The Justice Department is asking a federal appeals court for more redactions, beyond those approved in federal court in April, to a legal opinion justifying drone killings . The Obama administration had earlier said they would not appeal the April decision that called for the release of the opinion. (Politico, May 27, 2014, by Josh Gerstein)
