I choose to assume that Robert Mueller is smarter then any of the principles in the crosshairs of this investigation. I have no idea how much longer we'll have to wait before there will be a public disclosure of Mueller's report. But I do hope the public will see said report. In the meantime, this has been one of the more speculative-fueling weeks to date.
Supposedly, acting AG Whitaker has promised Democrats that he will follow "all the regulations, policies, and procedures" that govern Mueller's investigation. That's nice of him. We'll see. If he has any sense of how History will judge him, that would be a good decision on his part:

In the meantime, the week's developments has resulted in some interesting speculation, and perspective on that ponderous "no collusion" mantra...
Cohen's plea suggest Russians held "kompromat" on Mr. Trump:

The legal perils that Cohen's guilty plea holds for Donald Trump:

Yeah, I can see where the Don would be freaking out right about now:

The whitehouse blocked the CIA from explaining their stance on the Khashoggi murder. Also known as "Yo ********s, Khashoggi was murdered, it was premeditated, and Mohammed bin Salman ordered it". No explanation was ever proposed why.
A few senators got together today with the CIA(I believe 8), and they've even the GOP are all "wtf, yo?"
Meanwhile, Rand Paul is continuing his deep state, "...but they didn't include me" rhetoric.
It is not known why there was a smaller senate group, but it only included 8 senators. So I guess the "deep state" he's whining about are eight people from both sides of the room.

Robert Mueller’s office recommended on Tuesday evening that former White House national security adviser Michael Flynn serve little to no jail time, because his assistance on the investigation into Trump campaign’s collusion with Russia was “particularly valuable.”
The redacted bits of the memo are a work of art:
SCO
Addendum to Government’s memorandum in aid of sentencing, page 2 of 6Q
Three investigations referenced in the Flynn memo are completely redacted; one is not. In the unredacted investigation, Flynn is credited for knowing about “coordination between the Russian government and individuals associated with the Trump campaign.”
Which raises an obvious question: What are the investigations that Mueller won’t name, and how could they be more sensitive than colluding with the Kremlin?

That long nose is conveniently placed against the the statue behind him. I giggled mightily and a scrolled back up(I'm at work, can't have that). It was a few seconds before I realized it was just a guys nose.
Very well played.

Big news in Trump land. Cohen's sentencing documents make clear that federal prosecutor's believe Trump directed Cohen to commit multiple felonies. Obviously Trump himself isn't going to be indicted himself (at least not while serving as president) but this does open the door for Democrats in the house to explore impeachment in earnest.

But wait, there's more to come.
What did Flynn know and tell to get a recommendation of no time? What are Manafort's lies and how do we know they are lies? When this comes to be public knowledge, it will rock 45 to his base. Will even they stay with him?
It will likely all come crashing down on his head like Maxwell's silver hammer.

The several components of what Mueller has revealed so far that point to the fact that he's got Trump where collusion with Putin and Russia is concerned. I'll add another: the countless, by now, times in which Trump has tweeted "NO COLLUSION!" should be reason enough to know this pathological liar colluded.
https://www.thedailybeast.com/mueller-is-telling-us-hes-got-trump-on-collusion
"In the face of what Mueller has revealed, there is little question where this is going. Mueller may still be only showing us part of his hand, but it’s a damn good hand. He has signalled to us he’s found collusion. He has shown us that the president is compromised. He has told us that he has gathered information important to his investigation about contacts with people in the Trump Organization, the campaign, the transition, and even the White House. That’s everyone Trump has been connected with since he started running. And given all the redacted information in his filings and all that he’s been told by cooperating witnesses, we can be confident that Mueller will show us even more.
Mueller is coming. And he is clearly coming for Trump. Not simply for obstructing justice but for conspiring with a hostile foreign power to win an election. This is a scandal unlike any America has ever seen."
