HH: I’m joined by the Attorney General of the United States, the Honorable Jeff Sessions. General Sessions, welcome, it’s a great honor to have you. I worked for two Attorney Generals long ago and far away, and I have said throughout this process you are more qualified than anyone I have ever seen in my lifetime take that office. Congratulations.
JS: Thank you, Hugh. It’s good to be back with your program, and I do love the department, having spent 15 years here. And it’s so great to return. And there’s a lot of good things we can do.
