Republicans are wasting no time keeping the FBI decision to recommend no charges against Hillary Clinton in a glaring spotlight -- a House committee plans to grill FBI Director James Comey Thursday.
The Republican-led House Oversight and Government Reform Committee will hear testimony starting at 10 a.m.
Also testifying will be Steve Linick, Department of State inspector general and I. Charles McCullough 3rd, intelligence community inspector general.
"The FBI's recommendation is surprising and confusing,” said Committee Chairman Jason Chaffetz, R-Utah.
“The fact pattern presented by Director Comey makes clear Secretary Clinton violated the law. Individuals who intentionally skirt the law must be held accountable,” he said Wednesday.
“Congress and the American people have a right to understand the depth and breadth of the FBI's investigation. I thank Director Comey for accepting the invitation to publicly answer these important questions."
