"For more than five hours, Attorney General Jeff Sessions sat in a hearing room on Capitol Hill this month, fending off inquiries on Washington’s two favorite topics: President Trump and Russia.
But legislators spent little time asking Sessions about the dramatic and controversial changes in policy he has made since taking over the top law enforcement job in the United States nine months ago."

The entire piece is written like an unintentional caricature of what you'd expect from a partisan news outlet but my favorite line was ...
"Sessions has implemented a new charging and sentencing policy that calls for prosecutors to pursue the most serious charges possible, even if that might mean minority defendants face stiff, mandatory minimum penalties."
Keep in mind this was not an Opinion piece.
It was written by a couple of WAPO's Justice Department/National Security reporters.
