It depends on WHAT he was supposed to "work on," and we haven't heard that yet, as far as I know.

I can only think and hope that Mueller wouldn't let Flynn basically walk unless there's something big there.

But it's possible that Flynn is going to be the scapegoat. The one thrown to the crowds. And there won't be enough evidence to get anyone else.
