And why would “investigation is still ongoing” stop them from releasing it? My opinion: either a convenient excuse, or yet another self-own from the Democratic Party.
They chose not to release it, despite being under no true obligation.

It’s standard DOJ protocol to avoid compromising witnesses, active leads, or uncharged co-conspirators. Releasing unredacted files mid-investigation could tank prosecutions.
