In a dramatic development involving Mike Flynn, President Trump’s former national security adviser who resigned just a few weeks into his tenure over allegations surrounding his Russian connections, the WSJ reports that he has told the FBI and congressional officials investigating the Trump campaign’s potential ties to Russia that he is willing to testify and be interviewed in exchange for immunity from prosecution, "according to officials with knowledge of the matter."

After being formally impeached just three weeks ago, former South Korea President Park Geun-hye was arrested on Friday in connection with a corruption scandal that led to her removal from office, Yonhap reports.

The Seoul Central District Court issued a warrant to detain Park on charges of bribery, abuse of authority, coercion and leaking government secrets, after a marathon hearing the previous day. State prosecutors filed the request on Monday to arrest Park, citing the graveness of the alleged crimes and the possibility of the destruction of evidence.

In an example of a FISA-warranted surveillance done right, on Wednesday the FBI announced the arrest of a veteran State Department employee with access to top secret information, who was accused of failing to report numerous contacts with Chinese foreign intelligence agents who provided her with "tens of thousands of dollars in gifts and benefits" in exchange for diplomatic and economic information, federal prosecutors said.

Yesterday, President Trump and VP Pence hosted the Fraternal Order of Police (FOP), the nation's largest police union and a big supporter of Trump's 2016 campaign, at the White House as part of his effort to keep an 'open dialogue' with law enforcement officials of the country. 

It was an honor to welcome @GLFOP to the @WhiteHouse today with @VP Pence & Attorney General Sessions. THANK YOU for all you do 24/7/365! pic.twitter.com/UOKsiqMpsx

When it comes to hedge fund paranoia, few can hold a light to the world's undisputed leader: Ray Dalio's Bridgewater - the former employer of current FBI director James Comey - which in addition to maintaining absolute secrecy about its operations, policies and culture, and vigorously pursuing anyone who disseminates Dalio's famous morning notes, has relentlessly sued any former employees who breach the company's notorious non-compete. And now, Bridgewater has lashed out at a 24-year-old computer contractor from Hamden, whom it accuses of stealing confidential documents.
