It makes perfect sense when you come from the angle that the SC did not want the report released to the public. The report itself found no collusion and from Barr's memo in June the SC knew the AG would find no obstruction. So what to do? The SC & the angry Dems knew they had zip

So what to do? If they mark the report up and label the classified report Barr could quickly release the report to the public showing that the SC had no case. Remember, the SC was suppose to be confidental. It's how Washington DC works. Use selected leaked confidential info to..

..craft false narratives. The idea IMO was to keep the report confidential as long as possible( while having the Dems scream for release) and slowly leak selected, out of context parts to craft a fake obstruction narrative.

The Dems would then hold hearings, some behind closed doors, where they would push this narrative while leaking to the media. The entire investigation has always been about the crafting of a narrative. It took more than a month for the AG to go through the report and redact.

That month + was suppose to be the time that the narrative was created. If AG and Trump would have followed Standard DC operating procedure even when the report was finally released large portions of the report would have been redacted as Trump claimed executive privilege.

AG Barr screwed them by releasing his 4 page letter stating clearly no collusion and no obstruction. He set the narrative then he continued to screw them by quickly going through the report and releasing almost the entire report. It's became very hard for the Dems and media...

...at that point to craft a false narrative with the full report released, since people can read the report and know the Dems are lying their ass off. The contempt hearing yesterday is evidence for this strategy.

The hearing is the exact strategy outlined above. They used the very small part that was redacted to make it seem AG Barr is hiding something. Vol 2 of the report is 99.9 % unredacted yet the Dems want people to believe that 0.1% contains the smoking gun. It's laughable.

Now imagine what they could do if the report was 50% redacted? Or 90% redacted and only the summaries were released? AG Barr in essence used sunlight to kill the vampires on the left. This is what pissed off SC team. Mueller's letter about Barr's 4 page letter confirms this.

Mueller was mad not because the AG letter was inaccurate with the statement no collusion and no obstruction. He admitted it was accurate. He was upset because without the summaries (their crafted narrative) the letter itself became the narrative. The quick release of the entire..

.....report including the summaries furthered AG Barr's take on the report. As the entire report itself clears Trump of everything. The Dems can't pick and choose selected parts. They can't craft a believable narrative that will give enough political capital to impeach.

They can't use their media to lie because the underlying document is available to the entire public to see. AG Barr and Trump defeated the SC/dems by using sunlight. The actions of the SC to not label report shows they didn't want sunlight they wanted a narrative.
