Political Quotes

On the recordApril 28, 2021
It's great to have a president who is hands off in terms of the Justice Department. It's great to have an attorney general who is not bringing cases or announcing investigations for political reasons or intervening in sentencings, like Trump -- Attorney General Bill Barr did with Roger Stone or to make the Mike Flynn case go away. It's good to have an independent Justice Department, again, doing independent work.
