White House refuses to take back claim that Flynn was ambushed

Trump's top spokesperson on Tuesday offered well wishes for former national security adviser Michael Flynn and said she had no reason to take back her claim he was "ambushed" by the FBI.

"The delay is something between Gen. Flynn and the courts," White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said after a federal judge delayed his sentencing. "In the meantime, we wish Gen. Flynn well."

Flynn has pleaded guilty to lying to the FBI about his contacts with Russians during and after the 2016 campaign, but Sanders said earlier Tuesday the FBI acted inappropriately in questioning him early last year.

“No. We still firmly believe” that he was ambushed, Sanders said when asked about her previous comments.
