Has the media stopped caring about Trump x Russia? I hardly ever see that new Jared felony

mentioned. Everything has become so normalized that anything less than the pee tape itself is just the status quo.

5. When the FBI arrests a big name that will change. N/T

4. I think the investigation is going to be a long one. Can't be the top of

the news every night. I'm beginning to think Trump was duped by those he surrounded himself with over the years. Still a serious crime if those around Trump were in collusion with Putin. When did Trump know is what I'd like to know. But I'm speculating.

6. disappearing firewall

I think tRump knew the Russian Connection would be an issue, especially after inauguration. You have to admit, he built himself a pretty good firewall given Flynn at NSA, Sessions at Justice, Nunes at House Intell Committee and Burr in the Senate Committee. They've all pretty much gone by the wayside save Burr. But Burr has to be careful, as he represents a State that seems to be going blue. Susan Collins of Maine fucked up tRump's advantage in Senate Intel by voting with Democrats. There seems to have evolved a perception that the Senate Intel Committee needs to be more investigative and bipartisan.

Yeah, tRump's firewall has eroded quickly. Pootie's diversion with the Syrian gassings and subsequent feud with Tillerson were meant to prove that tRump is not really pootie's bitch, and provide some needed diversions. But the IC is too close.

7. So many moving pieces right now. Glad the intelligence communities are serious about the

investigations. The truth will come out.

8. Let's hope FBI remains on the case

Comey can be a bit fickle.

9. Trump has just been through one of his brief "presidential" interludes (according to the media).

He's rapidly descending back to demented tweeter and the crime family will be front and center again soon.

10. No...the story continues...and gets worse and worse for Trump ET AL.
