Bernie Sanders may be keeping silent on Hillary Clinton's email scandal, but his supporters certainly aren't.

FBI Director James Comey announced on Tuesday that the agency would not recommend criminal charges against Clinton for her use of a private email server as Secretary of State.

Comey's announcement immediately provoked the fury of Sanders supporters on Twitter:

After hearing #Comey statement: ALL AMERICANS-regardless of party- should be outraged @FBI are NOT recommending indictment#ClintonAffluenza

You know who is NOT in a trial for fraud or was under @FBI investigation, the most honest candidate for @POTUS #Bernie Sanders #FeelTheBern

Undisclosed source is telling me today's events were expected because it was widely known Clinton had one of these. pic.twitter.com/ZVAv2EzlFQ

CNN compiled tweets from some of Sanders' most vocal supporters, including some famous figures:

I guess if you are rich and have political power like @HillaryClinton not even the FBI can touch you ?? #BernieOrBust #StillSanders

A representative for the Sanders campaign reportedly said Sanders will not suspend his campaign in the wake of Comey's announcement.

As of Tuesday evening, the Vermont senator did not personally address the FBI's announcement.
