	Description:		New details have emerged regarding former Trump national security adviser Michael Flynn's cooperation with special counsel Robert Mueller, and what that may mean for his sentencing. According to the heavily-redacted memo released to the public, the Mueller team reported that Flynn met with them 19 times, and provided "substantial assistance" with "several ongoing investigations." The Mueller team also suggested Flynn be sentenced to little or no prison time. Meanwhile, after a closed-door meeting yesterday with CIA director Gina Haspel, many Senate Republicans are criticizing information provided to them by Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and Defense Secretary Jim Mattis on the murder of Jamal Khashoggi. While Mattis and Pompeo both reported that there was no "smoking gun" that proved Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salman ordered the killing, Haspel's briefing proved, according to Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC), "that this was orchestrated and organized by people under the command of MBS and that he was intricately involved in the demise of Mr. Khashoggi." It's Wednesday, December 5th, 2018. Welcome to Morning Joe.
