wuerl's replacement. >> getting through the gridlock will thursday's tanker truck crash on the beltway make changes to help your commute. we begin with breaking news and the new battle over the mueller report. >> congress still hasn't seen it, and attorney general william barr says it will be a little while longer before any of us gets to see it. >> he sent a letter to congress tonight informinge leaders of committees that a redacted report would be in their hands by mid april. he wrote there are no plans to submit the report to the white house for review of anyiv exec privilege claims. >> jerry nadler sent a prompt rely today informing barr thatp the 2nd deadline still standsor the full delivery of the report. >> pete williams joins us this evening to talk about it. what would be redacted in this report. >> there should be no surprises

here. this is exactly what barr said in his letter to congress last sunday, yes, the full report will be made public and given to congress, but certain things have to be left out. grand jury material, which he said i i his letter illegal to share outside the justice grand jury process. any information that wouldop dize the sources and methods for gathering yttelligence. ng that would impede ongoing investigations. those three things were inis tter. then he added a fourth category, i'm reading into this a little bit, i'll tell you what theis language i'm assuming it'le peop who were investigated but not charged. this is the way his letter describes it, he says, information that would unduly infringe on the personal privacy and reputational interests of peripheral third parties. so i don't think it would be -- it would damage anyone's reputation to knowwere interviewed by the special younsel, but if the report said

for example the investigated them for ame possible cri but didn't charge them, that might. so that also i think you can assume would be left out because that revealing people that were investigated and never charged lauld v justice department policy with the notable exception of hillary clinton. >> two things on the testimonyn itself we comes before congress -- >> which he said he'd do may 1st and second before senate and judiciary. >> would it be televised. >> s. >> does barr have to sign off on mueller? >> i don't know. that's a good question. i think one of the questions is, by the time that barrfi tes and when congress subpoenas mueller, will mueller still be a federal employee? if so, yes, like any u.s. attorney mueller would have to get justice department signoff and he might still get sign off on what he can talk about. because while he was the special counsel he was still working for the justice department, reporting to the deputy attorney
