By Devlin Barrett Devlin Barrett Reporter focusing on national security and law enforcement Email Bio Follow April 15 at 11:55 AM The Justice Department expects to release on Thursday a redacted version of special counsel Robert S. Mueller III’s report on President Trump, his associates and Russia’s interference in the 2016 election, setting the stage for further battles in Congress over the politically explosive inquiry.
The report, which runs nearly 400 pages without exhibits, has been the subject of heated debate since Attorney General William P. Barr notified lawmakers last month that Mueller had completed his 22-month investigation. Barr’s letter also said the special counsel withheld judgment on whether Trump tried to obstruct justice during the investigation.
Barr and his deputy, Rod J. Rosenstein, examined the obstruction evidence laid out by Mueller’s team and concluded it did not rise to the level of obstruction of justice.
JohnOSullivan36 This is journalistic malpractice. The Mueller report is NOT being released. The A.G Trump obstructed Justice to appoint is releasing his redacted Report (more obstruction) on the President’s Obstruction.
*redacted report*
Good finally. Dems should start impeachments after the report
You mean what's left of the Report that has been redacted by the AG release expected Thursday.
IT IS NOT THE MUELLER REPORT, IT IS THE BARR REDACTED REPORT!!
That’s not giving the White House much time to read it to Trump.
BarrCoverUp
The faux fake Barr/ Trump version bet as worthless as a degree from Trump University.
Not the Mueller report. Barr's redacted version. Get it right.
Can we really trust Barr to release the proper report without being doctored up to suit his orange master?
IT'S BARR COVER UP RELEASE
The REDACTED BARR REPORT .
WAPO, it is NOT a release of the Mueller Report! It IS a release of the Redacted Mueller Report! As we will all soon experience. Please try to be more accurate. Thanks, a subscriber.
More like a demonstration of the 'redaction toolset'
You nailed it.
It's not the Mueller report. It's the Barr report. Don't do this again, for the love of pete.
You forgot the words.....”redacted Barr version of the”..........
Mueller redacted report’s release. Fixed it for you.
Wrong the Barr redaction will be released. Not the same. Congress needs to see the full report as do the people
This is still a redacted version and you are seriously misleading the public by offering a headline like this
No, it’s not. Barr’s redaction will be released. Likely without exhibits. Come on, Washington Post. Do better.
I'm telling you, that the Republicans had an agenda behind Trump. An anti gay campaign and an evangelical take over. They feared the Republican party dead now they can come in as heros.
My prediction.. Trump high-drama same day or next day...
People please do not let the media hype you up over this report. I'm sure it had been tainted by Barr.
Redacted, redacted, redacted, redacted .........
But it's not REALLY the Mueller report because it'll be so heavily redacted as to be nonsense. The real report should be sent to Congress NOW.
False BarrCoverUp He'll only let you see the things that don't hurt Trump. Don't fall for it.
In full?
Breaking - it's not news but, Barr's version of the Mueller Report to be released on Thursday.
The 'Redacted Mueller Report' is expected to be released. Get it together. Until the report is seen without redactions, it is not truly released. A limited version is being pushed out to us.
Wouldn't it be more accurate to say that a portion of the Mueller report which has been thoroughly scrubbed by an AG with a confirmed history of covering up state crimes (with Bush Sr) will be released on Thursday?
Barr's, not Mueller's report.
Just in time for Easter weekend. I’m surprised he isn't waiting until Good Friday. It will be nothing but retractions anyway. 😒🙄
The timing seems very planned. Thursday, day before Good Friday, on Easter weekend, while Congress is NOT in session.
This is Barr’s redacted and biased interpretation of Muller’s report.
WRONG!!: “Barr’s version of the Mueller report...”
Redacted report. Here we go again with breathless bad reporting.
And so it begins...
Et tu, idiots? Where is the word 'REDACTED'?
Just in time for Easter weekend... I'd say AG Barr is going for the ultimate (Good) Friday news dump Despicable TrumpsRoyCohn
It isn’t really the Mueller report. It’s Barr’s redacted report.
This is a fucking joke. Until we get the FULL REPORT, whatever Barr releases is suspect at best. RepJerryNadler Subpoena Mueller NOW.
REDACTED‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️
Let's see how much of a puppet Barr is. Another 3 days is already a sign that he is redacting too much.
You mean the Barr report....
It’s Barr’s report until the full unredacted report is delivered to Congress.

I fantasy Mueller made his version of “The Ghost Writer”, and that the clues from the beginning of each chapter of the report makes this message: “Trump was recruited as a Russian asset by Vladimir Putin”.
We are expected to believe this
🧐👇🏻
You mean Attorney General Barr’s version?! 😒 Your headline needs to be corrected... MuellerReport
wwylles Yes, and how much will be redacted?
Folks most things released by the government contains redactions. Makes for better TV ratings.
Let’s have 4 solid media days of speculation, anger, and vitriol. Just like every other day.
Misleading headline—please state the fact/context.
Get out of bed fake news fox already reported this
CherieSkiba Redacted Mueller report...get it right please?
Without missing pages, paragraphs, sentences and without thousands of redactions, I presume. Yeah, right.
To be closely followed by massive leaks if it’s too-heavily redacted. And volcanic activity in the area of Mar-a-Lago, since the Big Cheeto will hightail it outta town. HadEnoughYET ItISMuellerTime
Unredacted please. Even House of Representatives is united in this: 420-0 to release report.
'The REDACTED Mueller Report' you mean...
I have a feeling Congress will be have subpoenas ready for all unredacted materials the moment they get the Report. It’s not up to William Barr how Congress gets to conduct oversight.
Quick, deficitDon schedule a rally for Thursday night!!!
The day before a long weekend?
SPOILER ALERT: there was no collusion, obstruction, or illegal activity. 😮
*REDACTED
REDACTED for coverup purposes version of the Mueller report.
No. A heavily edited version of the report is being released. You need to be very clear on this.
Partial release. Until Congress gets the unredacted version Mueller Report has not been released. RepAdamSchiff HouseDemocrats RepJerryNadler SpeakerPelosi
'Justice Department'=oxymoron
Order extra tissues...
Yeah, that's not the Mueller report. It's the Barr report on the Mueller report. Let's get that straight. It's like calling a book report on The Lord of the Rings the actual Lord of the Rings.
How much time after its release should we expect additional remarks from the investigators, then?
And someone in the DoJ, hopefully, will like the damn thing before then.
Who cares it’s going to be redacted.
still not the report, please adjust your headlines
Trumpnis getting it early so his gaslighting will be ready to go
