The latest release of FBI documents on the investigation of Hillary Clinton's emails has revealed what Donald Trump calls "felony corruption." According to the documents, FBI employees told investigators that State Department official Patrick Kennedy had pressured them to change their finding that one of the emails on her private server was classified, Reuters reports. FBI officials said that in a bid to protect Clinton, Kennedy discussed a "quid pro quo" deal in which the State Department would allow an increased FBI presence in Iraq in return for ruling that the information in the Benghazi-related email was unclassified. A roundup of coverage:
- The FBI and the State Department are pushing back against the allegations, saying there was no "quid pro quo" and the email remained classified, the Washington Post reports, though the agencies admit that the email and FBI slots in Iraq came up in the same conversation.
