The special counsel witch-hunt has cost taxpayers millions. According to the Washington Free Beacon, "The special counsel investigation into the 2016 election has cost taxpayers over $25 million and counting.”
Only $3,906,000 was used on the investigation itself. Mueller's office released the cost from April 1, 2018, to September 30, 2018. In those five months alone, the investigation cost taxpayers $8.4 million. "The statement of expenditures reveals Mueller and his team of lawyers cost over $4.5 million for salaries and rent, and an additional $3.9 million in resources from the Department of Justice," The report reads. This includes an additional $580,098 for travel, $2.8 million in compensation and benefits, $942,787 for utilities and rent, and $310,732 on contractual services. What shocks many, is that only $3,906,000 was used on the Russia investigation. Trump commented on the costs back in May, writing, "At what point does this soon to be $20,000,000 Witch Hunt, composed of 13 Angry and Heavily Conflicted Democrats and two people who have worked for Obama for 8 years, STOP! They have found no Collusion with Russia, No Obstruction, but they aren’t looking at the corruption."
