Two real news events to follow.
#releasethememo looks like an enormous issue has been uncovered, and the longer it is held back, the worse the speculation and rumour mongering will be. (For those of you who have not been following, a 4 page classified memo has been released and seen by members of the Congress which outlines testimony from Fusion GPS founder Glenn Simpson showing how the FISA warrant process was subverted top allow surveillance of the Republican nominee). This abuse of power will obviously reach back and identify people by name and position, and the Democrat party is already trying to discredit it.

Second event is the government shutdown. This could be interesting because it was fairly clear from the beginning the Democrats were not going to negotiate in good faith (since the "asks" from the President included the Wall, immigration and security reforms). What American media and the chattering classes still don't seem to get is President Trump has dealt with bad faith negotiations for decades when in the real estate business. It will be interesting to see what the President's negotiation fail and BATNA plans are as they get rolled out (no doubt to outrage and disbelief that the President is going to do something using his executive powers).
Lots of beer and popcorn being stockpiled here.
