1: Reeks of democrat desperation and virtue signaling
2: The possible infractions to private citizen's 4th amendment rights prevent a full unredacted release
3: Trump already said he was behind the report being released in its entirety. Democrats aren't special snowflakes when it comes to demanding transparency on this issue.

Nadler looks just like a Gringott's banker from the Harry Potter movies. Just needs pointy ears.

The DOJ’s regulations also dictate what happens at the conclusion of a special counsel investigation, which is where we are now. Pursuant to 28 CFR § 600.8: “At the conclusion of the Special Counsel’s work, he or she shall provide the Attorney General with a confidential report explaining the prosecution or declination decisions reached by the Special Counsel.” The counsel’s report is to be “handled as a confidential document as are internal documents relating to any federal criminal investigation.”

The attorney general also has an obligation to share the special counsel’s findings with Congress, although there is no duty to disclose the full report. Under 28 CFR § 600.9(a)(3), the attorney general must provide to the chairs and ranking minority members of the House and Senate Judiciary Committees, “to the extent consistent with applicable law, a description and explanation of instances (if any) in which the Attorney General concluded that a proposed action by a Special Counsel was so inappropriate or unwarranted under established Departmental practices that it should not be pursued.” According to Barr, “There were no such instances during the Special Counsel’s investigation.”

Never trust an independent special counsel to do a partisan's job...

you guys really have to get better with your wording. He doesn't "have the ability to force" anything. He has the House's blessing to TRY to force the issue but that doesn't mean he actually has the ability....as he will soon be reminded.

Just who are these televison politicians and televison
journalists that will not accept a document unless it has been unredacted, will
not appear on televison unless they are well bathed in hair dye? to this
blogger appears like a contradiction bathed in reality or, “a riddle wrapped in
an enigma”…

Barr's cover-up of the Mueller report is failing.
