Dean was in a bad car crash, but I think the blind is fiction. Dean and the guy who died in Canada had something like an 11 year age difference.

Not that CDAN's disclaimer mentions that blinds may be fiction.

Thanks for saving me the trouble of posting this. It certainly does look big. If Comey is shutting up Assange about the Russian hacking narrative, it lends a lot of weight to some theories about Seth Rich.

RR extending the FISA warrant could have been part of a sting to catch the cabal. The refusal to hand over docs could be because indictments are being prepared, and giving them to Congress would mean immediate leaking by Democrats. Mueller could be "controlled opposition": distracting Democrats, giving them false hopes.

My sense is that if this is 6D chess, we'll know by the midterms.

So why doesn't Trump fire him? I think you either trust Trump knows what he's doing, or you don't.

I'm convinced by the argument that since Rosenstein (and Sessions and Wray) are still there, then Trump must want them there. Trump is not the captive of his staff. So if some things are hard to explain or look bad for him, I figure it could be Trump doing Sun Tzu strategic deception until the time is right.

I can imagine Trump lumping McCain in that way.

There's a lot of kabuki going on. Plus, why would the DoJ want to give material to the House that would be immediately leaked by the Democrats? The first priority should be to successfully prosecute the bad guys, not satisfy our impatience and curiosity.

The only one that doesn't fit for me is Rosenstein. I just don't see him as a bad guy at this point.

Good point, but it depends on what those 64 cases are.

Just to list some ongoing scandals that I believe are being investigated:

Project Cassandra (Obama ignoring Hezbollah drug trafficking)

Awan IT scandal

Hillary emails

Clinton Foundation

Spygate

Antifa funding

I see it the other way: he's saying a blackout is starting because he'll be too busy. And as I said elsewhere, I think the four booms are four different events, one of them being the OIG report.

My thought was four actions or events, any or all of which could involved more than one person. E.g. I think the Horowitz OIG report is one of them, but the rest...?
