Russia probe has cost taxpayers nearly $17 million since Mueller's appointment
About $10 million was spent between October and March, the document states. That includes $4.5 million spent by Mueller’s team and another $5.5 million spent by the Justice Department on other expenditures attributable to the investigations.
“The department will continue to dedicate and leverage resources to maintain strong program and financial management controls,” the DOJ said in the report. “Management takes its program and financial accountability seriously and is dedicated to ensuring that funds are used in a responsible and transparent manner.”
Special counsel expenses between Oct. 1 and March 31
Personnel compensation and benefits -- $2,738,131
Travel -- $532,340
Transportation of things - $1,345
Rent, communications and utilities - $886,403
Contractual services - $264,114
Supplies and materials - $29,694
Acquisition of equipment - $54,597
TOTAL - $ 4,506,624
Does not include the $5.5 million spent by the Justice Department on other expenses related to the Russia probe during this time.
Mueller was appointed special counsel in May 2017 by Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein. Previously, the Justice Department said that during the May-September 2017 period, the investigation cost nearly $7 million.
That sum included $3.2 million in direct Special Counsel expenses and $3.5 million for other DOJ expenses, covering costs like agents working on raids or interviews and other government contractors.
The spending report said these expenses would “have incurred for the investigations irrespective of the existence” of Mueller’s probe.
Earlier this month, President Trump complained on Twitter about the money being spent on the “witch hunt.”
“At what point does this soon to be $20,000,000 Witch Hunt,” Trump asked in one tweet.
