GSA approved of using Signal, which could mean Flynn’s messages—if he did use the application—may never come to light.

“Our IT lead has confirmed that we can install an App on the [Presidential Transition Team] phones called Signal. This will provide secure voice and text,” a GSA employee wrote on November 28.
