People did die, but your point was that the length of the Mueller investigation is "ridiculous". That article shows that other investigations, many of which did not involve deaths, ran for 2-3 years.
It's also a little early to call it a "nothing burger", isn't it? Given what has come out of the investigation so far, a lot of questions have been raised. Some of the things I'm most interested in:
- Flynn's phone call referring to Russian response to Obama's ejection of Russian diplomats
- Trump Tower meeting in which key campaign staff discussed "adoptions", and the relationship between that meeting and the Magnitsky Act
These points aren't made up. The note about discussing adoptions came from the Trump campaign itself. To call this nothing is to ignore the words of the Trump team itself.
