-- And now Sessions has offered to meet with Nunes to discuss why they can't hand over documents now. --

Good (do you have a source for that story?). In the teevee segment where he said he was going to move to hold sessions in contempt, Nunes also said he didn't know for sure that Sessions had received the letters.

I speculate that Sessions has been sequestered from FBI/DOJ misconduct material by a DOJ-managed Chinese wall that exists to sequester him from Trump-campaign related stuff (Sessions is recused from Trump campaign cases).

In a way, Sessions recusal has been expanded without his agreement or knowledge.

A meeting between Nunes and Sessions can cover ground about why certain material about certain people should remain out of Congress view; and could also start a process of "open Sessions eyes" more specifically about what exactly he's been cut off from.

I think Assistant Attorney General Stephen E. Boyd is a key player in keeping Sessions in the dark. Boyd signed the letter that claimed the DOJ and the WH were opposed to giving Nunes, what Nunes reuquested.

I saw him say in in a press conference in San Diego. Her is one online report saying same.

Speaking in San Diego, California, on Monday, Sessions said the Justice Department has told Nunes his request goes too far but that the department would be willing to talk about to him about it.

BTW I saw an interview with Nunes after Sessions offer, and Nunes said he look forward to that meeting.

That letter from Boyd says that there could be dire consequences (looks of life, damaged relations with allies, etc) if information about a “specific individual” were to be made public. That must be the FISA judge Contreras, who had conflicts of interest and was recused from Flynn case. He approved the illegal spying of Carter Page. If he was outed, many bad guys, terrorists, could be set free and counterterrorism methods outed because they would claim the warrant was illegal.

Exactly...
