Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) on Sunday backed calls for FBI Director James Comey’s resignation, sharply criticizing the way he handled Hillary Clinton’s email investigation during the presidential campaign.

And it is interesting that he is not doing investigations about the possible ― possible ties between Trump’s campaign and the Russians.”Want more updates from Amanda Terkel?
