Be patient about this arrest, please.

CNN may not say things correctly. MSNBC might say things wrong. Until the FBI or some other agency issues an official statement will we know the exact status of this.

It's exciting, I know, but be cautious. We'll find out soon enough what exactly is going on.

Looks like Jeff Sessions is going to take credit for it. Anyhow, we'll find out what they know, etc. then, if not before.

6. I agree. The GOP and Trumpians are so cagey I will not rest easy until everything is out.

They are really shifty at making the news match their projections. They are capable of paying fools to take a hit for them and there are racist fools who would be willing to that.

Thanks to the FBI and all the others for their quick work in getting this far so fast. Thankful that no one has been harmed thus far.
