The Michael Flynn Memo is out. It's redacted af.
According to the sentencing memorandum filed by the Special Counsel tonight, Donald Trump's former national security adviser sat for 19 interviews with the Special Counsel's office and other attorneys at the Justice Department.
Robert Mueller is recommending no prison time for Flynn, given his cooperation in the ongoing investigation into Trump's possible crimes with Russia.
The memo was released at 8:36 PM, on December 4, 2018.

Michael Flynn has sat for 19 interviews with Special Counsel and DOJ. The memo appears to list at least 3 ongoing investigations being pursued.
One “criminal investigation” is completely redacted in the document, another is also completely redacted.
