My favorite part of the report, by the way, is when Durham suggests that Mueller's probe needed to be examined since it didn't prove collusion — and then whines that even though he himself didn't bring many charges that didn't mean everything was kosher.

Which was what Mueller said, too. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2023/05/15/durham-report-analysis/

@pbump He was a political appointee pursuing a transparently political investigation demanded by a sitting president and ordered by a hyper-partisan attorney general who was himself hired because he wrote a thesis asserting that GOP presidents, particularly the aforementioned sitting one, could do no wrong. He gave us what everyone expected: A stern lecture unsupported by any facts.
