The Justice Department redacted the names and identifiers of victims. Fox News Digital has learned that the same redaction standards were applied to politically exposed individuals and government officials.

Later, Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche told Fox News Digital in a phone interview that the Justice Department is „not redacting the names of any politicians.“

„The only redactions being applied to the documents are those required by law — full stop,“ Blanche told Fox News Digital, pointing to victims‘ names, victims‘ stories, any identifiable information. „Consistent with the statute and applicable laws, we are not redacting the names of individuals or politicians unless they are a victim.“

„There are no redactions of famous people,“ Blanche stressed.
