  • In a phone call to donors, Hillary Clinton said that her campaign had been on an "upward trajectory" until FBI Director James Comey released a letter stating the agency had discovered potentially relevant emails to its investigation of her private email server use. "[O]ur analysis is that Comey’s letter raising doubts that were groundless, baseless, proven to be, stopped our momentum," she said. Clinton did not accuse Comey of partisanship, however, in releasing the letter.
  • An apparent suicide bomber killed two U.S. service members and two U.S. contractors working at Bagram Airfield in Afghanistan. Sixteen other U.S. service members and one Polish soldier were wounded in the explosion. The Taliban claimed responsibility for the attack. Secretary of Defense Ash Carter issued the following statement expressing his condolences and warning those who carried out the attack: “I want to express my sincere condolences to the families of the fallen, and I want to reassure the loved ones of those injured that they are getting the best possible care. Force protection is always a top priority for us in Afghanistan, and we will investigate this tragedy to determine any steps we can take to improve it. … For those who carried out this attack, my message is simple. We will not be deterred in our mission to protect our homeland and help Afghanistan secure its own future.”
