FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino said on Thursday that his office discovered evidence from former FBI Director James Comey’s tenure in a room that was “hidden from us,” as FBI officials have been forced to redirect assets.

“I wouldn’t call it hidden, but hidden from us at least and not mentioned to us, and then we found stuff in there and a lot of it’s from the Comey-era, and we are working our damndest right now to declassify,” Bongino told Fox News on May 29.
