I do believe we have voter fraud in America.

We have a lot of bad leaders around the world that operate in ways we would never tolerate in the United States.

Bin Laden, who was in his country, attacked and damaged our Pentagon, and killed our soldiers right out here at the Pentagon. But his pentagon no longer exists. It is rubble.

It's not so much the attorney general's job to decide what laws to enforce. We should do our jobs and enforce laws effectively as we're able.

Even moderates, they can see in Trump the potential to have logjams broken and things finally get done. This makes some conservatives and some liberals furious, nervous, and me nervous a little bit, because I'm a pretty pure conservative. So that's a potential of his leadership.

You do not walk into any hearing or committee meeting and reveal confidential communications with the president of the United States, who's entitled to receive confidential communications in your best judgment about a host of issues.

Every senator needs to stand up and represent their constituents - not big business, not the ACLU, not activist groups, not political interests, but the American interests, the workers' interests.

All soldiers who serve their country and put their lives at risk need to know that if something happens to them, their families will be well taken care of. That's the bond we have with our military men and women and their families.

Legal immigration is the primary source of low-wage immigration into the United States.

Drug trafficking is an inherently dangerous and violent business.

I have never used the word 'boy' to describe a black, nor would I tolerate it in my office.

You know the discrimination: African-Americans couldn't go to certain schools, they couldn't use certain restrooms, there were other kinds of routine biases against them.

I think it's clear to me that what - when I look at the tea party, it's about one-third Democrat, one-third Republican, one-third independents. But 100 percent of them are sure that the agenda that is taking place in Washington, D.C., is about extremism and is about bankrupting this country and every state within this country.

The goal of this Nation, I so strongly believe, is to be a preeminent world power. We have to understand what comes with that: The responsibility to be strong.

Every day, lax sentencing costs lives.

I enjoy repartee and frequently engage in devil's advocacy. In short, when I talk to friends, I do not guard every word that I say because I think that I know they know that my commitment to equality and justice is real, and they would not twist my words or misinterpret what I am saying to them.

The United States has the burden to lead for peace. And not just peace - we need peace with justice, a much harder goal.

Whereas the handling of the case against President Nixon clearly strengthened the nation's respect for law, justice and truth, the Clinton impeachment may unfortunately have the opposite result.

We can't do everything with a budget, but we can put the country on much sounder financial footing.

Marriage has been defined by every legislature that has ever sat in the United States from every State, now 50 States, the same way, but now we have unelected judges altering and changing that fundamental institution.

The proven method for saving the lives of innocent Americans is not disarming them. The proven method for saving the lives of innocent Americans is to arrest, prosecute, convict and jail criminal offenders, especially armed career criminals illegally using guns. This is the way to reduce gun violence.

The job of elected officials is to answer to the people who sent them to Washington - not to scorn them, not to demean them, not to mock them, and not to sell their jobs and dreams to the highest bidder.

I couldn't vote to confirm any candidate who supports executive amnesty. The attorney general is a top law enforcement officer in this country - the senior person - and anyone who occupies that office must have fidelity to the laws of the United States duly passed, and to the Constitution of the United States.

Failure to deport aliens who are convicted for criminal offenses puts whole communities at risk - especially immigrant communities in the very sanctuary jurisdictions that seek to protect the perpetrators.

Well, first of all, let's go right to it. We're going to balance the budget. We should live within our own means, and we should read the bills and work with the American people.

I did not have any private meetings nor do I recall any conversations with any Russian officials at the Mayflower Hotel.

How many thousands of lives would be saved if we enforced our immigration laws, our guns laws, and our drug laws? Public safety is not being held hostage by the 'gun lobby,' but by the open borders lobby and the anti-law enforcement lobby.

In America, the Supreme Court and the American people believe no one is above the law.

Know when cities and states refuse to help enforce immigration laws, our nation is less safe.

I certainly believe that improving our intelligence is of important national interest.

Congress has taken an action now that makes it absolutely improper and illegal to use waterboarding... or any other form of torture by our military and by our other departments and agencies.

Republicans do not believe in identity politics.

The caricature of me in 1986 was not correct. I do not harbor the kind of animosity and race-based discrimination ideas that I was accused of. I did not.

After years of mass immigration, falling wages, and surging joblessness, isn't it time we focused on the needs of the people living here today? Isn't it time we got our own people back to work?

It is clear that IDEA '97 not only undermines the educational process, it also undermines the authority of educators.

We need to resist the temptation to create more entitlements and more entitlements, which is one of the reasons we are heading recklessly toward fiscal crisis.

I recall saying that civil rights organizations, when they demand more than is legitimate, it hurts their position.

It is a core principle that prosecutors should charge and pursue the most serious readily provable offense.

I have supported civil rights activity in my state. I have done my job with integrity, equality, and fairness for all.

I am pleased to endorse Donald Trump for the presidency of the United States.

You don't have a constitutional right or a moral right to demand entry into any country.

My previous 15 years working in the Department of Justice were extraordinarily fulfilling. I love the Department, its people and its mission. I can think of no greater honor than to lead them.

You pay a price when you have an objective sentencing system. That is, nothing is perfect.

In retrospect there were failures enough to go around. There were failures before the storm and failures after the storm.

Iraq assumes responsibility for its own future... They have got to step up.

If we can get this economy moving and quit doing the things that prohibit growth, Alabama... can sustain that growth.

The elite denizens of Washington and Wall Street scorn and mock the good and decent people of this country for wanting their laws enforced and their communities protected.

As Washington prospers, workers suffer.

I'm a big fan of the DEA.

I will not vote for - and no senator should vote for - anyone who will not render justice impartially.
