Is the Russia investigation closed and settled? Did he give Democrats fuel for impeachment?

No to impeachment from what little has been shown in UK - other news dominatingYes to potential prosecution for obstruction after he leaves office in 2025.
Still the other activity in New York State which seems to have disappeared from the news
Is Mueller still relevant? An investigation is closed, if it didn't produce a smoking gun how can interpretations
Mueller seemingly did not even understand what his study showed, and I wonder whether he really wrote it, bearing in mind he seemed unsure at times of what was in it, and most importantly, what it meant. From what I can make out, his whole testimony was either parroting what was in the report, or trying to evade the issue.
A number of Democrats seem to think it was a victory for them because he suggested the obstruction issue is something they need to address, not the Justice Department. Problem is, the Dems needed his testimony to be a bombshell revelation for Independents, and it wasn't. That reason alone makes it a failure for them, because if they ever get to the point of bringing serious impeachment charges, independents aren't going to agree with them.
