They should go to court right now and demand the full report. We don't want any watered down Barr Report. We want total transparency and we have a mandate from the American people( 84%) approval. We will be disappointed with the report we get if Barr starts removing damaging evidence on Trump and the White House gets claim to executive privileges.

(273 posts)Did he do so to let Congress decide or did he hand it off to Barr which is totally unfair considering his audition for his job.

(1,289 posts)That's our only chance, and he did uphold Obamacare and has been willing to criticize Trump. Hopefully, Clarence Thomas won't retire before 2021 and a Democratic President will get to appoint his replacement.

(32,634 posts)Any personal info that identifies innocent individuals or otherwise non-suspects must be redacted before they can release the report. Don't forget that Mueller interviewed tons of people who hadn't been indicted or subpoenaed, and they gave important background info.
Barr should have until next Tuesday to complete his redaction, then we can throw the book at him.

(895 posts)Can he even claim that about events that happened prior to him being sworn in? I wouldn't think so. Maybe he can for his secret meetings with his idol Putin, but he's not going to be able to use it as a blanket excuse.

(42,770 posts)Is derogatory. Supreme Court determined that re Nixon tapes.
Of course not saying he wouldn't try. Barr's probably already in a trump vise.

(90,335 posts)... when it comes to the release including the conditions.
I understand the Clinton effect out of the report but Mueller's outfit wasn't a bunch of political hacks writing the report like Comey it was chosen to be apolitical.
ut oh
(895 posts)and sneak on over to the WH late at night....
Laura PourMeADrink
(42,770 posts)Said all along that with GOP moles and Whitaker already told trump the juicy parts. That's why trump trashed Mueller to bitter end. Because there is bad stuff.

We saw on Sunday a four-page summary of a 700-page report, the Fox analyst said. The 700-page report is a summary of two million pages of documents, of raw evidence.

You're welcome.

(17,912 posts)under oath, before Congress to explain what was found and to insure what's provide is the real report. I trust none of these jack asses.

(32,640 posts)we lose any leverage to get the full report.
AdamGG
(1,289 posts)maybe that could be a pretext for calling Mueller to testify about it. It's going to be very disappointing if nothing comes forward to refute Trump's exoneration bullshit.

(15,286 posts)and exercise oversight of DoJ now. All Nadler has to do is let Barr know there will be no DoJ appropriations bill until the full, unredacted Mueller report is turned over to Congress.
