It took 22 months for special counsel Robert Mueller to deliver his definitive report to the Department of Justice. Less than 48 hours later, Attorney General William Barr is in with his verdict: neither President Trump nor anyone on his campaign colluded or conspired with the Russian government in their multiple attempts to illicitly interfere with the 2016 U.S. presidential election.

In the course of his investigation, Mueller issued over 2,800 subpoenas, interviewed around 500 witnesses, made 13 requests from foreign governments for evidence, and executed almost 500 search warrants. Despite nearly two years of sustained hysteria across cable news and print media, Mueller ran a watertight operation, devoid of the leaks that have plagued the Trump administration itself.
