It doesn't do any good. As a long time public defender used to remind me: "Their best thinking landed them in jail."

Under the section "Ready for some sexxxxxxy [REDACTED]?" there exists the phrase:

With respect to the first, sort of, subtopic here, the discussions concerning the some blacked out text here

Ukraine, we were talking about ...

While Wonkette hypothesizes that the blacked out text contains "plan for", I note instead that the monospace (fixed width) font makes it easy to count that there are exactly 18 characters missing. Curiously, my first guess upon reading the redacted statement was for a phrase that, it turns out, consists of exactly 18 characters.

I'm willing to bet that that redacted text does not include the phrase "plan for" but instead reads "quid pro quo in re", as in:

What do y'all think?
