Attorney General William Barr said that special counsel Robert Mueller’s 22-month investigation produced "no evidence of any collusion" between the Trump campaign and Russia during a press conference Thursday held hours before the release of the special counsel report.
"After two years of investigation the special counsel did confirm Russian meddling in 2016 campaign but no evidence of any collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia," Barr said.
Barr’s categorical description puts to rest the suggestion by many of the president’s critics that, while Barr’s summary of the report made clear that Mueller could not prove criminal coordination beyond a reasonable doubt, his report would likely include evidence of wrongdoing.
