BRET STEPHENS: Conservatives should thank Mueller
Sunday, April 21, 2019 -- From the beginning of the investigation, conservatives have been invested in a counter-narrative that is as flawed as the collusion narrative. This has various elements, from President Donald Trump's repeated attempts to cast doubt on Russian interference, to the belief that the investigation had its genesis in Christopher Steele's salacious dossier, to the equally spurious idea that there can be no obstruction of justice without an underlying crime -- a point that ought to be obvious to anyone who supported impeaching Bill Clinton for lying under oath about a noncriminal act. Most absurd: The claim, repeated Thursday by Atty. Gen. William Barr, that the White House fully cooperated with the investigation.
