Mueller went to paper.

Chuck Rosenberg on Rachel characterizing mueller's reaction to barr false conclusions as "going to paper". Apparently you do that at DOJ to cover yourself if its really important and you think it could have big legal consequences later on. In my workplace, we do that via emails and technotes.

Pee pee tapes !!

Rachel is reporting on an interesting footnote in the Mueller report related to a russian businessman texting Cohen in 2016 that he stopped the flow of tapes from russia. Apparently compromising tapes related to 2013 Trump's trip to Russia during the miss universe contest. Footnote 112 volume 2.

Why do we care about justice department "policies" ?

It's not part of the constitution or even a law passed by Congress. Why do we allow political appointees ( i.e past AG's) to impose policies such as not wanting to indict a president ? If so, Barr could come up with some crazy policies and the justice department would blindly follow?
