National Security Council leakers worried Trump might arrest them

National security adviser Michael Flynn personally apologized to Vice President Mike Pence amid reports he discussed us sanctions on Russia with Russian ambassador Sergey Kislyak before President Donald Trump’s inauguration, USA Today reports.

He said that Mr Flynn admission to having spoken to the Russian ambassador to Washington about sanctions before Mr Trump took office, was especially damaging because other senior members of the government – including Mike Pence – had backed him.

US National Security Adviser Michael Flynn reportedly had secret discussions with Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak about sanctions the outgoing administration of President Barack Obama imposed on Moscow late previous year.

Trump senior policy adviser Stephen Miller was asked on NBC’s Meet The Press on Sunday whether Mr Trump had confidence in Mr Flynn.

Miller declared that saying the White House is “in control would be a substantial understatement” and “on issue after issue we’re taking forceful action to deliver on the president’s campaign promises on a breathtaking scale”.

That could be hard in light of recent reports about Flynn’s calls with Russian Federation.

The president said in Twitter comments over the weekend that since the initial court ruling against him February 3,72 percent of the refugees admitted into USA are from the seven countries where he imposed the travel ban, Syria, Iraq, Somalia, Iran, Sudan, Libya and Yemen.

President Donald Trump has so far been uncharacteristically silent on Flynn’s fate, fueling speculation about whether his national security advisor can survive the latest controversy.

A top White House adviser has attacked the U.S. federal appeals court for upholding a ruling suspending Mr Trump’s travel ban order.

A White House official has attacked the federal appeals court over its block of Mr Trump’s executive order, calling it a “judicial usurpation of power”. “Yes, General Flynn does enjoy the full confidence of the president”, she claimed in defiance of the “personnel crisis” being reported in the media.

Private citizens with no diplomatic brief – which Flynn was at the time – are forbidden from establishing their own ties with foreign nations.

“Gen. Flynn has said up to this point that he had not said anything like that to the Russian ambassador”.

Flynn had already said he’s not going anywhere.

But sources say Priebus wants to be at the President’s side so much for an important reason: President Trump is firmly in charge of his White House from the big picture to in-the-weeds decisions.

“Stephen, the three judges say you’re flat wrong”, “Fox News Sunday” host Chris Wallace told Miller.

Conway said Flynn has been an integral part of the series of Trump’s meetings with foreign leaders last week and this week, including the prime ministers of Japan and Canada and plans for an upcoming meeting with the prime minister of Israel.

“We simply took that intelligence assessment and we took firm action to restrict entry”, Miller said.
