The FBI said Flynn lied. Flynn, in his guilty plea, also admitted he lied. But this Trump citation marks a banner day for the idiotic but unkillable idea that it's exonerating for Flynn that, before obtaining evidence showing that Flynn lied, FBI agents didn't know he was lying.
It's close to impossible to read Flynn's Statement of Offense, in which he admitted falsely telling the FBI he hadn't talked to Kislyak during the transition about sanctions, when actually he had, without accepting that he lied. It's on the internet: justice.gov/file/1015126/d…
There have been like 47 articles by Byron York et al. asserting that the agents who interviewed Flynn initially believed him, so somehow that means he didn't lie. That is nonsense. It just means he lied convincingly, as effective liars do. But evidence falsified his claims.
