(COMBO) This combination of pictures created on November 5, 2017 shows a file photo taken on January 10, 2017 showing Lieutenant General Michael Flynn (ret.), National Security Advisor Designate speaking during a conference on the transition of the US Presidency from Barack Obama to Donald Trump at the US Institute Of Peace in Washington DC, January 10, 2017. and A file photo taken on November 2, 2017 showing US President Donald Trump listening to a speaker as he announces that Broadcom would be moving back to the US in the Oval Office at the White House in Washington, DC, on November 2, 2017. A new poll, released a year after Donald Trump's stunning electoral victory, shows the US president suffering historically dismal approval ratings as the Russia investigation casts a continuing shadow. A week after news that former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort and two other men had been indicted, NBC reported on November 5, 2017 that federal investigators have sufficient evidence to bring charges against Trump's former national security adviser Michael Flynn and his son, who has worked with him. / AFP PHOTO / CHRIS KLEPONIS AND NICHOLAS KAMMCHRIS KLEPONIS,NICHOLAS KAMM/AFP/Getty Images
