“Redaction” didn’t always mean obscuring sensitive text. The word has a long history and so does the practice it describes.

The public release of special counsel Robert Mueller’s report in redacted form—with small and large blocked-out sections across its more than 400 pages—has many people wondering what “redacted” actually means.

When Attorney General William Barr first announced the release plan last month, Merriam-Webster saw a 40-fold spike in lookups to its online dictionary for the words “redact” and “redacted.” This morning that spiked again—to more than 90-fold.

Ongoing court cases put crimp in Barr's Mueller redaction plansFederal prosecutors overseeing Roger Stone's case say redacted Mueller report being released tomorrow will redact sections related to Stone’s case, in response to a court order from the judge that no side should make prejudicial comments before trial. And that will be the portion that Schiff and Swallwell will claim hold the proof of collusion. 🙄 Its simple MSNBC, Mueller said NO NEW indictments. If anything in the memo that Attorney General Barr released was erroneous, dont you think that Mueller or Rosenstein would have said something. Give it up, your just embarrassing yourself. It sadly pathetic. If you want in dept conversation with reallondon PeoplesVote and the environment I can arrange it come to the real news

Mueller? MUELLER? Barr just essentially said: 1. It doesn’t matter that Trump may have done something wrong. 2. There’s nothing you can do about any of this. 3. We own any and all of the mechanisms that could do something about this. 4. Kiss the rule of law goodbye. 4. Have a nice day.
