But Barr was something else to reckon with, and Mueller hastily moved to close shop. He delivered his final 448-page report on March 22, 2019. Barr two days later released a summary of the report’s principal conclusions, and less than a month after that released a largely unredacted version of the report to the public. Volume I—on “collusion”—offered complete and total vindication for the Trump team, much to the haters’ mortification. As with his indictments, the Mueller report sought to play up every tie, every meeting, every conversation between Trump folks and Russians. And yet the report had to acknowledge it could find no prosecutable evidence that the Trump campaign had coordinated in Russia’s efforts to undermine the election.
