BREAKING per NBC: “The Manhattan DA plans to convene the grand jury again Thursday, according to two sources familiar with the matter.”

1. Whatever. I'll pay attention when/if something actually happens.

Until then...

[we can do it]

4. Yawn

[mcar]

5. Only Trump said it was happening this week

Why do we at DU listen to him?

[uncle ray]

13. well, you are apparantly paying some attention now.

[NewHendoLib]

29. I watch no news. I am a member of DU. I contribute. I scan news here.

But I watch and listen to no news at all, and have no expectations that anything will happen to TFG.

[Ohio Joe]

26. And yet...

You were the first to reply

[CanonRay]

2. Wake me up when it happens.

[dalton99a]

3. Rinse and repeat

[Cha]

6. Yeah can't be don't w/o the GJ

Convening

[Tree Lady]

7. This is just like CNN showing a empty stage

in 2016, he is sucking the air out again.

[Delphinus]

8. I had to laugh!

"On like Donkey Kong"!

[brettdale]

9. And we all know that Sources

Have never been wrong.

[sarisataka]

10. Annnd here we go again...

It's not even 1:30 in the afternoon Honolulu time. That means the three "sources" still have over 10 hours to be correct on the Wednesday prediction.

[newdayneeded]

11. This time for ssuuurrrreeeee!!

[Silent Type]

12. Apparently, they are recalling Cohen.

[ShazzieB]

34. Do you have a source for this?

Just wondering. I've been digging around and haven't found anything yet.

[Silent Type]

36. Heard it on CNN around 5:00 PM. The legal "experts" were saying

the recall could be good or bad.

The “bad” would be if DA is afraid Cohen might be discredited by past lying. “Good” would be if they are just tying up a few loose ends before ending jury.

My conclusion, they don’t have the slightest idea.

[ShazzieB]

37. I agree with your analysis.

It will be interesting to see what happens.

[Silent3]

14. Breaking...

[Johnny2X2X]

15. Police barricades

The fact that they had police barricades deployed was telling to me. So maybe this is it. Who knows.

[ShazzieB]

17. The timing of this is definitely suggestive to me.

They may be getting ready to tie up whatever loose ends are left before making their final ruling. That could explain Cohen being called back in.

Whatever happens tomorrow, I firmly believe I-Day is not far off.

[triron]

32. Huh. Cohen got called back in??

[ShazzieB]

33. Maybe, maybe not.

See post no. 12, above. No source is mentioned, though, and I haven't been able to verify it, so I may have spoken too soon.

16. in the meantime, here's a recipe for fluffy pancakes

Important Ingredients You Will Need:

Flour – all-purpose
Baking Powder and Soda – This will add the thickness to the pancakes.
Sugar – Granulated is used in this recipe, but you can use any sweetener you prefer like stevia, coconut sugar, or brown sugar.
Butter – we listed unsalted and then add the salt in to control the amount of salt.
Egg – only 1 egg is needed.
Milk – Whole milk, reduced-fat, or skim milk will work in this recipe. For dairy-free pancakes, substitute non-dairy milk for almond or oat milk.
Vanilla Extract – this will add a nice flavor to the pancakes.

Directions

Combine the dry ingredients in a bowl, then add wet ingredients.
Whisk until smooth.
Pour the batter on a heated pan on both sides until golden.
Serve with maple syrup, honey or fruit and enjoy!

24. Classic old internet meme

[llmart]

20. Such a bogus recipe.

There aren't even any amounts given for the dry ingredients.

They do look yummy though.

[IcyPeas]

27. Oh, yeah . Here's the link.

Page way down the page... there's a video and the recipe is just below that

30. Thank You - And My Appreciations (n/t)

[getagrip_already]

18. They routinely meet on Monday, weds, and thursdays...

Nothing unusual about meeting on schedule. Not meeting today was an exception, but not significant.

[InstantGratification]

23. Yep

We don't know the purpose of the meeting, they could meet to take more witness testimony. Plus, even if they were meeting to deliberate whether to indict, it doesn't mean they will finish those deliberations and vote tomorrow. Even if they did vote to indict tomorrow, Alvin Bragg still has to decide whether or not to file the charges (that seems very likely if the GJ indicts). If Bragg files charges, formal notice still has to be made to the defendant. Love him or hate him (yeah we all know where we stand on that point), Trump is as high a profile defendant as there is, those guys usually get offered the chance to surrender peacefully and avoid a perp walk. Bragg's prosecutors and Trump's defense team would likely negotiate the terms of the surrender. All of that would take more time than is likely to be completed this week.

My point of all this, to both the optimists and the pessimists in the audience, is this: You Ain't Likely To Know One Way Or The Other How This Is Going To Go From Anything You See This Week. It will take longer than that. How much longer? Beats the hell out of me. My guess is next week at the earliest, I have no special insight into what step Bragg is on or how many more steps he plans to take. My guess is just that, A Wild Ass Guess.

[ShazzieB]

35. I think you're right about not knowing anything this week..

My own wild ass guess is that it will be relatively soon (next week wouldn't surprise me), but this week is almost over for all intents and purposes, or it will be when the GJ meets tomorrow.

It's hard to resist trying to guess what every little thing that happens might mean (I suck at resisting that temptation myself), but it's best not to get too caught up in it.

[yaesu]

22. It's like.watching reruns of dragnet only Friday never leaves his apartment. ny

[Beastly Boy]

25. Well, the surprise is gone, but it's still unusual.

I remain curious.

[iemanja]

31. Which means an arrest isn't imminent

and all those rumors were bullshit. WFT anyone believed Trump is beyond me.

[Initech]

38. I want him to be arrested in the middle of the night when there's no cameras around.

Because if he’s arrested in the middle of the day, you know he’ll make a big spectacle of it and sell his sob story and overuse hyperbole to his MAGA brainwashed fan base.

[Johnny2X2X]

39. Delayed until next week now

I wonder if these prosecutors realize that every delay helps Trump and is exactly what he wants.

[BannonsLiver]

40. Update: None of this happened
