The Mueller investigation found a Justice Department guideline that prohibits the federal indictment of a sitting president, but resulted in charges against 34 individuals and 3 companies, 8 guilty pleas, and a conviction at trial. This prohibitory guideline kinda makes sense in theory since it'd put us in a position where we'd have to rely on the executive branch to police itself (both president's office and the DoJ are that branch), but the real check on the presidency, impeachment, has been corrupted to uselessness by partisanship. In practice all the branches — even the court system — have divided among party lines.
They were found having attempted to cover up the extent the Putin regime had helped them steal the 2016 win, and to have “welcomed” and “expected to benefit” from that help.
