Former FBI Director James Comey was back on Capitol Hill today to answer questions behind closed doors on the Hillary Clinton email investigation and the FBI's handling of possible ties between Russia and the Trump presidential campaign.

He also defended his role in the FBI's investigation of Michael Flynn, the president's former National Security adviser.
