ex-president before, I prefer to assume Garland is spending this time getting his ducks in a very fine row.

If an investigation is going on it hasn't yet reached to point of interviews, which are very hard to keep secret. That means at best there's a glacially slow investigation going on. At worst, no investigation at all.
