11. Yep, I agree. Some people could lose their jobs if still around, that's about it

There could also be new rules banning this practice as well.

Some people getting fired (not Barr, however, obviously) and new rules don't get me all that excited in terms of 'accountability', however.

I'm not saying this outcome would be 'a failure', to be clear. Bottom-line, I don't think there are laws against what happened, ergo penalty possibilities are limited.

I said this same thing all along about the Mueller investigation, allow me to mention.

He would've had to find solid evidence that Trump's people in some way instigated/paid for/planned the break in of the DNC computers, and/or that Trump's people took actual physical possession (or maybe electronic possession, possibly) of the stolen materials. Nothing else being discussed was an actual crime, esp. given the DoJ's 'rules' about POTUS being above the law other than impeachment.
