Hillary Clinton called out former FBI Director James Comey Thursday following the Inspector General report that revealed his use of personal emails to conduct official FBI business.

Clinton tweeted:

The tweet came in response to a tweet by Politico reporter Kyle Cheney:

The IG report found that Comey was “insubordinate” and that his use of personal emails was inappropriate.

The OIG found that former Director Comey was insubordinate when he intentionally concealed from DOJ his intentions regarding the July 5, 2016, announcement and instructed his subordinates to do the same. The FBI does not condone insubordination at any level and will institute training to ensure compliance with policy and the chain of command, as appropriate.

The report also “found that, given the absence of exigent circumstances and the frequency with which the use of personal email occurred, Comey’s use of a personal email account for unclassified FBI business to be inconsistent with Department policy.” (RELATED: Giuliani: ‘Comey Really Has A Chance Of Being Prosecuted’)
