MSNBC: FBI formally confirms its investigation of Hillary Clinton’s email server
In a letter disclosed Monday in a federal court filing, the FBI confirms one of the world’s worst-kept secrets: It is looking into Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server.
Why say this at all, since it was widely known to be true? Because in August in response to a judge’s direction, the State Department asked the FBI for information about what it was up to. Sorry, the FBI said at the time, we can neither confirm nor deny the existence of any investigation.
Now, in a letter dated February 2 and filed in court Monday, the FBI’s general counsel, James Baker, notes that in public statements and congressional testimony, the FBI “has acknowledged generally that it is working on matters related to former Secretary Clinton’s use of a private email server.”
Baker says the FBI has not, however, “publicly acknowledged the specific focus, scope or potential targets of any such proceedings.”

Nothing will come of this. At that level, the ordinary laws don't apply.
Uh, I think this does mean a big deal. There was a chance for the FBI to do preliminary investigation and say "nothing here." It's official now
. Either the White House is approving it or the FBI is defying the White House. There's no backing down now.
Someone certainly does not want Mz Clinton in the White House. Funny thing is, charging her over classified emails is the equivalent of getting Al Capone on tax evasion. The aggression against Libya and the Benghazi affair should be plenty to get her, and not a few others, indicted. Then again, that says more about so-called international law and "justice" than it says about her.
