FBI Director James Comey said hes not going to reopen the investigation into Hillary Clintons emails, telling Congress on Wednesday that none of the recent revelations since he closed the case in July would come near to triggering that extraordinary step.
He also refused to say if hes investigating whether Mrs. Clinton lied in her testimony to Congress about her emails but said they have received referrals from Congress asking for a new probe.
Appearing before Congress for yet another marathon session, Mr. Comey was badgered by Republicans who said the more they see, the less they understand his decision to clear Mrs. Clinton of criminal wrongdoing in her mishandling of classified information.

His first run-in came in the mid-1990s, when he joined the Senate Whitewater Committee as a deputy special counsel. There he dug into allegations that the Clintons took part in a fraud connected to a Arkansas real estate venture gone bust. No charges were ever brought against either Clinton..."
"In 2002, Comey, then a federal prosecutor, took over an investigation into President Bill Clinton's 2001 pardon of financier Marc Rich, who had been indicted on a laundry list of charges before fleeing the country. ..."

He wants to stay alive-I believe that-He and his whole family will die if he re-opens the case. The corruption is worse than imagined—Tip of the Iceberg.
So... now, in 2016, under obama, the Director of the United States Federal Bureau of Investigation feels he can get away with simply refusing to enforce the law.
Shows how far we’ve fallen as a nation.
Comey, meanwhile, is a disgrace.
“for reasons that we can guess.”
He prefers breathing to the alternative?
Does that apply to the Clinton Foundation investigation too, BECAUSE LORETTA LYNCH HAS SHUT DOWN BOTH!!!
Nothing will happen because Obama is in this up to his PP.
Comey needs to be sent to prison.
Comey needs to be investigated. Hell if you look at his credentials he shouldn’t even have his current position based on his history.
Lynch doesn’t have to shut any investigation down. She just gives out
Blanket Immunity deals to all the targets of the investigation.
Comey is a weasal
He's been covering their butts for years.
My faith in one of the most honorable law enforcement agencies in this country is gone. Lady justice is no longer blind folded. She is blind and being lead around by the highest bidder.
Comey has a lip lock on the Clintonistas bribery bank of butt. He really needs to be tried and convicted and put in the supermax prison in Florence ..... for LIFE !
Grrrrrrr....
She is guilty as hell, but I don't want to die !!!!
he requires long jail time for this. or a dirt nap. i’d be happy whatever.
WEASEL
It’s good to be a Democrat in Obamaland. Comey is a sleaze.....his brother is an accountant for the Clinton Foundation. I am waiting for Her Heinous to bring up Trump University and he can counter with the Clinton Foundation. H needs to point out that he wasn’t in Government service during any of the things about which she is complaining. NOBODY OWNS HIM. She, on the other hand, was handing out all sorts of ‘favors’ during her time as SOS. CORRUPTION IN THE HIGHEST OFFICES IN OBAMALAND.
Congress has a duty to put Comey on trial.
