With regard to what is "news": Fitz Grand Jury isn't like ANYTHING ELSE
Advertisements [?]
in DC. Here's why:

Fitz's office and the GJ are actually obeying the laws making the proceedings secret. That means that the ONLY people who REALLY know what is going on AREN'T TALKING. There's no inside info, no knowledgeable leaks, no background briefings, NOTHING from the inside.

The people who ARE talking are those who extrapolating from clues or have a personal agenda, eg, defense attorneys trying to spin and the media who are trying to read tea leaves.

So really, anything you hear about what Fitz is doing or the grand jury is doing must be discounted as coming, directly or indirectly, from someone who doesn't know or has an incentive to lie.

All you know is that you aren't getting the information from someone who really knows what's going on. All THOSE people aren't talking.

So relax, be skeptical, and wait for it.
