When has a smaller crime ever led to a bigger crime in Washington?

They need to get back to investigating real crimes, like hotel burglaries.

When it comes to the claims of the Trumpettes, the actual facts so very often manage to derail them:

On another front, indications are strong George Papadopoulos, former Foreign Policy Adviser to Trump, may have been wearing a wire or aiding in the recording of transactions between himself and other actors in the Trump circle:

George Papadopoulos could very well be a key to getting to the actual responsible parties:

You never looked cuter, Rockstar...

Meanwhile, in the serious world, there may be an indication more is on the way:

Other Cases

The Mueller team has chosen to base its work out of the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, impaneling a grand jury there and filing its charges with the court. Manafort and Gates appeared at the courthouse Monday to enter not-guilty pleas, and Papadopoulos pleaded guilty there Oct. 5.

An investigative reporter for USA Today, looking through the court's docket in the wake of the Mueller news, noticed four more sealed cases whose case numbers fall between those involving Papadopoulos and Manafort.

Moreover, the indictment naming Manafort and Gates is labeled "Indictment (B)" – suggesting to some that there's an "Indictment (A)" yet to be released.

There's no telling what's inside any of those sealed case files – they could be completely unrelated to the Mueller investigation – but the sequence has some speculating they may be part of the probe and that more indictments or guilty pleas will be coming.
