Obviously Chris Hayes planned his whole show for the Flynn memo

[Jersey Devil]

He just seems to be killing time speculating about it.

1. Always good to have a Plan B

2. You win some, you lose some

Rachel Maddow probably has a well-researched, well-planned show that will get blown up five minutes before air. She does do a great job of improvising though

4. I can picture Rachel frantically reading it for the first time

and peeking at her monitor to see if her producers have zeroed in on the juicy parts so she can start reading those too. I was pleased last night when she said she doesn't want to do any more podcasts because the one she did drove her crazy. She prepares her show so well I have to figure the podcast was starting to interfere with that.

3. I like the headlines - Breaking: Awaiting...or

MuellerCourt filing expected.
What is breaking there other than many blood vessels of pissed off folks?

5. I think Flynn

is interested in recovering from this better than Ollie North did who is condemned to be a pardoned felon.

Flynn spent a career in the Army and was a success. After he retired from the service this opportunity came along and a chance to make some real money, and live well for the rest of his life. A mistake as it turns out.

I think he cooperated and has promised to continue to cooperate. By doing so he can gain absolution.

Also, after this is over Fox News may not have a great future.

6. Mueller has until midnight.

Seth Abramson also waiting to live tweet as he reads it.

7. Anderson Cooper has it. Maybe Chris has it, too - I switched channels. nt
