1. Is Mueller jerking judge Sullivan around? I think so. Here's what DOJ just filed in the Flynn docket. @maddow @Lawrence @MaddowBlog @NatashaBertrand 
2. Here's today's court docket entry.
"Government To File Publicly-Available Version Of Special Counsel Robert S. Mueller, II's Report On The Investigation Into Russian Interference In The 2016 Presidential Election On The Public Docket due by 5/17/2019."
"Government To File Publicly-Available Version Of Special Counsel Robert S. Mueller, II's Report On The Investigation Into Russian Interference In The 2016 Presidential Election On The Public Docket due by 5/17/2019."
3. So Mueller says he can't fit it on the CM/ECF system? That total BS. They can file it in parts. I helped write our local rules for this system back in the early part of this century. @TheJusticeDept is jerking Judge Sullivan around. @uscourts
4. Judge Sullivan's clerks can put it up. Also, just scanning the document to a smaller PDF is easy to do. This is total baloney. Whatever is in that unredacted report may expose what the real counterintelligence investigation is. I have reported is not what you think it is.
5. Use of "color coded" redactions rather than black background with white letters, Barr was able to bloat #MuellerReport file to size that becomes cumbersome. When you're watching a former CIA agent cover-up specialist running @TheJusticeDept for the Kremlin, nothing is random.
6. That didn't take long. Judge Sullivan orders the report filed in parts.
7. Mueller has two weeks to get his ducks in order when this must be filed.
MOrder May 16: "The government is FURTHER ORDERED to file on the public docket in this case by no later than May 31, 2019 an unredacted version of those portions of the report that relate to Mr. Flynn."
MOrder May 16: "The government is FURTHER ORDERED to file on the public docket in this case by no later than May 31, 2019 an unredacted version of those portions of the report that relate to Mr. Flynn."
8. I think a lot relates to Flynn. My tools found 78 occurrences of "Flynn" in the full report. Pages Included: 6, 7, 15, 17, 20, 36, 42, 70, 71, 72, 150, 153, 157, 165, 167, 168, 175, 176, 177, 178, 179, 180, 181, 191, 202, 203, 209, 211, 215, 217, 218, 224, 227, 228, 236, 237,
9. 238, 241, 242, 243, 244, 245, 246, 248, 249, 250, 251, 252, 253, 254, 255, 256, 257, 258, 259, 260, 261, 263, 264, 287, 288, 294, 301, 321, 324, 332, 333, 334, 343, 344, 360, 369, 370, 404, 406, 425, 426, 443.
10. I would recommend that Judge Sullivan request, in camera, disclosure of the number of additional "Flynn" references in the fully unredacted report. I think they are likely everywhere thoughout both parts of the #MuellerReport.
11. My best suggestion is that all the US district judges in DC with open active Trump Russia cases, should have access to the full unredacted #MuellerReport in the DC SCIF. @uscourts
12. I recognize that there may be national security issues covered in the redactions but if we can't trust federal judges to protect national security the Republic is already lost.
