The usual claim is that they have to redact stuff to protect “sources and methods” of intelligence gathering.

I think the reality is that most redactions are just to prevent the embarrassment of American politicians who do shameful things.

Mueller redacted the entire investigation into real Russian collusion to save Obama/Clinton embarrassment.

protect “sources and methods”

Which is also a Crock of Chit, most people with a Brain can understand clearly that ANYTHING Electronic can and will be Used to Spy on you, All communications can be listened in on, All email and Internet, Multiple People videotaping and recording from different locations, multiple vehicles in rotation to follow you around,not to mention the dozens of Satellites looking down at you and recording everything,....

Bottom Line, Sources and Methods is a Rouse!!!

“The usual claim is that they have to redact stuff to protect “sources and methods” of intelligence gathering.”

The issue would be not that we assume they were doing it, but how we supposedly “know” they were doing it. The Russians doing the taping, not the phone sex itself.

Clinton and intelligence gathering. Hard to keep that in the same sentence.

Besides, what he did with her is no one’s business. The crime was his lying about it under oath. Lying about anything under oath is perjury which is defined as the offense of willfully telling an untruth after having taken an oath or affirmation. So does the sex mean anything? Nope. (Unless you’re a conservative president like in the Trump/Daniels thing.)
