Michael Flynn, President Trump's former national security adviser, is expected to give some documents related to his businesses to the Senate Intelligence Committee, people with knowledge of his decision told The Associated Press and The Wall Street Journal on Tuesday.

The Senate panel had subpoenaed Flynn's personal and business records as part of its investigation of Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election and possible collusion with the Trump campaign. Flynn had invoked his Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination to reject an earlier subpoena from the committee. WSJ reports Flynn will begin to turn over the documents as early as next week.
