"The prosecutor handpicked by Attorney General William P. Barr to scrutinize how U.S. agencies investigated President Trump’s 2016 campaign said he could not offer evidence to the Justice Department’s inspector general to support the suspicions of some conservatives that the case was a setup by American intelligence, people familiar with the matter said.
...
(and) Durham informed Horowitz’s office that his investigation had not produced any evidence that might contradict the inspector general’s findings on that point.
...
Horowitz’s draft report concludes that political bias did not taint how top FBI officials running the investigation handled the case, people familiar with the matter said. But it details troubling misconduct that Trump and his allies are likely to emphasize as they criticize the bureau. "

...indeed, we'll see how the AG spins it.

But it details troubling misconduct that Trump and his allies are likely to emphasize as they criticize the bureau.

They will focus on that.

“The investigations will continue until we get the answers that we know are there!”, is a tried-and-true dictator move, gets the “corrupt” people out and the good, honest, patriotic people who are completely LOYAL to the President, go in!

Speaking of waiting to see, I'm still waiting to see all the names of the illegal voters who pushed Clinton over the top in the popular vote. I'm sure that will be along soon, just like the desired results from the investigation mentioned in the OP.

No it won't be along soon for various states refused to cooperate with the Federal Commission on this. Not saying they weren't right in doing so for a State right to tally their own results and report is just that....a state right. What did you expect Trump to do...federalize everything and take away their rights? If he did that would that have made you happy?

And it may be enough to convince Trump's base that Mueller's findings on Russian interference in the 2016 election are fraudulent and can be disregarded, which is all the administration ever wanted out of Durham's investigation anyway.
