without exposing himself. Because everything Flynn did was on Trump's authority.

"Flynn, you promised the Russians we would stop the sanctions. You lied about it to the US government and to the US people. You are guilty of treason.

Sean Spicer, YOU'RE FIRED!"

along with others. We don't know what kind of agreement they may have. Perhaps they agreed that if found out Flynn would take the fall for the rest. tRump would make sure he was well cared for in the exchange. That way tRump's regime could keep on going with their plans and his followers would consider him a brave man for firing Flynn.
