Washington Examiner ^ | Aug. 3, 2017 | Kelly Cohen

Attorney General Jeff Sessions will be joined by intelligence officials early Friday in a briefing on the leaks of classified information that have plagued the Trump administration.

Sessions will be joined by Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats, Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, and National Counterintelligence and Security Center Director William Evanina on Friday in Washington to discuss "leaks of classified material threatening national security," the Justice Department said Thursday afternoon.

He’s oblivious to the extent he WANTS to avoid all of the actions and consequences. He didn’t do squat about any of the attacks aimed at Trump until the President sent him a torrid of insults and complaints on what he has NOT done concerning these bogus reports.

Sessions is the AG.. he should have done something way before now and did not... he still is weak on doing anything. The fighter Trump is, it’s going to be difficult for Trump to let sessions do this at the pace he’s been traveling.

To fire him? The threats are loud and clear if he does. On the otherhand, if he wants to fire sessions, he should do a lot more along with it... and get rid of mueller, plus the rest of the active swamp. What mueller is doing requires him to recuse himself and he has no intentions of doing so... I’d just help him in the matter .. explain it to the public... get some supporters/backers around him who have Trump’s back... and get them all OUT.

Briefings are pro forma; there’s an assessment of damage done almost every time highly classified information finds its way into the media. (Yawn). Wake me up when Sessions announces some indictments, and we see folks like Susan Rice, Ben Rhodes, James Clapper and Jim Comey being perp-marched before a federal magistrate.

It makes no sense that a guy like that would say “I don’t support Trump” because he got a subpoena or fears one. It’s not like saying that would shield him from a subpoena if he had some connection to something, which as far as I can tell, he doesn’t. He’s just a talking head.

He’s not part of any Trump organization or the administration, and as far as I know, has had no contact with the administration. He’s just a commentator and twitter guy. How can he distance himself from someone he’s never been next to? What he seems to be saying is that he will become an objective reporter instead of an opinion-based commentator. If so, that is his right, but it sure impacts his credibility and courage that he would do it out of fear of a subpoena. IOW, he seems to just be a total loser and a poseur.

Cernovich has inside information before others.

Probably why he got a subpoena. He was told he was getting one.

"Sessions is a chump. Just announced that he put Rosenstein in charge of the investigations."

Maybe he knows his days in that office are numbered.

I see. So the only leakers who are going to get in trouble are those who get info that is supposed to help Trump.

Jeff's press conference seemed strange to me. He mentioned that there are investigations and 4 have been charged. I haven't read where anyone has been charged. I haven't even seen any leaks that claim that. We just have his word.

Adding all of that in, his final words at the press conference where these, which seem to me the explaination on why nothing has happened. His solution is just a matter of TRAINING.
