Except it didn't:

"Special counsel Robert Mueller did not find evidence that President Trump's campaign conspired with Russia to influence the 2016 election, according to a summary of findings submitted to Congress"

It couldn't find anything on collusion, but the question of obstruction is still open... and what exactly were they obstructing investigators from finding? Evidence of collusion maybe? We won't know because they obstructed the investigation.

Let's not remove the end of that quote so quickly:

"Special counsel Robert Mueller did not find evidence that President Trump's campaign conspired with Russia to influence the 2016 election, according to a summary of findings submitted to Congress by Attorney General William Barr."

I think Attorney General William Barr did not correctly summarize the findings of the Mueller report, and was acting to drive an incorrect narrative.

Given that, I think it's entirely appropriate to also look at the Republican-controlled Senate report that the OP linked, which says it did.

Wrong, it said it did not find collision.

Here's the summary from the lead on the US Senate Special Committee on Intelligence:

https://www.rubio.senate.gov/public/index.cfm/press-releases...

“We can say, without any hesitation, that the Committee found absolutely no evidence that then-candidate Donald Trump or his campaign colluded with the Russian government to meddle in the 2016 election."

Rubio says this, but that doesn’t comport with the contents of the report. Trump’s Campaign manager giving internal campaign data, to a man who the Senate Intel Committee characterizes as a “Russian intel Agent”. and then lying about it to the American people and the FBI is clearly evidence of collusion.

For Rubio to make this statement, he needs to explain this finding of his committee.

If you read my link it was not referring to the Mueller investigation.

In August, of this year, the US Senate Special Committee on Intelligence concluded its investigation and found that collusion occurred with Russian nationals, and possibly Russian intelligence. _Separately_ from Mueller.
