But Barr acknowledged at a news conference prior to the public release of special counsel Robert Mueller's report that he disagreed with Mueller's legal theories on whether those episodes amounted to obstruction"as a matter of law." Barr also said Trump did not assert executive privilege over the redacted report. He said"most" of the redactions were needed"to prevent harm to ongoing matters and to comply with court orders prohibiting the public disclosure of information bearing upon ongoing investigations and criminal cases." Department of Justice attorneys worked with Mueller's office on the redaction process, Barr said.
