FBI Director James Comey recently broke years of precedent by explaining publicly, in minute detail, why the FBI would not charge Sec. Hillary Clinton. Unfortunately for Director Comey and the Department of Justice, Sen. Elizabeth Warren was paying close attention.
Comey explained his decision in Sec. Clinton’s case by declaring "the American people deserve those details in a case of intense public interest." In a recent letter, Sen. Warren responded by demanding the "same level of transparency" around the Wall Street crash.
If FBI Director Comey is willing to spend hours publicly detailing the ins and outs of an investigation, surely we should start with the failure to prosecute the bankers who crashed the economy, cost countless Americans their jobs and homes, and stole millions of dollars out of Americans’ pockets.
Stand with Sen. Warren: Tell the FBI Director and Justice Department to explain the failure to prosecute bankers.
