Jeff Sessions actually said...

"The Department of Justice is a great institution. Most of the people are people of the highest character and ability."

"It is perfectly proper, decent, and correct that this Nation not allow people who come here on a visa or illegally to remain here after they have committed crimes."

"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."
