Justice Department releases redacted version of Mueller report

The Justice Department released on Thursday a redacted version of special counsel Robert Mueller's report on his investigation of Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election, including any potential links to President Trump's campaign.

The big picture: The public release comes just after the redacted report was sent to the House and Senate Judiciary Committees at 11 am ET. Attorney General Bill Barr said earlier this morning that President Trump's personal lawyers were able to view the redacted report earlier this week, which Axios later confirmed.
