      ... but for the rest of you, here are a few things that have happened: This got attention yesterday afternoon, but the story is pretty much just a half-cooked trial balloon, if you look closely at the language: https://www.wsj.com/articles/trump-lawyers-seek-deal-with-mueller-to-speed-end-of-russia-probe-1520625944 …pic.twitter.com/adTpWHrIFZ

      Then there was this absolutely bonkers story last night that the White House (and, apparently, DOJ) are considering ways to turn Singapore's drug policies into American law. https://www.washingtonpost.com/national/trump-administration-studying-possibility-of-seeking-death-penalty-for-drug-dealers/2018/03/09/4d9cc994-23c3-11e8-94da-ebf9d112159c_story.html?utm_term=.9935e9ae8257 …pic.twitter.com/IkMPDW6xHt

      On Singapore, which has the death penalty on the books (and extrajudicial killings to boot) for drug dealers: "'That is seen as the holistic approach that approximates what this White House is trying to do,' a senior administration official said."

      This morning, GMA aired its interview with Sam Nunberg, who appeared before Mueller's grand jury on Friday:http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/trump-aide-speaks-mueller-russia-probe-witch-hunt/story?id=53650541 …

      Finally, there is this, just recently published from @maggieNYT and @nytmike, which reports that Emmet Flood met with Trump this week about joining the WH legal team dealing w Mueller and that Ty Cobb doesn't expect to stay much longer:https://www.nytimes.com/2018/03/10/us/politics/trump-mueller-flood.html …

      I mean: It's doublespeak that speaks for itself. Flood wouldn't replace Cobb, but Flood meets with Trump this past week after Cobb has been saying for weeks that he expects to leave soon.

          He might not, technically, be replacing him if he comes on board (it would be a different phase of things, so he'd have a different role or something), but it's six of one, half-dozen of the other, IMHO.
