I'm not sure if pointing out the president's own behavior and statements is the same thing as a leak.
Trump is his own worst enemy. For example, look at his fit over the death toll in Puerto Rico for Hurricane Maria. He would have been fine if he didn't follow his worst impulses to petulantly tweet with facts with which he disagrees.

The one thing Strzok made mention of while discussing between him and his lover was how upset their "sisters" were over some of the leaks.
I have seen some say "sisters" is a reference to the CIA. If that is true, then we have a whole hell of a lot to worry about if the FBI has now become a symbiotic organization connected to the CIA?
The CIA is called the sister organization of the FBI, yes.
Fun fact for you...
President Trumpâs initial pick for national security adviser (Flynn) had long been skeptical of the unchecked power of the U.S. intelligence community. Flynn wanted to prioritize several foreign policy agenda items, such as ending the Iran deal, moving the U.S. embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, and designating the Muslim Brotherhood as a terrorist organization.
There was one more priority item for Flynn. Through his experience as a general in foreign war zones, he found that there were several fractures in the intelligence cycle, which harmed U.S. troopsâ ability to succeed on the battlefield. As national security adviser, Flynn intended to conduct an audit on the intelligence community as a whole. A full audit of the U.S. intelligence communityâs activities has not been completed since 1975, following the Nixon administrationâs Watergate scandal.
While serving in the Obama administration, Flynnâs earlier attempts at intelligence reform infuriated the upper echelons of the Pentagon and the Central Intelligence Agency. Flynnâs enemies list continued to grow when, as Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) director, he testified in front of the Congress and challenged the Obama White House narrative that al Qaeda had been âdecimated.â The Obama administration forced him into early retirement shortly thereafter.
It became quite clear that the incoming national security adviser posed a direct challenge to the fourth branch of government â the unaccountable Washington bureaucrat class, including the intelligence community, which some have come to refer to as the âdeep state.â
And where is Flynn now...
Thereâs a reason why you havenât heard much from Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn lately. The man who served his country honorably for 33 years has been effectively silenced by special counsel Robert Mueller as he awaits sentencing.
Given the circumstances of his plea deal, Flynn cannot speak publicly about anything related to the charges against him. Doing so could void his plea agreement with Muellerâs team and open him up to further legal proceedings that he is financially unable to defend himself against.
Yes, this is much larger than we think.
ETA: Sorry for being a thread hog Xuen, but I thought the information pertinent to the OP.

I remember this. But you know, Some people don't like the guy and are ok with all of this. The "Its all just conspiracies theories" tripe is fueled by confirmation bias.

Im not sure the Trump team, more specifically Giuliani really want to push this whole FBI leak to the media thing..Especially since you had Rudy running out to every media source that would take im in 2016 saying he had sources in the New York FBI office leaking sensitive info about Clinton to him.

I brought up Trump because the midterm elections are all about Trump.

OK now I understand. Trump has nothing to do with the midterms. He's just an obscure minor character regulated to a dingy corner this election cycle .
Nobody on either side will pay any attention to him or his policies and he/they will be totally inconsequential as far as voters are concerned .
My bad
