So where are the arrests that were supposed to come this week?

[GetRidOfThem]

Is anyone still predicting arrests this week, or was this just wishful thinking?

I know it is only Tuesday, but still.. It does not look like anything will be happening...

3. Two things

1. It's Tuesday
2. It's not like ordering a pizza, 30 minutes or it's free.

5. The Operative Words In Those Predictions Were....

May & Could

[Qutzupalotl]

6. ...and "as early as next (this) week."

Meaning this week was the earliest it would happen, so it's open-ended.

The chatter did sound like the FBI's case was solid and indictments imminent, but there are very few leaks today. Calm before the storm, or not.

14. Honestly...I Think It Will Be A While

The FBI moves at a snail's pace ordinarily and with this big a case, they're not going to mess around putting it forward until it as near to perfect as they can get.

After all, we're not dealing with Hillary here.

18. Anything falls into the category of "may and could"

The sun may and could explode and we would all be dead in about 8 minutes. The so-called prediction came from a completely discredited internet blog.

7. Afiter Fitzmas, I pay little attention to peoples' hopes and dreams.

[zipplewrath]

12. Or Karl

And then there were the breathless explanations of how Obama was going to cancel the election and have a do over.

8. It's like domesticated nuclear fusion

It remains the same distance in the near future.

10. There are coming...so have faith...welcome to DU.

[Coventina]

11. I think that was next "business" week. You know, last week was Holy Week so it doesn't count.

And, yesterday was Easter Monday, so that doesn't count either....

13. I get where you are coming from.

For sure.

[ananda]

15. The chatter has gone silent, so ...

... draw your own conclusions.

[GetRidOfThem]

17. OK, the chatter is picking up again, this time in the mainstream media

Today is Thursday, and when the alarm went off with NPR's All Things Considered, the Russia link and related investigation was in the headlines again, apparently because of something the New York Times had published. I then went to my own printed copies of the Times and the Washington Post, did not have the time to read the details, but it is clear that the chatter is up again. This is a slow-boiling egg....
