Deserve a full measure of justice for what they and all their Republican and Russian cronies have done.

Weasels are noble beasts compared to these vermin. Call 'em termites, or slugs or some other slithering worthless creature, but don't impugn the weasels with this comparison.

...on his Saturday pre-show live Facebook feed.

As he has to be up at 4 am, he went to bed at 930 with his show all nicely planned out. He wakes up to a show in ruins and staff losing it trying to get a revamp in place.

Best-laid plans and all that. Get used to it.

6. It will be Manafort

The Feds will offer him a deal he can't refuse. Stay out of jail once he tells everything he knows.
Manafort will sing like a canary.





FWIW I think Mueller is still a ways from arresting any of the Trump family. He does need Manafort's testimony, and maybe Cohen's.

Even if he doesn't get Manafort, he's got a plan.
Cheeto can't pardon somebody before they're convicted anyway.

But I hope Mueller has a plan one way or the other.

That might be used to keep him from doing that. It's too complex for me to recall and I'm no legal expert. Maybe someone will come along and help us out here. But Mueller might have options when it comes to that.

It could be two or three of them, or another of their associates.
