FBI ignored key evidence in Clinton email investigation, DOJ watchdog claims

DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA, UNITED STATES, JUL 24 – The DOJ Office of Inspector General report reveals the FBI ignored key thumb drives with sensitive emails, undermining the investigation's thoroughness and raising national security concerns, Senator Grassley said.

  • A Justice Department watchdog report shows the FBI failed to investigate thumb drives during the Clinton email probe, highlighting investigative lapses.
  • Sen. Chuck Grassley and Sen. Ron Johnson pressed for declassification in 2020 and 2025, and Attorney General Pam Bondi subsequently declassified the annex at their request.
  • The annex reveals the drives were never opened despite draft memos, and Comey, McCabe, and Strzok failed targeted searches, according to the report.
  • Critics noted, Grassley said, adding the report reveals an extreme lack of effort and due diligence in the FBI’s investigation of Clinton’s email mishandling.
  • Absent further action, the DOJ watchdog recommends a thorough examination of thumb drives, while Comey faces a separate probe into his 2016 decisions.
