Attorney General Jeff Sessions, in an interview with FOX News Channel's 'Sunday Morning Futures' hosted by Maria Bartiromo, discussed as much as he can about the Justice Department's investigation into the Hillary Clinton email case.



"We’re going to do our job in his department properly and correctly," he said. "We can’t do that in the media we’re going to restore the rule of law."



Sessions also said that he has no regrets about recusing himself from investigations regarding the 2016 campaign, saying: "No one can participate in the investigation of a campaign in which they were an active participant."





MARIA BARTIROMO: So you feel there are matters you can get into, for example, there’s a lot of feeling out there that the Hillary Clinton e-mail investigation was a sham. Loretta Lynch told Jim Comey to call it a matter and that’s exactly what he did. In fact, it was a criminal investigation; we know that he wrote an exoneration letter Jim Comey did before he even did the interview with Hillary Clinton. What have you learned in terms of the opening reopening of the Hillary Clinton e-mail investigation? Will there be charges? Will there be accountability here sir?



ATTY. GEN. JEFF SESSIONS: Maria, we’re going to do our job in his department properly and correctly, and I’m not going to be led into a discussion of all the details of matters that you might be interested in. We can’t do that in the media we’re going to restore the rule of law, we’re to restore propriety in how cases are managed and that’s all I can promise you.



BARTIROMO: Do you regret recusing yourself from anything related to Russia sir?



SESSIONS: I believe I did the right thing, they only thing I could do. I participated in this campaign and as such under explicit regulations of the Department of Justice; no one can participate in the investigation of a campaign in which they were an active participant.
