This is an Interesting Development
As soon as I heard that former FBI lawyer Kevin Clinesmith was going to plead guilty to falsifying evidence, I immediately thought that he was doing so as part of a bargain that included little or no jail time in return for truthful cooperation regarding the rest of the "coup" conspirators. That seems to be true, probably.
Here is what Ace and actual journalist Catherine Herridge have to say on the matter.
Who wants to bet against my prediction that these smug assholes involved in many very serious political crimes against the President of the United States aren't already planning to turn on each other in an effort to save their own cowardly and worthless skins?
UPDATE: John Hinderaker of Powerline blog is a little bit defeatist in his well worth reading comments on this development here. His comparison of the Democrat party to the mafia is funny but, alas, probably true. He lays out the facts, which I ignored in my enthusiasm, that the current prosecutors of Mr. Clinesmith cannot offer him enough of a deal to make him roll on others, who were probably little fish anyway. If he respects the Omerta, the Democrats will take care of him when he comes out of however many weeks he will be in prison, and he knows this.
