more in the "Who will it be?" department, and possibly when. Based on the way The Dotard and his cult followers are reacting to the the news, something is coming down. It is just a matter of when it will happen, and who will indicted. It might not be tomorrow, and it might not be any of the big fish Mueller will likely fry at some point. The old "chess game" game comparison tends to get overused, but that's pretty much what is going on here. Sometimes you have to take out a few pawns and rooks before you can get at the king and queen.
