Notes from yesterday on The Administration's myriad troubles

by Jack Brummet, Scandal Ed.

1) It will be a real mind effer if the Attorney General invokes the 5th Amendment today. 

2) Almost more likely, he un-recuses himself, fires Mueller and maybe Rosenstein two hours before the hearing. 

3) Less likely: the Veep, the generals, Tillerson, etc., run a 25th amendment coup d'etat.

4) I know everyone thinks the public accolade part of the first full cabinet meeting had chimes of 3rd world/totalitarian politics. This is overthinking it; the cabinet merely provided, in exchange for their honor, what is known in the dating world as a courtesy fuck.
