FBI Director James Comey will be speaking to Congress Thursday morning and answering questions about his decision not to pursue charges against Hillary Clinton for her use of a private email server, despite labeling her actions as “extremely careless.”

He will be speaking on Capitol Hill to the House Oversight Committee, starting at 10 a.m. Eastern. CSPAN will have a live stream of the hearing, so you can watch it online.

The video will air at 10 a.m. Eastern on Thursday, July 7 at this link. 

Two days ago, Comey said that Clinton was careless in her use of a private email server for sending classified information. He also said that he would not recommend charges against her. Loretta Lynch then announced that she would not be filing charges against Clinton, based on the FBI’s recommendation.

Next Tuesday, Lynch will testify before the House Judiciary Committee about Clinton’s emails and her private meeting with Bill Clinton.

House Oversight Committee Chairman Jason Chaffetz said about the hearing with Comey: “Congress and the American people have a right to understand the depth and breadth of the FBI’s investigation.” Meanwhile, Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee Chairman Ron Johnson, in demanding a written explanation from Comey, said in a letter that he didn’t understand how Clinton’s actions could be extremely careless but not meet the standard of gross negligence.

“What is the difference, in the FBI’s view, between extreme carelessness and gross negligence? What set of facts would cause the FBI to recommend criminal charges under the gross negligence standard?”
