A government watchdog who played a central role in the Hillary Clinton email investigation during the Obama administration told Fox News that he, his family and his staffers faced an intense backlash at the time from Clinton allies – and that the campaign even put out word that it planned to fire him if the Democratic presidential nominee won the 2016 election.

Something similar happened at the UN. They hired a guy to investigate the corruption and misappropriation of funds that runs rampant throughout the UN's activities.
Then they fired his ass when he started looking into the wrong people.

Not surprising at all.
Do your job, get threatened to be fired.
Note that he says if the Clinton campaign had turned over the server as requested, there would have been no need to involve the FBI.
Very interesting.

This is something many of us have been trying to explain to the public since the story broke. This was a much bigger deal than the Clinton campaign and most of the media let on. When this guy said he'd be in Leavenworth for doing the same thing, he's not exaggerating. I've said that numerous times on this forum myself, and I believe that wholeheartedly. And I only had a Secret clearance. Being this irresponsible with Top Secret and SCI information and not getting charged set a very, very dangerous precedent. Comey even tried to say essentially "we're not saying this is ok, no one should take this as a precedent". That means she should have been charged.
Also, that is why so many of us are "obsessed" with her even though the election is over. It was never about the election. It's about protecting our national security information. That doesn't just go away because you run for office and lose.
