Jeff Sessions bows to Trump pressure and launches crackdown on leakers

[signalmankenneth]

Sessions will not be able to stop the leaks? The leaks are from people within the government who just don't like Trump?!!

I bet Kenny supported all the leaks in the Obama admin.

Exactly. It's like putting a finger into a dike, he'll stop one and another one will step up.

Sessions condemned the “staggering number of leaks” and said that in the first six months of the Trump administration, the department had already received “nearly as many criminal referrals” involving disclosure of classified information as it had received in the last three years combined.

what about the unmasking/

Perhaps Sessions should organize a covert task force and call them "the plumbers"...
That worked out well for stopping Nixon's white house leaks...
LMFAO

i realize this. But it's a misleading headline -he's not recommending removal- merely the status quo.
And he certainly isn't an investigator. But it was always going to be touch and go with her
despite the YUGE amounts of unmaking

Much more problematic is Powers -she really had no need to know,and then Ben Rhodes..
so somebody needs to investigate all 3 of these.The Senate has no interest in doing so ( not surprising)
