Hillary Clinton's campaign responded favorably Tuesday to the FBI's announcement that it would not recommend any charges against the former secretary of state in the investigation into her use of a private email server during her time at Foggy Bottom.

"We are pleased that the career officials handling this case have determined that no further action by the Department is appropriate," Clinton spokesman Brian Fallon said in a statement. "As the Secretary has long said, it was a mistake to use her personal email and she would not do it again. We are glad that this matter is now resolved."


While FBI Director James Comey said that he would not advise Justice Department prosecutors to pursue the case, he levied specific and pointed language at Clinton and her staffers during his morning announcement.

"Although we did not find clear evidence that Secretary Clinton or her colleagues intended to violate laws governing the handling of classified information, there is evidence that they were extremely careless in their handling of very sensitive, highly classified information," Comey said.
