Jeff Sessions actually said...

"agencies oftentimes see themselves as independent fiefdoms."

"These are big issues and you have to be sensitive to the power that the Department of Justice has."

"The Solicitor General... has a duty, the Department of Justice does, to defend the laws passed by this body, by Congress."

"Well, it can fail to enforce it by setting prosecutorial policies with regard to declining to prosecute whole chunks of cases and, in effect, eliminate a statute."
