Rachel never answered the question...

or maybe I missed it last night: WHY SO MANY ROLLING DISCLOSURES HAPPENING RIGHT NOW?

She segued after that question to her assertion that Russia is still at it with eviscerating the State Dept. But I don't believe she answered the fundamental question.

Anyone?

Thanks in advance!

My hypothesis is that there is just so much to consume that it's best to serve it up in small, intellectually digestible bites. That does run the risk of normalizing each small step down the road but the alternative might just be overwhelming enough to cause disengagement.

Also - Big or Small...news is like fish. Good for 2-3 days and then it starts to get stinky.

more intended to continue discussion than to actually provide a definitive answer to anything.

She's doing all right. I hope MSNBC is providing security for her. I don't trust Russpublicans.
