Barr: We'll release the Mueller report in a week but first we gotta color code it and redact the bad stuff

Trump's handpicked Attorney General Bill Barr says the report prepared by Special Counsel Robert Mueller's office will be ready for public release within about a week.

Barr also said: “I do not intend” to provide “the full, unredacted report” to Congress — even as House Judiciary has threatened to subpoena for it.
The Department of Justice is working with the office of the Special Counsel to color code its contents, redact, and add explanations for the basis behind each redaction.
Yes, that's right.
They're gonna color code it.

AG Barr says the Mueller report will be ready for release within a week. DOJ is working with the special counsel's office and DOJ will color code the report and add explanations for the basis of each redaction of the report.

Pretty big red flag that Barr, after discussing the report extensively, refuses to say whether he has briefed the WH on it.

Hearing so far also a good reminder that Barr, the nation's chief law enforcement officer, is not an honest broker in fight over Mueller report. He's there instead to limit the damage to Trump as best he can and to otherwise delay and obfuscate.
