Attorney General Jeff Sessions says that he is open to more firings at the FBI in light of new information presented in an upcoming report from the Justice Department's inspector general, set to be released Thursday.
Sessions told the Hill that he thinks Inspector General Michael Horowitz's report on the FBI's handling of the Hillary Clinton email investigation "will be a lengthy report and a careful report.â€
“I think it will help us better fix any problems that we have and reassure the American people that some of the concerns that have been raised are not true," he continued. "If anyone else shows up in this report to have done something that requires termination we will do so."
The IG report is set to be released Thursday, on President Trump's birthday. It is expected to show "devastating wrongdoings" by former FBI Director James Comey and former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe.
Sessions' full interview with the Hill will go live Thursday morning.
