Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, in an exclusive interview with Fox News that aired Wednesday, repeatedly declined to say whether the Justice Department might reopen the investigation into Hillary Clinton’s private email server. In the interview on "The Story with Martha MacCallum," Rosenstein said he would not comment on the FBI investigation into whether Clinton mishandled classified information, which was closed last summer without charges being filed. However, Rosenstein told MacCallum Wednesday he was dissatisfied with the “publicity surrounding the investigation,” not necessarily the investigation’s outcome. "I’ve never commented on the substance of the investigation and I’m not going to do that now," Rosenstein said. Rosenstein also declined to comment on whether he had reexamined the investigation while deliberating whether to fire Comey, nor would he say whether any Justice Department resources were devoted to the question of re-opening the investigation.
