comey: A week ago, FBI Director James Comey intervened in the presidential campaign in a highly provocative way, releasing a vague letter to Congress about Hillary Clinton emails that seemed almost designed to generate innuendo, according to MSNBC. Reuters reported yesterday Comey was driven in part by a fear of leaks from within his agency when he decided to release the document. More recently, however, related concerns came to the fore – about *domestic* officials doing the same thing. The same Reuters report added that a faction of investigators based in the FBI New York Field Office is known to be hostile to Hillary Clinton. Consider the report from the *Guardian* Spencer Ackerman, who discussed his reporting on the show.
