Former South Carolina Rep. Trey Gowdy suggested that the FBI gave preferential treatment to Hillary Clinton's campaign in 2016 when advising the presidential candidates on how to deal with the threat posed by foreign actors.
During a Sunday interview on Fox News, Gowdy referenced how the campaigns of both Clinton and then-candidate Donald Trump received counterintelligence "defensive" briefings, but claimed they were not the same. Gowdy said the FBI provided "two different kinds of defensive briefings to candidates depending on who you like and who you don't," and coupled with how the FBI withheld transcript material from the FISA court, "then your bias begins to impact the investigation."
Prior to Gowdy's assertion Sunday, there had not been any indication that Trump's briefing was different than Clinton's.
