These timelines examine several scandals, and a rudimentary understanding of process within a bureaucratic organization can be helpful. The impression is often created that a scandal investigation, or what the public knows of it, are guided by day-to-day leaks and public pressure. A large bureaucracy, such as the DOJ or Pentagon, are guided by a commitment to preserve institutional stability. For this they have a multitude of contingency plans to deal with emergencies or scandals. Like a business, they set forth quarterly guidelines for the institution with policy prescriptions that change every 90 days on how to deal with anticipated goals, events, and objectives they reasonablely consider the institution may encounter. I'll set forth three illustrations below, but there are many more that become apparent when reviewing these eight-plus years of Obamunism and its hangover.

The first quarter of this year were marked by institutional objectives for transition, (1) Jan 1 - Mar 31 Obama leaving office and Trump taking over; (2) Apr 1 - Jun 30 Trump filling appointments and staff positions. By July 1, Trump is supposed to have enough of his people in place to begin writing the institutional objectives for coming quarters. This, technically speaking, would be when Trump has taken full charge of the government and the Trump administration begins.
