De Santis isn't ready. (the founding fathers had nothing to do with establishing the DOJ)
Quote:
The governor has privately told advisors that he will hire and fire plenty of federal personnel, reorganize entire agencies, and execute a “disciplined” and “relentless” strategy to restore the Justice Department to a mission more in line with what the “Founding Fathers envisioned.”
But his ambitions go beyond bureaucratic restructuring. He wants to physically remove large swathes of the DOJ from the District of Columbia, including FBI headquarters, RealClearPolitics is first to report.

The Attorney General position was created in 1789 and his primary duties were to represent the U.S before the Supreme Court (which was created by the same Act). The DOJ was not created until After the Civil War, and was primarily set to deal with the problems of Reconstruction in the Southern U.S.
