Congressman Andy Harris says that FBI Director James Comey has some explaining to do.

Almost two weeks ago the nation’s top law enforcement official announced the review of emails found on the computer of Anthony Wiener in connection with the investigation into the emails of Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton.

Then, just days ago Comey announced that the FBI found nothing that would cause the reopening of the investigation into Clinton.

WBAL reports that the Eastern Shore congressman said he doesn’t know what to make of it.

The Maryland Republican said that Comey needed to explain how the emails of Weiner’s wife and Clinton confidant Huma Abedin wound up on the unsecured computer.

He wondered, how that was not a significant breach of confidentiality.
