The third event he listed was former FBI Director James Comey's decision to hold a July 2016 press conference where he said Clinton hadn't committed crimes but had been 'extremely careless.' Then he held a second press conference announcing the investigation was being reopened after authorities uncovered additional emails on disgraced former Rep.

He also referenced Bill Clinton's infamous June 2016 meeting with then-AG Lynch on a Phoenix airport tarmac in 2016. Clinton ultimately apologized and called it a 'mistake.' One was Clinton's email scandal and how it 'unfolded' – a comment that could encompass elements from Clinton's decision to maintain a private email server in her home, to her decision to have her team delete thousands of 'personal' emails, to her own public explanations that the candidate would offer.

I wish things had turned out differently where we really had more cleanup work than we had done,” said Myers, who worked at the smelter for 17 years. But he remained disappointed the remediation plan being used won’t clean residential yards unless they contain more than 250 parts per million of arsenic - a level that Myers and other residents have said is arbitrary and still unsafe.
