A couple things came out of today. The famous “boss” email. It was not a reference to Trump, it was a reference to Sessions.
The second thing was that RR had no choice but to call a special counsel. Trump had fired all the US attorneys and only three were still left to handle anything, all Obama leftovers on their way out.

I think another important thing from RR today is what he did NOT say. He did not give the democrats anything new (in fact they complained about that) and he stopped well short of criticizing the Trump administraton or key advisors. They were hoping for a feast and got a thin gruel instead. By going on the record and admitting there was no “there there”, the predication for continuing the investigation was clearly absent. He framed the issues for subsequent testimony and McCabe will be able to read the tread on the bus tires soon.
