Obama criticizes F.B.I. director: ‘We don’t operate on incomplete information"
U.S. President Barack Obama defended Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton on Wednesday and said investigations should not allow suggestions or innuendo to influence public opinion. "I do think that there is a norm that when there are investigations, we don't operate on innuendo, and we don't operate on incomplete information, and we don't operate on leaks,” Obama said in the interview with NowThis News, which was filmed Tuesday. The FBI said on Friday it had found new emails that might pertain to Clinton's use of a private server for government business while she was Obama's first secretary of state from 2009-13.
