New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R) says he didn't see any "red flags" with former national security adviser Michael Flynn in the past.

“[There were] not red flags concerning something as specific as that,” he said Tuesday on ABC’s “Good Morning America."

Flynn lost his job as President Trump's national security adviser after it became known that he had misled top officials, including Vice President Mike Pence Michael (Mike) Richard PenceGOP short of votes on Trump's controversial Fed pick Pence seeks to boost Daines in critical Montana Senate race The Hill's Campaign Report: Trump's rally risk | Biden ramps up legal team | Biden hits Trump over climate policy MORE, about conversations with the Russian ambassador.

The New Jersey governor said he told Trump about disagreements he had with Flynn.

“[Flynn] was not always my cup of tea in terms of style, and I made that clear to the candidate at the time,” he said.

“My advice to the president is my advice to the president, and I don’t talk about that publicly,” he added. "Suffice to say that Gen. Flynn and I didn’t necessarily see eye to eye on certain things.”

Former acting Attorney General Sally Yates on Monday said she warned the White House that Flynn created a “compromise situation.”

“This was problem because not only do we believe that the Russians knew this, but that they likely had proof of this information — and that created a compromise situation, where the national security adviser essentially could be blackmailed by the Russians,” she said at a Senate Judiciary subcommittee hearing.

Yates was referring to Flynn misleading Pence about a December call with Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak.

Reports on Monday revealed that former President Obama warned Trump against hiring Flynn at a White House meeting last November.
