FBI Director James Comey will make a statement Tuesday at 11 am eastern from headquarters in Washington D.C. He will also take questions from reporters. The statement will be on live on camera. Questions from reporters will be off-camera.
Comey has repeatedly attempted to reassure Americans politics will have no bearing in the FBI’s final decision about whether or not to indict the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee.
Over the weekend the FBI interviewed former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, one of the final steps in the ongoing criminal investigation into alleged mishandling of classified information. Clinton was interviewed for more than three hours. Top aides Huma Abedin and Cheryl Mills were interviewed earlier this year. Former Clinton staffer Brian Pagliano, who was hired to set up the private server in Clinton’s home, was given immunity by the FBI and has been cooperating. During a separate deposition conducted by Judicial Watch, Pagliano plead the Fifth more than 125 times. More than 2000 pieces of classified information, including top secret information, have been found on Clinton’s server.
After the interview, Clinton said she was happy to “voluntarily” cooperate the FBI and continued to call the criminal investigation a security “review,” a classification Comey rejected two months ago.
