First of all, you don't know how much of the report will be blacked out. Why don't you just wait another few hours and find out?
Second - and I can't believe I even have to explain this -- there are parts of the report that have to be blacked out so as to not give away sources, intelligence gathering methods, etc.
Or do you think that John Q Public (and our enemies) have the right to know all of this?
Why send out a PUBLIC report that was selectively redacted before Congress has the opportunity to view the report w/o information redacted that Congress is legally entitled to view???
We have waited this long—I don’t know why there was such a rush...
The Public—I understand why some parts might need to be redacted
But Congress has access to information that is definitely much more select than the American public—
Or Barr for that matter
So this is all hype —- part of the dog-and-pony show that Trump trots out when he is making like a street magician w/3 card monte games...
On the news this morning one specification was "information about anyone not criminally charged", so it's not just classified information.
So guess what that means? He's going to redact anything that mentions Trump directly, as if he was never involved in the investigation at all. If you think "Dems" and "the left" are going to stop talking about this because of that, you're nuts. It's simply another "President Troll" maneuver to throw meat to the base and anger the opposition.
Actually it is just a big hot mess of obstruction of justice...committed by Barr and Trump in collusion to deceive Congress and the American people—and the world...
For starters Grand Jury information is secret by law, it would require a court order for Barr to release it. Even if he was the most anti Trump person on the planet he would not be able to release it. Mueller used the Grand Jury extensively.
Why take the time to logically explain how things work when many people already think that Barr is covering things up for Trump.
So much for the 2 year multi mullion dollar investigation which left no stone unturned and cleared Trump!
Conservatives are having great fun with this. Watching liberals flinch and flop like a fish on a boat deck brings such a feeling of contentment and humor. And to think this will be going on for the next 6 years is priceless.
Mueller report out today but it will be so heavily redacted it will be rendered meaningless and just serve to make people wonder whats behind the redactions. So whats the point of redacting any part of this report?
In addition, the privacy of the people not indicted of any crimes must be protected. Please refer to the federal law.
But Congress has access to information that is definitely much more select than the American public—
Nor sure if it's been offered but Pelosi has already rejected the idea of it being viewed in classified setting. Anyone leaking information would be subject to significant criminal charges.
The dems won't find nothing. They'll find a few molehills and spend the next year and a half making frenzied rants about what mighty mountains they are.
