Stocks are red. Trey Gowdy is abruptly retiring from Congress. Everybody is laughing at what looks like drool dribbling from the edge of Joe Kennedy's mouth during his rebuttal to last night's State of the Union.

And along comes Reuters, dropping a bombshell headline that, if accurate, could shift the narrative of the multiple investigations involving Russia and obstruction of justice.

Reuters quoted Adam Schiff, the top Democrat on the House Intel Committee, who believes the contents of the four-page memo about allegedly egregious FBI abuses of FISA set for public release in the next several days, could lead to the firing of Special Counsel Bob Mueller, or more likely Deputy AG Rod Rosenstein.

TOP DEMOCRAT ON U.S. HOUSE INTELLIGENCE COMMITTEE SAYS REPUBLICAN MEMO SETS STAGE FOR POSSIBLE FIRING OF SPECIAL COUNSEL MUELLER OR MORE LIKELY DEPUTY ATTORNEY GENERAL ROSENSTEIN
And:

U.S. HOUSE INTELLIGENCE COMMITTEE CHAIRMAN NUNES SAYS "NO SURPRISE" TO SEE THE FBI AND JUSTICE DEPARTMENT ISSUE "SPURIOUS OBJECTIONS" TO REPUBLICAN MEMO -STATEMENT

Now the question of course is whether this is a statement of fact - in other words the FISA memo contains cause for termination - or a smoke screen to claim that Mueller's firing is only made possible by the "political act" that is the imminent release of the FISA memo.

I'm still waiting for anything of substance to come from this crap. Seems like it has the howler monkeys here all stirred up (as usual), but little else.

IF (and I still believe it's a mighty big 'if', they were to fire Mueller and Rosenstein that certainly would be fantastic, but firing them and then charging them with a crime would be, oh, so sweet!  At that point in time the prosecution would be able to cut them a 'deal' if they were to provide evidence on Hillary.  I can dream can't I?

When you are critical of people over "instant gratification,"

Reflect on your own timing expectations over episodes such as this.

I recall watching Watergate unfold, on KPFK radio, newspapers, nightly news on

one of three network channels. For a high voltage shot, try Dick Cavett on late night.
