Retired Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn on Friday accepted President-elect Donald Trump's offer to be his national security adviser, Fox News confirmed.
Flynn, who served as the director of the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) between 2012 and 2014, has advised Trump on national security issues for months.
As national security adviser, he would work in the White House and have frequent access to the president.
The position does not require confirmation by the Senate. Whoever holds it is typically shielded from congressional requests to testify or produce documents.
