I think OSC will have to move up their timeline exponentially now

As soon as Rosenstein is fired, probably hours away, OSC should be bombs away with the indictments and indict DJT while they’re at it.

We know there are likely indictments for:
Ivanka Trump
Eric Prince
Jared Kushner
Roger Stone
Don Jr.
Julian Assange
Steve Bannon
Hope Hicks
Brad Parscale

Speaking indictments would do well to quash momentum from the Rosenstein saga.

Time to release it all before DJT moves to bury him his weekend.

The final showdown between OSC and WH has arrived. Time for victory, complete and total!

The Justice Department is not going to change their timeline for anything. They are being ultra deliberate, and will proceed as they've done since the beginning.

If Drumpf is going to take action, the chips will fall where they do. But I doubt that indictments are going to be issued just because of these circumstances.

most recently making a Manafort pardon extremely difficult, scaring Cohen and Manafort very effectively, etc.

Given Mueller history, awareness traitortrump will try with all trump can muster to fire Meuller for a very long time, - Mueller has certainly planned something, probably very effectively. [State AGs, Sealed indictments, anyone?]

They are ready for this. They have been ready for everything that has transpired so far. Is is POSSIBLE that they could be caught flat footed if this scenario plays out? No!

and the courts that control them. Indictments are issued only when the grand juries have heard all the witnesses and evidence.

it has to be completed before the GJ can issue an indictment. A prosecutor isn't going to omit some witnesses or hurry them through their testimony to meet some kind of deadline, and the GJ needs time to deliberate. These are complicated cases that shouldn't be rushed.
