So it appears that Trump's former national security adviser has flipped and is now working with the Mueller investigation. And here we go.

Sorry, it's you or me buddy.

Courtesy of the New York Times:

Lawyers for Michael T. Flynn, President Trump�s former national security adviser, notified the president�s legal team in recent days that they could no longer discuss the special counsel�s investigation, according to four people involved in the case � an indication that Mr. Flynn is cooperating with prosecutors or negotiating a deal. 

Mr. Flynn�s lawyers had been sharing information with Mr. Trump�s lawyers about the investigation by the special counsel, Robert S. Mueller III, who is examining whether anyone around Mr. Trump was involved in Russian efforts to undermine Hillary Clinton�s presidential campaign. 

That agreement has been terminated, the four people said. Defense lawyers frequently share information during investigations, but they must stop when doing so would pose a conflict of interest. It is unethical for lawyers to work together when one client is cooperating with prosecutors and another is still under investigation. 

The notification alone does not prove that Mr. Flynn is cooperating with Mr. Mueller. Some lawyers withdraw from information-sharing arrangements as soon as they begin negotiating with prosecutors. And such negotiations sometimes fall apart.

The Times article goes on to hedge its bets by suggesting that this is not absolute proof that Flynn is cooperating with Mueller, but of course it is.

We have been reading for months how the Mueller team has been working to turn Flynn, and get him to start cooperating, and it appears they have now done exactly that.

Not only that but Trump is clearly worried about it.

Will be speaking to President Recep Tayyip Erdogan of Turkey this morning about bringing peace to the mess that I inherited in the Middle East. I will get it all done, but what a mistake, in lives and dollars (6 trillion), to be there in the first place!

Interesting timing, because we heard yesterday that a Turkish agent (Michael Flynn) appears to be cooperating with Mueller. https://t.co/pzhvlumsiu

I wonder if Mueller can subpoena transcripts of phone calls like this?

I have a feeling that things are really starting to heat up, and that our Christmas Day conversations with those conservative relatives are going to be quite lively indeed.

Especially if Obama's former ethics czar is right about this part.

BAD NEWS FOR TRUMP. Flynn may or may not have dirt on the Prez, but he surely will roll over on Kush, who will flip like a pancake on daddy-in-law's obstrution. They are gonna have to start frisking Jared for a wire in the Oval. Today is Cursegiving not Thanksgiving for POTUS https://t.co/u8F9eMoU4b

Love to be a fly on the wall at whatever golf club Trump is wasting taxpayer money at right now.
