Priebus: ‘No Controversy’ in Michael Flynn Talking to the Russian Amb.

RUSH EXCERPT:

PRIEBUS: "The tick-tock on this is that at Christmas the two of them texted each other merry Christmas. A couple of days later this ambassador texted general Flynn that he wanted to talk and then the next day they had a conversation which did happen to be that same day, but I have talked to general Flynn. None of that came up and the subject matter of sanctions or the actions taken by the Obama Administration did not come up in the information. In fact, it was the sports team that was in an unfortunate plane accident. They talked about setting up a phone call after inauguration, and they also talked about a conference in Syria, and that conference in regard to ISIS in Syria. Those were the only subjects that came up, but there was no controversy in general Flynn talking about their counterparts in the world."
