Since the Justice Department announced that Robert Mueller found no criminal conspiracy between the Trump campaign and Russia, President Donald Trump has urged Americans to toss the whole Russia investigation aside as a waste of time.

It's true the special counsel didn't find an agreement between Trump's campaign and the Russian government to influence the 2016 election, and he decided not to make a call on whether the president obstructed justice. But Mueller did find other crimes — including some committed by people close to the president — and he exposed a coordinated assault on American democracy aimed at helping Trump win.

Over a 22-month investigation, the special counsel's team put together perhaps the most definitive story of the Trump campaign and Russia.

As Attorney General William Barr decides how much the public will get to see of Mueller's confidential report, here's a guide to what the special counsel has revealed so far.

RUSSIA TRIED TO HELP TRUMP
The Kremlin directed a large-scale effort to help Trump during the 2016 election.

According to U.S. intelligence agencies and lengthy indictments brought by Mueller's team, Russian President Vladimir Putin ordered a multipart influence campaign aimed at hurting Democrat Hillary Clinton's candidacy, undermining American democracy and helping Trump get elected.

That effort included the hacking of the Democratic National Committee, Clinton's campaign and other Democratic groups. Russian intelligence officers then coordinated the release of stolen emails and internal documents using the false online personas Guccifer 2.0 and DCLeaks, and later the anti-secrecy group WikiLeaks.
