U.S. Attorney General Loretta Lynch says she will accept the recommendations of career lawyers and FBI agents looking into whether Hillary Clinton mishandled classified information when she used a private email server as Secretary of State.

The Justice Department announced Lynch's decision after Lynch met with former President Bill Clinton on her plane at the Phoenix airport on Monday. Lynch described the meeting as purely social, but this morning, presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump tweeted, "Does anybody really believe that meeting was just a coincidence?"

Jesse Holland of the Associated Press and Julie Mason of Sirius Radio discuss the news of the week with Here & Now's Robin Young.
