Additionally, in July 2016, then-FBI Director James Comey announced there would be no charges filed against Hillary Clinton over her use of a personal e-mail server, calling her actions “extremely careless.” However, a few days before the presidential election, Comey wrote a letter to Congress in which he said the FBI had discovered “the existence of emails that appear to be pertinent to the investigation.” He said that the FBI had not yet reviewed the emails and was unsure whether “this material may be significant.”
