It feels like Trump signed off somehow on names and addresses being redacted, or at least, that's what they told him. NARA are sitting back and letting the agencies and Trump decide between themselves what is going on. Then CIA are just wholesale redacting, with the knowledge that there is no forum whatsoever for anyone to call them on it, the media are too clueless and distant and ignorant to appreciate what is happening, and there is no legal mechanism to stop them doing it.
The dozen or so pages missing from the Garrison piece was ridiculous. No partial redactions, just get rid of the whole thing. The same with Phillips.
The media should be called to answer why the CIA can broadly redact stuff that points towards involvement or complicity of CIA figures. Meanwhile The Guardian is printing stories quoting CIA memos that absolve the CIA of it's own involvement, and treating those memos as revelatory news. They should dig up the Youtube link of Richard Helms offering further denials and run that alongside it.
