national security adviser Michael Flynn's plea hearing Friday show special counsel Robert Mueller's investigators are focused on the actions of President Donald Trump and his senior team. They also provide the clearest picture yet of coordination between Flynn and other Trump advisers in contacting Russian officials to influence international policy. The court filings on Friday also show that Flynn was working with other members of the Trump transition team when he spoke to Kislyak about US sanctions against Russia. After his call with Kislyak, Flynn briefed the transition team members about his conversations with the ambassador and Russia's decision not to escalate the situation. Flynn lied to investigators about these calls with the ambassador, according to his guilty plea and the criminal statement of offense.
