Robert Mueller is done.

After a 22-month investigation, charges against 37 defendants, seven guilty pleas and one conviction at trial, the Justice Department announced Friday that the special counsel's office has wrapped up its probe into Russian election interference, possible Trump campaign collusion with Moscow and obstruction of justice.

The Justice Department informed Congress in a brief letter that Mueller has submitted a confidential report to Attorney General William Barr detailing the decisions his team made to prosecute or not prosecute those who were investigated.

Barr said he may provide Congress with "the special counsel's principal conclusions as soon as this weekend."

A Justice Department official described the report as "comprehensive."

White House press secretary Sarah Sanders said the White House has not seen Mueller's findings.

"The next steps are up to Attorney General Barr, and we look forward to the process taking its course. The White House has not received or been briefed on the Special Counsel's report," Sanders said in a statement.

The completion of the special counsel's investigation marks the end of one of the most dramatic chapters in Donald Trump's presidency, one that led to numerous criminal charges against and guilty pleas by some of his closest associates. The conclusion of the investigation, however, opens a new chapter into the fallout from the report and a potentially fraught political battle over the extent to which its contents are made public.

It's too soon to say what Mueller's report will ultimately mean for the President, but surviving the investigation without being subpoenaed for a sit down interview with the special counsel's team is a significant victory for Trump and his legal team.

It's also not clear what Mueller uncovered about Trump's involvement or advance knowledge, if any, of WikiLeaks release of damaging information about Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign. The special counsel's findings on the question of obstruction of justice are also unknown, but Trump's allies will likely argue anything short of a criminal indictment proves the President did nothing wrong.

The fight to make Mueller's report public could be fierce and possibly spark a court battle between Congress and the executive branch. Key House Democrats have said that the full report that Mueller submitted to Barr should be made public, and they intend to subpoena for the document -- and Mueller's underlying evidence -- if it is not handed over to Congress. White House lawyers, meanwhile, expect to have an opportunity to review whatever Barr intends to submit to Congress and the public.

Mueller did not speak publicly during his nearly two-year investigation into Trump and his team. Instead, his prosecutors largely used indictments and court filings to illustrate their sweeping investigation. To announce charges against Russian operatives on two separate occasions in 2018, Mueller relied on Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, who appointed Mueller in 2017 and oversaw much of his work.

--
Robert Mueller, who was appointed on May 17, 2017 has been on the job for 675 days.

Since then:
Mueller has brought criminal charges against 34 people and 3 companies. Five people have been sentenced to prison so far.

Those charged include six Trump associates (Paul Manafort, Rick Gates, Michael Flynn, Michael Cohen, Roger Stone and George Papadopoulos).

It also includes 26 Russians and 3 Russian companies.

Trump has tweeted “witch hunt” about the Russia investigation more than 170 times.
--

-Submitted to AG Barr for review
-Barr to advise conclusions as soon as this weekend.
-Dems call for public release, will subpoena if necessary.
-No new indictments to be made.
-Mueller and a small contingent staff will remain in place close up the office for the time being.
-The right will start collecting liberal tears (well, the memes will anyway).
-Do note that the House and SDNY (Southern District of New York) court still have investigations on-going against Trump.

All said and done, Trump will finish his 1st term as predicted and no impeachment will succeed.
