Only yesterday, leaked transcripts of conversations between Trump and Mexican & Australian leaders were published in The Washington Post.
At a news conference today, Jeff Sessions insisted the US "must end the culture of leaks".
He said the department "has more than tripled" the number of leak investigations, compared to the number at the end of the Obama administration.
Mr Sessions also claimed officials will "investigate and seek to bring criminals to justice".
