Check in if you are starting to come down with "24 hour indictment flu".

Monday is going to be one of those great days to be on DU all day long. Race for the latest news, relaying the funniest intentional wise ass comment from our sides and the hilarious bs from the other.

Face it, you are starting to feel a little scratchy in the throat, stomach is queasy, and headache with possible pink eye (not even going to describe your bowel irritation).

This is the time that IF you are coming down with something you would be the most contagious.

You owe it to your coworkers to stay home tomorrow.

😧😫😷🤕😲

I thought they stated the earliest would be Monday.

Why are people acting like something is gonna absolutely happen Monday? Did I miss something?

The unusual nature of the leak and the fact that there was no denial has led some experts to predict early Monday will be the reveal.

I am getting a catheter so I won't miss any perp walk, lol.

Which makes it impossible to take the day off—grandchild transport duty tomorrow. But I’ll have the radio to follow along and my phone to check DU while I’m waiting.

I've been remembering the day my brother and I knew Nixon was set to resign. And when the Iran-Contra scandal started And I truly enjoyed the Scooter Libby show, hanging out on DU with all our friends.

Tomorrow is a historic day. It should be outstanding. Still, I advise those who didn't experience the unfolding of those crimes to set the bar relatively low per expectations. We may see the media report that it was a "small fish." But there are no small fish in the Trump mafia. None. When we know who is indicted, and for what, the best part may be Trump's outbursts 24 hours later.

I will never forget the electricity when Butterfield came in and every one at the Senator/staff tables were staring intently when he said that there were recording devices in the White House.

First time I ever experienced 50 million people thinking "no shit" at exactly the same time.

I've been watching (on Youtube) films of the hearings, and the the news coverage from Watergate. There's a lot of it that people today can learn from.

Looks for words about a "continuing conspiracy" by "persons named and unnamed."

Guess who my best bet for a "person unnamed" might be!?!
