After Michael Flynn resigned after admitting to misleading Mike Pence about his relations with Russia, a CNN national security analyst believes he may be talking with the FBI.

The FBI is currently investigating Trump's ties to the country.

On Saturday's CNN Tonight, Juliette Kayyem said, "It is starting to look like, from my sources and then also from open reporting, that Mike Flynn is the one who may have a deal with the FBI..."

Kayyem added, "...that's why we have not heard from him for some time."

Once the segment spread on social media like wildfire, Kayyem posted a statement on Facebook Sunday.

In it, she writes, "...to be clear, I did not say on this segment that I have any confirmation that he is actually cooperating or that I have talked to anyone who does."

Kayyem says her informed analysis of this case is based on her significant experience in the national security arena.

She also says her sources in the field "are increasingly wondering the same thing."
