Open-book test: I started suggesting this several months ago. It will be interesting to see how this plays out. From twitter today:

Maxine: I'll fact-check this later tonight but I heard on talk radio today that Mad Maxine is starting to walk back her comments about "impeaching Trump," suggesting that, according to her, it was only a small group talking about "impeaching Trump."

The fact that Nancy Pelosi was dialing back "impeachment" talk two months ago, one wonders if she got advance information from Mueller. I was in the USAF for 30 years and worked among the highest level of the DOD hierarchy/bureaucracy the last nine years of my life, and have a pretty good feeling for how these things play out. For a two-year investigation of a president, Mueller had to start letting folks know several weeks before, perhaps several months before, the report was released, that it was going to be a big nothing-burger. Had he hinted to Nancy Pelosi that major crimes were committed, it's very possible Pelosi's comments on impeachment would have been very different. Re-constructing the events of the past six months becomes curiouser and curiouser.

Ratings: I can hardly wait for Drudge to report the cable news ratings this week.

Brexit: all done at the end of this week? The tea leaves suggest so.
