Last month, the left-wing First Amendment Coalition sued Sessions and the DOJ, because Trump's government (federal investigators) had seized Ali Watkins' email and phone records during the on-going probe into probe into classified leaks. The lawsuit was initiated by the media, who are growing increasingly nervous and showing signs of panic.
As a refresher for folks, Ali Watkins is a NY Times reporter who is now 26 years old (as of 2018). She was having sex with James Wolfe (Senate Intelligence Committee senior staffer who has been discovered to have illegally leaked classified information to the media). When she started having sex with Wolfe (in 2014) in exchange for classified and sensitive government information that she published in the NY Times, she was only 22 years old. Wolfe is now 58.
Ali Watkins
James Wolfe
This point is key: Wolfe was the security director at the U.S. Senate Select Committee on Intelligence (SSCI) for three decades from 1987 to 2017 and reportedly managed all classified information.
He is completely dirty. Lord knows what damage this man has done to this nation. Further, Diane Feinstein has been leaking and divulging classified information and testimony for years, and this is before the Kavanaugh mess.
Sen. Dianne Feinstein partially blames 'bad cold' for release of Glenn Simpson's testimony
Think about all of this for a minute. We have members of the press (the NY Times, the most "respected" media outlet) literally prostituting themselves for classified information, provided by dirty career Senate employees, that is then published. A panicked media is now suing the Federal government for actually investigating the leaks of classified and sensitive information.

WOLFE “GO FUND ME”
Thanks for that post, SkyPilot! You have inspired me to get out the shovel and the auger to drill down on James A. Wolfe. Most interesting stuff!
Until I get the whole profile done - especially on the “wives” portion, here is a little factoid you might find interesting:
We have been having conversations here in the Qanteen about “Go Fund Me” accounts being the means for DS to pay off their minions. It seems that Wolfe is also one of these who has such an account. It doesn’t appear that they’ve paid him very well, but there you have it:

“I have dedicated my life to serving my country. Im a decorated U.S. Army veteran, and worked with both Democrats and Republicans on the U.S. Senate Select Committee on Intelligence for 31 years, including more than 29 as the Director of Security for the Committee. Every day, I have honored the trust that comes with that position, and have never, ever, breached it.
Despite my service, Im now in the fight of my life in an unfair and unjust prosecution. My freedom and livelihood are at stake.
President Trump and Attorney General Sessions have sought to crack down on leaks to the media from the Administration and Congress. On June 7, I was charged with making false statements about sharing nonpublic information with reporters. Despite President Trumps comments to the media, I have not been charged with disclosing classified information.
Ive been swept up in the political frenzy surrounding information leaks, and Im being singled out.
Im facing 15 years of jail time, and am fighting this alone. Ive worked for the government my entire life, and paying legal defense bills is already crushing me.
I need your help. Please consider contributing to my legal defense to fight this unfair prosecution.
On June 19, my attorneys filed a motion to stop President Trump and others from making misleading and prejudicial statements about my case in order to protect my Sixth Amendment right to an impartial jury and the presumption of innocence. I have to ensure that the truth comes out, and the only way I can do that is through a fair trial. You can find the motion here.
My attorneys, Benjamin B. Klubes and Preston Burton of Buckley Sandler LLP, released this statement on June 13, 2018.
Thank you for your support, and please help me spread the word by sharing this GoFundMe with your network.”
As it turns out, there are another couple of related factoids that may have bearing on this James Wolfe case/matter:
His lawyers tried to put a gag order on POTUS, claiming that POTUS was destroying Wolfe’s right to a fair trial by declaring him guilty.
https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2018/jul/23/james-wolfes-attorneys-seek-donald-trump-gag-order/
“U.S. District Judge Kentanji Brown Jackson who is overseeing the case, told prosecutors and defense counsel earlier this month that she expects to issue a decision on the gag order this week.
THEN:
On July 26, 2018, the judge declined to gag POTUS:
At the end of that article, it is noted that:
“Wolfe HAS PLEADED NOT GUILTY. No trial date has been set.”
[Caps are texokie’s]
So that could have affected the pay out from DS in the Go Fund Me. I don’t know that, but it is my speculation that there could be a relationship between the two.
Thank you for the information, very valuable.
Does anyone know how to link to a specific comment on a FR thread? I would love to link to this most excellent post from other media, unless of course that is frowned upon. Im not looking to spend time in the pokey.
