FBI showing signs of mutiny ahead of election.

TL;DR:

Released documents regarding an investigation in the past in which Comey headed.

There was no order to release.

No prompt for them to do it either, a deadline nor a request (Freedom of Information Act).

In meetings, the Justice Department and senior F.B.I. officials agreed that making the Clinton Foundation investigation public could influence the presidential race and suggest they were favoring Mr. Trump. But waiting, they acknowledged, could open them up to criticism from Republicans, who were demanding an investigation.

They agreed to keep the case open but wait until after the election to determine their next steps. The move infuriated some agents, who thought that the F.B.I.’s leaders were reining them in because of politics.

Addendum Edit:

But F.B.I. agents, many of whom are strongly supportive of Mr. Comey and his approachable leadership style, have struggled to defend his decision. They acknowledge that he was in a bind, but say the backlash against the F.B.I. is unlike any in recent history.

Tonight the FBI did a doc dump on Twitter regarding the Presidential Pardon made by Bill Clinton to Marc Rich for tax evasion (and many other things).

According to WH Spokesman Josh Earnest:

"I've not spoke(n) to anybody who has any awareness of being consulted about that material before it was released," Earnest told reporters traveling with the president.

The Rich investigation did not lead to federal charges under Comey and the case was closed in 2005.
