The Justice Department on Thursday said it is dropping the criminal case against President Donald Trump's first national-security adviser, Michael Flynn, the Associated Press reported. Flynn's prosecution became a rallying cry for Trump and his supporters in attacking the FBI's Russia investigation, as the AP writes. The Justice Department said it is dropping the case "after a considered review of all the facts and circumstances of this case, including newly discovered and disclosed information," reports the AP.
