Washington Stunned As Trump's Former National Security Adviser Admits To Lying To FBI

IT APPEARS TO ONLY BE A MATTER
OF TIME
WE WILL SEE WHAT HAPPENS.
THANK YOU SO MUCH.
TONIGHT THE WHITE HOUSE IS
TRYING TO CONTAIN THE FALLOUT
AFTER TRUMP'S NATIONAL SECURITY
ADVISOR PLED GUILTY TO LYING TO
THE FBI.
TOM WAIT IS LIVE IN THE NEWSROOM
WITH THE FAST-MOVING DEVELOPMENT
STILL HAVING TONIGHT.
YOU MIGHT REMEMBER GENERAL
FLYNN, HE IS THE MAN WHO LED
CHANCE OF LOCK HER UP AT THE
CONVENTION, REFERRING TO
CANDIDATE HILLARY CLINTON.
NOW HE IS FACING A LOT OF
TROUBLE OF HIS OWN.
MICHAEL FLYNN ENTERED COURT
FRIDAY AND PLED GUILTY TO LYING
TO THE FBI ABOUT CONVERSATIONS
HE HAD WITH RUSSIAN INVESTOR TO
THE U.S., SURROGATE DURING THE
TRANSITION.
CBS NEWS HAS ONCE HE WAS
DIRECTED TO REACH OUT TO
PRESIDENT TRUMP'S SON-IN-LAW,
DESCRIBED IN COURT PAPERS AS A
VERY SENIOR MEMBER OF THE
TRANSITION TEAM.
ON DECEMBER 22, 2016, FLYNN
CALLED HIM TO URGE RUSSIA TO
DELAY OR DEFEAT THE UNITED
NATIONS RESOLUTION CONCERNING
ISRAEL HE FILAMENTS.
A WEEK LATER HE SPOKE TO HIM
AGAIN, THIS TIME ABOUT NEW
SANCTIONS IMPOSED ON RUSSIA.
HE MADE THAT CALL AFTER
CONSULTING WITH SOMEONE COURT
PAPERS IDENTIFY AS A SENIOR
TRANSITION OFFICIAL.
CBS NEWS HAS LEARNED THAT WAS
FLYNN'S DEPUTY KATIE MCFARLANE.
AFTER THE SECOND CALL, RUSSIAN
PRESIDENT ANNOUNCED HE WOULD NOT
RETALIATE FOR THE U.S. SANCTIONS
AND PRESIDENT-ELECT TRUMP
TWEETED THAT HE WAS VERY SMART.
SENATOR MARK WARNER IS THE
RANKING DEMOCRAT ON THE
INTELLIGENCE COMMITTEE.
HE IS ONE MORE EXAMPLE OF THE
EXTENSIVE TIES BETWEEN SENIOR
OFFICIALS INVOLVED IN THE TRUMP
EFFORTS.
PRESIDENT TRUMP HAS NOT
MENTIONED BEING AWARE OF HIS
PHONE CALLS.
TOP REPUBLICAN STOP SHORT OF
COMING DOWN HARD ON THE
PRESIDENT.
SO FAR, ALL OF THESE CHARGES
AND GUILTY PLEAS HAVEN'T BEEN
ABOUT COLLUDING WITH THE
RUSSIANS.
HE RELEASED A STATEMENT
SAYING HIS ACTIONS WERE WRONG
AND HIS GUILTY PLEA IS IN THE
BEST INTEREST OF HIS FAMILY AND
THE COUNTRY.
HILLARY CLINTON WAS IN TOWN FOR
THE BOOK SIGNING.
SHE WOULD ONLY SAY THIS ABOUT
THE GUILTY PLEA.
I SAY A LOT ABOUT RUSSIA IN
THIS BOOK.
REPORTER: THE GUILTY PLEA COULD
HAVE MAJOR CONSEQUENCES FOR THE
WHITE HOUSE.
JUSTIN LEVITT WAS A DEPUTY
ASSISTANT ATTORNEY GENERAL IN
THE CIVIL RIGHTS DIVISION AT THE
DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE.
THIS IS REALLY A CENTIPEDE.
WE'VE SEEN THE FIRST SHOES FALL,
BUT THERE IS AN AWFUL LOT MORE
PEOPLE WITH A LOT MORE SHOES
READY TO HIT THE FLOOR.
THE PRESIDENT FIRED FLYNN
AFTER JUST 24 DAYS FOR LYING TO
THE VICE PRESIDENT ABOUT HIS
MEDICATIONS.
HE WAS RELEASED WITHOUT BAIL.
