Wiki

RAS syndrome stands for "Redundant Acronym Syndrome syndrome," and refers to the use of one of the words that make up an initialism or acronym as well as the abbreviation itself, thus in effect repeating that word. It is itself a humorous example of a redundant acronym.

Technically, this redundancy is a form of rhetorical tautology, and in many cases a pleonasm.
