He's not out in front taking credit for something he had nothing to do with. I'm sure he's just running slow today. It will come. Nothing gets in the way of his vanity.

Maybe not Old Yeller, but, before the day is out some GrOPper will be waving a sword around and foaming at the mouth.

The case is not political, but, the timing most assuredly is.

*checks polls* Yep.

After over 3 years of radio silence... Now, they're talking about it again.

Flop sweat.

We're all on high alert right now because we're so close to an election, but this doesn't seem like much of anything.

And given everything else that's going on, announcing the prosecution of a couple of ISIS members is unlikely to make much of a dent in the news.

They were just extradited. It's the last two who were involved in decapitating the journalists way back in the Obama administration.
