From Berlioz to Bolton

A short while ago, Rachel Maddow showed -- not for the first time -- old NBC video of the Watergate hearings, specifically the title sequence. Rachel seemed very impressed by members of her audience who recognized the music: The fourth movement ("March to the scaffold") from the Symphonie Fantastique, by Hector Berlioz.

Oh, come now. Naming that tune is no great feat. Every classical music aficionado knows this piece very well. The Symphonie Fantastique, composed in 1830, is one of those works that -- like Beethoven's Ninth and Le Sacre du Printemps -- always seems new.

You know what would be a really impressive trick? Naming the conductor of the specific performance used by NBC back in 1973. I thought I recognized it as the '67 recording that Seiji Ozawa did for Deutsche Grammophone -- the record that introduced me to Berlioz -- but I'm not sure. It's definitely not the recording Stokowski did on Phase 4. (You know: The one with the really deep bells in the last movement. I love those bells.) Frankly, it sounds like the famous Colin Davis version released by Phillips in '74 -- but that one came out after the hearings started.

So...I'm stumped.

You know what also has me stumped? Mick Mulvaney.

Do you have a workable "Theory of Mulvaney"? I don't. I have no idea why he has done the things he has recently done. Is it true that he considers himself "un-sackable" because he knows too much about Trump's dirty laundry? Why did he try to attach himself to that Bolton suit?

For that matter, why does the Bolton suit even exist? I mean, John Bolton is a private citizen: He can testify to Congress if he wants to.

I've read a couple dozen stories about the Mulvaney/Bolton mystery and nobody has a proper answer.

Elsewhere: We now know from the Roger Stone trial that Stone did indeed talk about Wikileaks with Trump. In his written responses to Mueller, Trump said that he did not have any such conversation -- but he covered his ass by using the famous weasel words "I do not recall." (I believe Nixon is on record as counseling his comrades to say that phrase.)

And that's why Trump provided written responses, heavily lawyered. Imagine if Mueller had interviewed him directly...!

Obviously, Trump -- who claims to have one of the world's great memories -- lied. Obviously, he damn well would have remembered a thing like that.

Here's the thing: Impeachment is not a court of law. The charges against Andrew Johnson included issues that went well beyond actual legal infractions. Weasel words be damned: The House can impeach Trump for lying to Mueller.

On the Chris Hayes show earlier this evening, Hayes seemed genuinely mystified by Stone's motive for lying about Randy Credico. I wonder what Hayes would think about my "Enigma" theory?

This tweet from Marcy may also speak to my little theory.
