Attorney General Jeff Sessions will hold a press conference announcing on-going leak investigations on Friday.
The investigations into various government leaks have "been in the works for some time," an official familiar with the matter told CBS News' Paula Reid.
It is expected that leaks related to the Manchester terror attack will be part of the Justice Department's investigation, as well as other leaks of sensitive information to the media.
Sessions recently faced criticism from President Trump for not being "tougher on the leaks from the intelligence agencies."
While it is atypical for the Department of Justice to announce investigations, the attorney general issued a statement in May hinting at potential leak investigations.
"These leaks cannot be tolerated and we will make every effort to put an end to it," Sessions' statement reads, referencing the Manchester terror attack leaks. "We have already initiated appropriate steps to address these rampant leaks that undermine our national security."

“Why did Lindsey Graham say, “There will be hell to pay if Trump fires Sessions”??”
You are quoting Linda Graham? You cannot be serious. This clown in a never Trumper.
Four people have been charged and there are triple the number of investigations ongoing. Wake up. Things are happening.
And its all bullshine. Comey admitted under oath that he leaked his conversation with Trump. Where’s those charges? That confession was right on TV.
More gum flapping from Sessions is helpful how, exactly? On the very day the Senate GOP is voting to obstruct POTUS if he wants to fire Mueller. The very least Sessions should be pushing back at the nonsense coming from the Senate. That he is not tells you where his beltway careerist loyalties are.
Are you disputing that four people have been charged?
you need to cross your T's and dot your I's more carefully.
“Investigations mean nothing. Arrests do. No results and there never will be. Feckless, impotent, Prosecutorial ED.”
I agree to a point. Unless these leakers are arrested and jailed the leaks will continue. People need to go to jail for this to stop.
WHAT ARE the 4 LEAKER’S NAMES that have been CHARGED??????? What a STUPID STORY NOT TELLING US!!
What four? This leaking crap has come out of the White House. What NSC and White House staffers were charged? They have also come from DOJ and State. What DOJ or State Dept employee was charged? What intel community member was charged?
Not a one.
That four prosecuted is as fake as a Vietnam body count.
Ok, who has been charged. Who are the 4 leakers Sessions has had arrested?
Names should be pretty simple. What cases?
So, after 8 years of wholesale treason and lawlessness, why do we have a special counsel and grand jury empaneled against Trump?
INACTION by various Trump appointees or nonsensical actions should be an indicator someone has been compromised by blackmail. The Deep State has something on Sessions and have hogtied him with blackmail.
Bush set up the intelligence system, Zer0 weaponized it.
Exactly.
But not to worry, there will be a policy review.
He’s not announcing his resignation?
>He’s not announcing his resignation?
He should announce that the CIA’s been blackmailing him. I really can’t explain his actions otherwise.
THIS is the Biggest scandal to ever hit DC!
WHO are the four that have been charged??? I WANT NAMES!!!
He's probably busy working under a brand new contract to perform routine maintenance on all the House computers while the members are all away on recess throughout August.
