The headlines just can’t quit you!
- Oh, goody! Special Counsel Robert Mueller is going to question White House communications tzarina Hope Hicks.

- Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump must now go through John Kelly if they so much as want to talk with The Donald. Jared’s role in White House decision-making has all but collapsed.
- Ed Krassenstein, in an unrolled Twitter thread, explains to role in Russiagate of Konstantin Rykov, a Kremlin propagandist who spilled details of conspiracy and collusion between Russian agents and the Trump Campaign last November.
