Technically.  The objective of the Meuller investigation was to produce actionable impeachable offenses against Trump. Obviously this was a failure. But that was the plan. 

Well, if we are being techincal here... they actually impeached trump so not a failure by your standards. What you meant to say was the Senate failed to convict. Thank for playing constitutional law with your host Didbaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

No s***. 

Republicans voting to impeach Trump would have been like "moonies" voting to convict Sun Myong Moon.  

No surprise there.

Some snippets of the hearing today.

Also from The Hill: “President Trump is a 76-year-old man, he is not an impressionable child. Just like everyone else in our country, he is responsible for his own actions and his own choices. As our investigation has shown, Donald Trump had access to more detailed and specific information showing that the election was not actually stolen than almost any other American. And he was told this over and over again. No rational or sane man in his position could disregard that information and reach the opposite conclusion. And Donald Trump cannot escape responsibility by being willfully blind,” she added.

Also, this is part of commentary about the Jan. 6th hearings:

 

He said the quiet part out loud.

Yesterday there was another hearing. You can see the summary here.

Some of the most startling quotes:

Pence, who had journeyed to the Capitol to certify the election results, had to be hustled to safety by his security detail, with insurrectionists sometimes only feet away.

An anonymous former White House security official, apparently testifying with his voice distorted to conceal his identity, said that Pence’s Secret Service detail were in fear of their lives.

This person said that there were “a lot of very personal calls over the radio, so it was disturbing. I don’t like talking about it, but there were calls to say goodbye to family members.”

The hearing also played excerpts from radio conversations among the agents, expressing near panic about Pence’s plight, and their own.

“If we lose any more time, we may … lose the ability to leave,” one agent was heard to say. “So if we’re going to leave, we need to do it now.”

The visceral force of the radio transmissions cuts hard against continuing efforts by Trump loyalists and their media allies to minimize what happened on Jan. 6.
