Despite the nearing Election Day, FBI has opened Pandora's Box with a daily line-up of leaks, rumors and investigations as it handles Hillary Clinton's email scandal, The Hill reported.
The revelations have not only led to conflicting stories in the media, but infuriated both Democrats and Republicans.
"It's total chaos," Matt Miller, a former Department of Justice (DOJ) spokesman said, according to The Hill.
Most Democrats believe that FBI Director James Comey's announcement about coming across new information in the email investigation was made to sway voters.
"You drop something like this in the middle of a presidential campaign, it puts the FBI into the middle of a partisan battle and generates leaks on all sides, between Republicans and Democrats, the FBI and the DOJ, FBI officials and their superiors," said Miller.
"It's a complete breakdown in the rules that govern these institutions. It's terrible for them. It's terrible for the campaigns and the election," he added.
Democrats are of the belief that Clinton still has strong chances of capturing the White house, the margin maybe very small.
Meanwhile, the FBI too has been divided over Comey's announcement, according to The Wall Street Journal.
FBI has also opened a preliminary inquiry into former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort's business and political dealings in Russia and Ukraine, according to NBC News.
Both Clinton and Trump campaigns are on their toes as what explosive revelations might surface next is highly unpredictable.
