“That is a violation of the law — to leak classified documents and it is being investigated,” Sessions said. “I will say this — there are — last two years before I became Attorney General, there were each year there were three open investigations of classified leaks. Now we have 27. We’re going after this aggressively. I have directed it personally. Some of the matters involve this matter, and some of it is a matter I am not recused on, and we’re pursuing it aggressively.”
