The FBI could release its report on the investigation into Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server, along with notes on Clinton’s interview with the FBI, as early as Wednesday, multiple anonymous law enforcement officials told CNN.

The FBI’s report was forwarded to the Department of Justice with the recommendation that no charges be filed. Clinton’s 302, which are notes from an FBI agent on the former secretary of state’s voluntary interview, is also slated for release in response to numerous FOIA requests from news organizations.

“We are very pleased that this is being made public,” Kristina Schake, a Clinton spokeswoman, said in an on-air interview with CNN. “This is something we’ve wanted to have happen, and we’re really glad it’s going to.”

In July, FBI Director James Comey said he would not recommend charges against Clinton over the email server. Nevertheless, he admonished her for being “extremely careless” in her handling of classified material.

  1. …he admonished her for being “extremely careless” in her handling of classified material.

    But, tellingly, he couldn’t provide a single example of any release of classified material that placed U.S. interests in any jeopardy. Remember, the security guys would classify the lunch menu.

  2. Best to get it out and processed now rather than in October. Sigh.

  3. The hounding of Clinton would be farcical at this point, if it couldn’t have such earth-shattering consequences (the election of Trump).

    She remembers exactly what they asked her and exactly what her answers were.

  5. It’s just gonna dribble drabble out between now and November 8, creating a constant drumbeat of “Hillary has done something, anything wrong”. This is simply unconscionable.
