FBI Investigated Michael Flynn Over Russia Ties Earlier Than Previously Known

Special counsel Robert Mueller's report revealed new details about the investigation of former national security adviser Michael Flynn.

The FBI investigated Flynn's possible ties to Russia earlier than previously known, according to the report.

The FBI was investigating Michael Flynn's possible relationship with the Russian government much earlier than previously known, the special counsel's report revealed.

Special counsel Robert Mueller's report reveals for the first time that Flynn was a target of the FBI's Russia probe before the Kislyak calls.

"Previously, the FBI had opened an investigation of Flynn based on his relationship with the Russian government," reads the report, which cited FBI interviews given by former Justice Department official Mary McCord and former FBI Director James Comey.

In addition to his calls with Kislyak and his false statements to the FBI, it was already known that Flynn was investigated as a possible unregistered foreign agent of the Turkish government.

Flynn's company, Flynn Intel Group, entered a $600,000 contract in August 2016 with a Turkish businessman with close ties to the Turkish government.
