Not much can get between senators and a recess. Except, perhaps, FBI Director James B. Comey.
Members of the Senate Intelligence Committee, along with ex-officio member and Minority Leader Charles E. Schumer, huddled for a total of more than two hours on Friday with Comey.
The FBI director’s visit was not announced publicly, and it’s possible members of the Capitol Hill press corps only found out because he was spotted in the hallways and entered a secure room used for intelligence briefings.
But leaving that secure room in the Capitol Visitor Center, senators declined to even confirm the presence of the FBI director, much less the substance of the meeting. Those who did talk generally only gave “no comments” or referred questions to Intelligence Chairman Richard M. Burr and ranking member Mark Warner.

Ping to story in senate intel committer meeting with director comey.
You know someone will talk. Someone has already talked to someone who has talked to A.G. Sessions...bet on it...
Just keep draining the swamp.
Foreign and Domestic...
Trumps’ Wall is Going UP!

They will talk only if the information they received fits their narrative about Flynn and the Russians.
Since not much has leaked about it, I would wager that the Left heard stuff they didn’t want to hear and some of it was about an aggressive push to find illegal leakers....
Dunno....maybe it’s a charge referral on multiple counts to AG about Hillary Clinton. If there are any leaks, they may be secret, just to Bill and Hillary (and the Hubbell Princess) to get the hell out of Dodge.....

Probably, but in the meantime I believe there are just 2 possibilities:
1. Good news for Trump from Comey therefore no leaks.
2. Dems fear a trap and are temporarily holding back on leaking.
I think it’s #1.
Wonder if Comey has the names of the so called intel people who violated the laws re their attempted lynching of Flynn and President Trump. As per the article below:
LEAKERS BEWARE: DONALD TRUMP HAS UTTERLY DEFEATED THE DISLOYAL COTERIES OF THE US INTELLIGENCE COMMUNITY
President Trump has defeated Democrats in the intelligence community (IC) who were leaking classified information to the press. Such leaks have been a problem for many presidents, but Trump is the first who took a proactive approach and set up a sting operation that identified the leakers.
It’s highly illegal to leak classified information. It’s also illegal to PUBLISH this information, but Trump is too smart to try and prosecute reporters.
I thought that Trump would fire members of the IC until the leaks stopped, but the president solved the problem with a much more imaginative and deadly approach: He fed the IC false information. When this information was published, Trump was able to identify individual leakers.
How?
Each group or individual, who leaked was given a different version of events. This is CLASSIC spycraft. If nine individuals are told nine different stories, and then each of those stories is published, you know the identity of each person who talked to the press.
It’s called a “barium meal,” after the medical test used to detect problems in the gastrointestinal tract. Soft tissues don’t show up on X-rays. Barium salts are “radio-opaque,” meaning that they show up in a radiograph or X-ray.
Author Tom Clancy called it a “canary trap.” You give multiple sources multiple versions of events. When the sources repeat their version word for word, you can identify each leaker individually.
Magic
In World War II, “Magic” was the code name for the code-breaking done by the US Army’s Signals Intelligence Service (SIS) and the US Navy’s Communication Special Unit. Japanese military code was called “Purple.” Although Magic had been able to break much of Purple, some things were still a mystery.
Magic determined in early 1942 that the Japanese were close to carrying out a major attack. However, the location of the attack—which the Japanese called “AF”—could not be figured out. Therefore the Americans carried out a barium test: Using an underwater cable, they contacted Midway Island, telling the base to broadcast a radio message “in the clear” that the desalinization plant had broken down.
The Japanese immediately sent a coded message to their forces that the desalinization plant at AF had broken down.
Now the Americans knew that the target of the impending attack was Midway Island. The greatest admiral in the US Navy—Frank Jack Fletcher—was sent out to meet the Japanese before they arrived.

If they’re not flapping their gums about it, then it was probably something they didn’t want to hear. Not fitting the narrative for their sedition. Traitors all.
Something is definitely up if their mouths aren’t flapping.
If it was stuff the left didn’t like they would be complaining and leaking already.
We can only hope that he warned Schumer that Debby Washerwoman-Schultz and a few other Congressmen are going to be indicted for their role in allowing Muslim Brotherhood spies (the Awan brothers) access to Congressional computers and classified information.
Not if it belied all their recent rhetoric and let them know that serious repercussions were in the offing for more leaks.
Holy crap, this is serious stuff. Get more popcorn!
