Two senior lawmakers on the House Oversight Committee—Utah Republican Congressmember Jason Chaffetz and Maryland Democratic Congressman Elijah Cummings—say former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn may have broken U.S. laws by receiving payments from the Russian and Turkish governments and then failing to disclose these payments when seeking security clearance. Flynn received tens of thousands of dollars from the Russian government for a 2015 speaking event. He was also working as a foreign agent for the Turkish government last fall as he served as a top adviser to Donald Trump’s campaign. This is Congressmember Jason Chaffetz.

Rep. Jason Chaffetz: “As a former military officer, you simply cannot take money from Russia, Turkey or anybody else. And it appears as if he did take that money. It was inappropriate. And there are repercussions for the violation of law.”
