    It's actually stunning the degree to which White House prioritized Rudy's blathering on the Sunday shows over a discussion of SCOTUS pick. There's no news reason to have Rudy. None.

        Things we should be hearing about on Sunday news shows, in my priority order: 1. Jim Jordan scandal escalating in real time 2. Analysis of the #KremlinKaucus going to Russia 3. SCOTUS pick (limit to 5 minutes until there's actual updates) ... 999. Rudy G

        Need more than 280 characters for the stuff more important than what Rudy says. 4. New attempt to torpedo ACA by admin 5. Trump's meeting with Putin with no witnesses 6. Failure of states to secure the 2018 election with paper ballots & risk limiting audits ... 999. Rudy G

        His purpose is distract & deflect the media, send messages to mueller, i.e. today was how the president asked comey to go light on flynn when trump defiantly said he did not. They now say nothing wrong with that. These tactics also keep everyone from covering what really goes on.

        The WH needs to distract media from the SCOTUS pick until after the Senate vote. Otherwise, public pressure will build on the D Senators the WH needs to vote in favor. Plenty of time to brag later. Might be the most disciplined messaging we've seen from them yet.

        These are the things they care about. The threat Muller proves to the President, that's what comes first. The concerns of the nation matter little to them.

        Rudy’s a distraction and the news media chases him around like six year olds chasing a soccer ball.

        Unless White House knows something more damning is about to surface re the Mueller probe and thought the belligerent TV lawyer needed to make the TV rounds again.https://twitter.com/emptywheel/status/1016049728948228097?s=19 …

        What's the deal with Giuliani being involved anyway? Did Donny hire him because he prosecuted the mob and knows a lot about money laundering?

        trying to hide the utter screwup with NK perhaps? Or Trump's fear of Cohen and Mueller overriding all else this weekend.
