Remember the "queen for a day" claim with Gates to Mueller?

That Gates has flipped?
Remember that?

My head is spinning a bit now.

1. Join the club.

When I heard the news today I said "WHAT?????". And this is likely to continue into 2019! I don't know if I will be able to maintain my sanity.

2. There are a number of possibilities. I heard on TV tonight that he didn't have enough

to offer Mueller.

So maybe Gates did his proffer, and Mueller said, no thanks. (Which Mueller can do. He can't use Gates's statement against him, but he can use it as the basis for doing further digging.)

Or maybe Gates did his proffer, and Mueller caught him in a lie and said: the deal's off.

And if Gates was caught in a lie, and still wants a plea deal, then he's looking at a longer sentence.

3. Good scenario picture

Thanks

5. Tonight Rachel speculated that gates may not have had enough to get him a deal

4. let em swing in the wind see what happens

I bet the S.C. said 'thanks but no thanks' to whatever info Gates was trying to bargain with they may be getting full of low hanging fruit and will see what Gates does over next few weeks as they continue the investigation of the Russian Mob/Trump Admin.

Reminds me of a question "who are all the S.C. prosecuting attorneys who are going to take up all these likely upcoming court trials the media is talking about?" I understand Mueller and his team are investigating but who is doing the actual prosecution?
