WASHINGTON (AP) -- The Latest on FBI Director James Comey's appearance Wednesday before the Senate Judiciary Committee.
FBI Director James Comey is strongly defending his decision to alert Congress that agents were revisiting the Hillary Clinton email investigation less than two weeks before the November election.
Comey tells the Senate Judiciary Committee that he concluded it would have been "catastrophic" to have concealed that development from Congress.
What led the FBI to revisit the investigation was the discovery of thousands of emails on a laptop belonging to the former congressman who was married to a top Clinton aide.
Comey says it made him -- in his words -- "mildly nauseous" to think he might've had an influence on the 2016 election, as many Democrats believe. But he says politics can't influence the FBI's decision-making.
Comey's comments Wednesday are his most extensive about his actions from October in the email case.
