How much does US Attorney John Durham know about the Russia investigation?

Bill Barr recently announced that he wanted him to stay on as Special Counsel in the continuing Russia investigation.

Is that a bad idea? Why?

Would he not be working under the new Attorney General?

How much does he know about Trump Administration involvement with Russia hacking into America's election system?

Just before the election in November, he let Barr know that there was nothing to be found in their "Obamagate" investigation. Trump never forgave either of them for that decision.

Wouldn't you like to pick his brain and find out what he knows? Or do you think he is too close to Trump and Barr?

I suspect there's many a partisan lawyer that finds the middle when appointed to a judgeship or a prosecutorial position. It is the way to survive and prosper. If they don't adhere to the law it is found out pretty quick. Law and politics mixes a lot easier in the Senate.

And sometimes they seem to be blowing all in one direction, and the fishing expedition turns out to be thorough, and then they land far from all the smoke.
