The moment that many fans of President Donald Trump and Gen. Michael Flynn have been waiting for has finally arrived.

The president is set to give a full pardon to the general, Axios reported.

In February 2017, Gen. Flynn pleaded guilty to lying to the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) but attempted to withdraw his plea in January 2020 alleging prosecutorial misconduct.

According to Axios, “President Trump has told confidants he plans to pardon his former national security adviser Michael Flynn, who pleaded guilty in December 2017 to lying to the FBI about his Russian contacts.” The media outlet cited two sources with direct knowledge of the discussions.

“Flynn’s pardon would be the culmination of a four-year political and legal saga that began with the FBI’s investigation into possible coordination between the Trump campaign and the Russian government in the 2016 election,” it said.

Many people in the conservative community believe that the general was railroaded and pressured into pleading guilty to lying to the FBI because the bureau threatened to go after his son. Something Flynn’s attorneys have also said happened.
