However, there is an exception when necessary to assure the public that the FBI is on the job.
Maybe I give him a pass there to acknowledge the investigation.
But where I really part ways with the way he handled that was two things that he did.
One, he announced that they were closing the investigation.
That announcement really should have come from the attorney general.
But she had recused herself by then or the deputy attorney general, Sally Yates.
And, you know, an inspector general report has indicated that Comey just called her and said, I'm making an announcement today.
Heads up.
Didn't tell her what it was about and then made this announcement.
And what he said then is, you know, he said the FBI was recommending that no charges should be filed.
And the case is closed.
I guess that's fine if it was publicly announced.
I guess you can announce that it's closed.
But then he didn't stop there.
He went on further to say that Hillary Clinton had been extremely careless.
And he criticized her and talked about the case and all of the bad things that they had found.
That is not how an investigation is supposed to work.
But then the second...
sin of Jim Comey came shortly thereafter.
So this closing of the announcement comes in the summer of 2016.
