That's what I was asking yesterday. My answer so far: not a thing as far as
I can tell. Looked at some analyses last night and the fact that Woodward

actually not knowing she was covert may be part of the problem. Beyond
that... I can't see that it changes much. It opens the door to the
possibility that there are further players, but the special prosecutor as
much as said that already.
