Former President Donald Trump revived criticism of Hillary Clinton's handling of classified information amid an ongoing Department of Justice investigation into his own handling of federal records, many of which were classified.
As Trump spoke about Clinton's 2015 emails controversy at a Pennsylvania rally on Saturday, prompting members of the crowd to chant "lock her up."
Trump claimed that Clinton "set up a secret, illegal server to hide her family's pay-for-play schemes, crammed it full of classified information."
A video shows crowd members, many wearing pro-Trump merchandise, chanting "lock her up," popularized by his supporters in the run-up to the 2016 presidential election against Democratic nominee, Hillary Clinton.
While running against Clinton, Trump repeatedly focused on the controversy surrounding her use of a private email server during her time as secretary of state under President Barack Obama, from 2009 to 2013.
An FBI investigation concluded in 2016 that while Clinton and her aides were"extremely careless" in their handling of classified information, no "reasonable prosecutor" would pursue criminal charges.
Trump himself is currently being investigated by the Department of Justice over his handling of federal records.
In August, the FBI searched Trump's Mar-a-Lago residence in Florida and found 11 sets of classified documents. The Department of Justice had previously seized more than 700 pages of classified documents taken by Trump to Mar-a-Lago.
The Department of Justice is investigating whether Trump broke three federal laws, including the Espionage Act, by taking government records.
