DOJ hiding the fact that Erik Prince funded Roger Stone's racist voter suppression efforts (which is public record) with a privacy redaction.
Erik Prince described George Nader as a "courtesan" of the then VP of Iraq.

Is that code for "child predator who can be easily blackmailed who therefore makes a safe court gofer"?
I somehow missed this, but Joel Zamel first pitched the failson (he got the meeting thru Prince) in the context of an anti-Iran deal.

Bannon discussed the "union mentality" of Trump's supporters with Prince, from one of the most-anti-union families in the country, two days before he became campaign manager.
This redaction, given the parallel stream of questioning of Bannon, likely pertains to Prince's involvement in prepping Trump for the second debate.

DOJ hiding it under a privacy redaction.
Here DOJ hides Prince's involvement in Roger Stone's racist voter suppression efforts that involved coordination with the campaign behind a privacy redaction.
This continues DOJ's abuse of the FOIA process by releasing information it later obtained testimony showing to be false, but presenting it unredacted so people can read false exculpatory information.

Prince would later testify Stone gave him "insider trading" info on WL.
More examples where DOJ redacted the important bits under privacy redactions.
In which the former Navy SEAL pretends not to know how the texts regarding the Russian back channel disappeared from his phone and DOJ does him a solid by redacting most of the ridiculous explanation.
"Prince does not know why Nader sent Prince an image of Nader and Putin together."
Nader, however, did NOT mysteriously lose his texts and so there was a detailed record of the multiple meetings bt (Prince's description) the courtesan of MBZ and MBZ's mercenary.
