The Durham investigation: much ado about nothing

 Robert B Hubbell -  [Special Counsel John] Durham was appointed by the worst Attorney General in US history, Bill Barr, who expected Durham to exact vengeance on Trump's perceived enemies. Durham labored for four years to prove that Trump's investigators acted criminally—or at least wrongfully—in investigating allegations of Russian interference in the 2016 election.

Durham personally traveled across the globe to interview witnesses. On occasion, Durham was accompanied by Bill Barr. Durham’s investigation cost $6.5 million and lasted twice as long as the Mueller investigation... Durham prosecuted two cases arising from his investigation. Both trials ended in acquittals for the defendants. After a jury acquitted one of the defendants, a juror lectured Durham for wasting the jury’s time.

Well %6.5 million of our money isn't nothing but sounds like a boondoggle and four years of futile flailing and failing. The juror who lectured Durham is a hero for calling out this flagrant abuse of power!
