National Security Advisor Mike Flynn discussed hacking-related
sanctions with the Russian ambassador before the Trump administration
took office, contrary to the public assertions of Vice President Mike

The official said he was told there was no quid

Flynn did anything illegal.

that he discussed the sanctions on Russia with the ambassador. His
spokesman later said he didn't recall whether he did, according to the
Post.
