So it's now October 10, 2018 and....Rod Rosenstein is STILL not fired.
He's STILL in charge of the Mueller investigation.
He's STILL refusing to hand over the McCabe memos.
He's STILL holding up the declassification of the #SpyGate documents & their release to the public.
And Trump came out of AF1 and gave ol' Rod a big thumbs up!
And so we're right back to 'that dirty rat Rosenstein!' 2 days later.
Note the conflicting stories about 'Rosenstein cancelled meeting with Congress on Oct 11!"

Rep. Andy Biggs and Rep. Matt Gaetz say DAG Rod Rosenstein cancelled an Oct. 11 appearance before the judiciary and oversight committees. They are now calling for a subpoena. pic.twitter.com/TknVHKjXtd

And then all of a sudden...
https://t.co/WISX1Rdf6M
Multiple sources now telling me there was no meeting set for Oct. 11 so there was nothing to cancel.

This is all deliberate. Nobody knows what's really going on, which is fantastic.
Trump's ENEMIES will never figure it out until it's too late.
How's the hunt for the other leakers inside Congress that James Wolfe was leaking for? We don't know.
How's the progress on DOJ IG Horowitz's FISA Court Abuse report? We don't know.
Isn't glorious? We don't know...and Trump's enemies haven't got a clue either. They are completely in the dark. They don't know the timetable.
Some people still reject this.
Mueller's now desperately digging through the long-deceased Fred Trump's estate taxes, looking for something, ANYTHING he can find.
The issue in play right now is HOW BADLY ARE THE BOMBS TRUMP & HIS TEAM ARE ABOUT TO DROP GOING TO HIT THE COUP PLOTTERS?

Thread in progress that makes an excellent point: Far Left Progressives thought they had ALREADY WON. And I mean already won *permanently*.
After Obama won in 2008 there were numerous articles/books about the New Permanent Democratic
James Carville among others were crowing "The DemuhKRATS are gunna beah in POWAH faw FAWTY YEAHS!"
Obama easily beating Romney in 2012 only entrenched this notion.
Republican gains in the House in 2010/12/14, hey just minor setbacks, soon to be corrected!
The arrogant triumphalism on the part of the Progressives was insufferable in 2008 and by 2012 it was even worse.
Republicans had a dying party, I was told. Democratic Presidents & an activist judiciary would keep that GOP house in line until 'common sense' prevailed.
This is why 2 years later, Progressives are still throwing tantrums and refusing to accept what happened.
They truly believed what they were told, that it was all over and they had won.
You're watching people go through an existential crisis.
Control of the Executive branch and control of the Judicial branch were key essentials to enacting and then enforcing a large part of the Progressive agenda for America.
And they'd won, you see. The redneck bitter clingers out there couldn't stop the coming transformation.

18) When you think you\u2019re in a liberal paradise and you wake up to an army of conservatives running the government, its very easy for them to think \u201cSuddenly, Nazis... EVERYWHERE.\u201d They\u2019ve fooled themselves into thinking conservatives had died out, that there were hardly any left

THIS.
Russia hasn't been a willing partner in this treaty for almost 3 decades. We should have ended the pretense long ago.
Naturally, Rand Paul is telling anyone who will listen to him that Trump is making a HUGE MISTAKE here.
Rand is just like his dad, Ron. 100% isolationist.
They've never grasped that 100% isolationist is not 'America First' when you examine it. It really means 'America Alone'.
The consistent grousing of pursuing military alliances with allies - like Trump is doing now with Saudi Arabia.
So of course Rand has also spent the last 2 days loudly calling for Trump to kill the arms deal with Saudi Arabia and end our alliance with them.
What Obama was engineering with his foreign policy was de facto isolationism: pull all the troops out of the ME, abandon the region to Iranian control as a client state of Russia.
Obama wasn't building an alliance with Iran; he was facilitating abandoning the ME to Iran.
Obama wouldn't even leave behind a token security force, so of course what happened was the rise of ISIS. He also pumped billions of dollars into the Iranian coffers, which the Mullah's used to fund destabilizing activity [wars/terrorism] & criminal enterprises all over the globe

Arms control agreements are good when you have willing partners. Lightens the load on our military.

Russia hasnt been a willing partner in years. There will be gnashing of teeth from people who do arms control advocacy full time, but this is right movehttps://t.co/WmQE43ERCB

Schumer droning on about Kavanaugh's 'temperment'.
Well screw you, Schumer. You and your goon of a party smeared an innocent man as a sexual predator, delayed his being able to defend himself for 10 days, then tried to gaslight the entire country "LOOK LOOK HOW ANGRY HE IS!"
Understand what you are about to see here: A Progressive Democrat strategy lasting over 40 years to avoid having to convince voters to go along with their anti-American agenda thru bypassing Congress & using activist judges to implement their goals is about to DIE.
https://t.co/1fdjlG3RNj
Remember this day. Remember the last 2 weeks, when the Democratic Party dropped it's mask and showed you it's true, awful face, the face of totalitarian dictators who would strip due process & presumption of innocence from their political adversaries.
The unhinged insane political Left just helped put a Justice on the Supreme Court who understands now PERSONALLY better than any other justice just how vital due process & presumption of innocence are to America's constitutional system.

I like this heuristic, and have a few which are similar in intent to it:
Hiring efficiency:
How long does it take, measured from initial expression of interest through offer of employment signed, for a typical candidate cold inbounding to the company?
What is the *theoretical minimum* for *any* candidate?
How long does it take, as a developer newly hired at the company:
* To get a fully credentialed machine issued to you
* To get a fully functional development environment on that machine which could push code to production immediately
* To solo ship one material quanta of work
How long does it take, from first idea floated to "It's on the Internet", to create a piece of marketing collateral.
(For bonus points: break down by ambitiousness / form factor.)
How many people have to say yes to do something which is clearly worth doing which costs $5,000 / $15,000 / $250,000 and has never been done before.
Here's how I'd measure the health of any tech company:

How long, as measured from the inception of idea to the modified software arriving in the user's hands, does it take to roll out a *1 word copy change* in your primary product?
