is pleased where he talks about the 15-0 vote at the security counsel. china and russia voted with us. very big financial impact. couple of other topics are on the president s twitter feed, as well. very notable, a shift in tone related to attorney general jeff sessions. we have seen how the president publicly belittled him and called him weak. expressed his frustration over sessions recusing himself in the department of justice for the oversight of the russia investigations. with a new chief of staff in town, trying to stabilize things. the message going to sessions that his job is not in peril. jeff sessions, of course, has launched an intense investigation of leaks, especially of classified information. the president seems to like that based on his twitter feed. after many years of leaks going on in washington, great to see the a.g. taking action from national security. the tougher the better. and then we have been talking about it over the last 24 hours the president s vacation or
