US House Speaker Requests Release of Findings in FBI’s Clinton Probe

US House of Representatives Speaker Paul Ryan has asked FBI Director James Comey to release all of the unclassified findings from his investigation into Hillary Clinton’s private server and email account.

WASHINGTON (Sputnik) — Ryan noted that despite the hearing by the House Oversight and Reform Committee earlier on Thursday, there are still more questions than answers regarding the Clinton FBI investigation.

"I have sent a letter to Director Comey requesting that he release all of the unclassified findings of this investigation," Ryan told reporters during a briefing on Thursday.

He also called for the US Director of National Intelligence to deny Clinton access to classified briefings even after she is named the Democratic Party’s presidential nominee at their convention later this month.

On Tuesday, FBI Director James Comey announced that the FBI would not recommend charges against Clinton based on a criminal probe into her use of a private server and email account. Comey said, however, that the FBI found evidence that Clinton and her staff were "extremely careless" in handling highly classified information.

On Wednesday, US Attorney General Loretta Lynch said she had accepted FBI’s recommendation to bring no charges against Clinton.
