FBI Director James Comey has revealed that the
agency will not pursue criminal charges against U.S presidential candidate
Hillary Clinton barely a day to the elections, after shocking the American
public last month when he sent a letter to Congress saying the FBI had
discovered emails that could be connected to the now-closed probe of whether
Clinton mishandled classified information while secretary of State.
"Based on our review, we have not changed our conclusions that we expressed in July," Comey wrote in the new letter to congressional committee chairmen.
"Based on our review, we have not changed our conclusions that we expressed in July," Comey wrote in the new letter to congressional committee chairmen.
According to Comey, the FBI
won't be going through with investigation of Hillary Clinton as they've
searched through thousands of emails found during the FBI's separate
investigation into a sexting incident by Anthony Weiner, the estranged husband
of top Clinton aide Huma Abedin.
"We went through this
as fast as we could," a senior FBI official told CNN. 'We worked round the
clock'
"Keep in mind we are
focused on intent," the official said.
"We know there are
classified materials, but that doesn't change the conclusion reached back in
July."
Trump, who is closing down
Hillary in polls nationally and in key battleground states, reacted to the
news, saying it isn't possible to examine 650,000 emails in eight days.
"You can't review
650,000 new emails in eight days. You can't do it, folks," Trump said
in a Minneapolis rally on Sunday, adding, "Hillary Clinton is guilty.
'
'She knows it, the FBI
knows it, the people know it, and now it's up to the American people to deliver
justice at the ballot box on November 8."
"She wants virtually
unlimited immigration and refugee admissions from the most dangerous regions of
the world to come into our country, and to come into Minnesota, and you know
better than anybody," he said.
"Her plan will import
generations of terrorism, extremism and radicalism into your schools and
throughout your communities. You already have it. When I'm elected president,
we will suspend the Syrian refugee program and we will keep radical Islamic terrorists
the hell out of our country."
