The Robert Mueller investigation which monopolized political discourse for two years\u00a0has finally concluded<\/a>, and his anxiously awaited report has been submitted to Attorney General William Barr. The results are in and the debate is over: those advancing the conspiracy theory that the Kremlin has infiltrated the highest levels of the US government were wrong, and those of us voicing skepticism of this were right.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The contents of the report are still secret, but CNN\u2019s Justice Department reporter Laura Jarrett has told us all we need to know,\u00a0tweeting<\/a>,\u201cSpecial Counsel Mueller is not recommending ANY further indictments am told.\u201d <\/strong><\/em>On top of that, William Barr\u00a0said in a letter<\/a>\u00a0to congressional leaders that there has been no obstruction of Mueller\u2019s investigation by Justice Department officials.<\/p>\n

So that\u2019s it, then.<\/strong><\/u> A completely unhindered investigation has failed to convict a single American of any kind of conspiracy with the Russian government, and no further indictments are coming. The political\/media class which sold rank-and-file Americans on the lie that the Mueller investigation was going to bring down this presidency were liars and frauds, and none of the goalpost-moving that I am sure is already beginning to happen will change that.<\/p>\n

\n

Say it again: Mueller has indicted *zero* Americans for conspiring with Russia to influence the 2016 election, which was central impetus for the Special Counsel in the first place. Anyone who denies this is an abject liar https:\/\/t.co\/gRQdr01ZCv<\/a><\/p>\n
