Retired Lt. Gen Michael Flynn has promised “full cooperation” in the special counsel’s Russia investigation and, according to a confidant, and is prepared to testify that Donald Trump directed him to make contact with the Russians, initially as a way to work together to fight ISIS in Syria.
The stunning turn comes as Flynn, who is cooperating with investigators in Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s probe, pleaded guilty to one count of lying to the FBI about his back-channel negotiations with the Russian ambassador – talks that occurred before Trump took office. The Special Counsel made the plea agreement public Friday morning.
A close confidant told ABC News that Flynn felt abandoned by Trump in recent weeks, and told friends about the decision to make the plea deal within the last 24 hours as he grew increasingly concerned about crippling legal costs he would face if he continued to contest the charges.

Even if it is the case.
Not a damned thing wrong with it.
Then why lie about it?
All part of the "set-up" plan to smear Trump I suspect.

My guess is that Flynn is NOT an Obama plant...and that he will not implicate Trump.

I mean why did Trump lie? He said there were no attempts to contact Russia.
If innocent then why lie? That makes you look guilty.
