The obstruction piece is just one part of the investigation.It's not the end. It's the first quarter and lays the groundwork.
Yep. Q1 indeed.

The plan, still in its early stages of development, will instruct key Trump allies to question Rosenstein's impartiality as the top Department of Justice (DOJ) official overseeing special counsel Robert Mueller's probe, CNN reported Thursday.
The White House wants allies of the president to emphasize Rosenstein's status as a witness to Trump's firing of former FBI Director James Comey, according to the report.
The No. 2 DOJ official wrote the memo justifying the dismissal of Comey that centered on his handling of the probe into Hillary Clinton's use of a private email server while serving as secretary of State.
The White House plan includes pushing allies to portray Comey and Rosenstein as close colleagues, suggesting the top DOJ official wanted revenge on Trump for ousting "one of his best friends," a source told CNN. However, one source told the network that the two are not friends.
lol Trump can seemingly stay focused and produce plans to smear his rival-of-the-moment like a high school kid, but can't stay focused on matters of foreign policy or trade like a grown up. tool

Everyone is missing what may be the key to start the Russian money laundering investigation - Cohen's 200+ NYC taxi medallions. It seems like almost all of his were purchased well in advance of the price cratering due to Uber. At their peak, medallions often sold for over $1M each.
It was a great place to launder large amounts of money. Cohen had tons of ties to Russia and Ukraine. Even if he only paid an average of $750K for each, his "investors" put up $150M. They are now worth 1/3 of that amount.
The big question here may be - Who is Cohen more afraid of -the DOJ and BY State AG or his Russian partners?
Oh, shit. Call the Special Counsel's office.
