Is the FBI waiting for Hillary to win the nomination to snatch it from her with their efforts to

This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by Cha (a host of the Hillary Clinton group).

derail her like what they have been trying to do since 1990? It is no secret that the FBI GOP holdovers have been after her and Bill for sometime. They would love to be after Obama but he is so clean it would be a waste of their time.

The worst Hillary did was ignore guidelines, guidelines that it was in her power as SoS to change if she felt like doing so.

She is being held to account in the RWNM for things she did at State that weren't disallowed until after she had left State.

They would have to indicted dozens of people, and they can't because there is NOTHING CRIMINAL HERE and NO CRIMINAL INTENT. So please, enough silly talk about "indictments". That's just bullshit nonsense.

Stop worrying. The FBI is mainly involved to look at whether important information was captured through hacking. It is about national security issues, so they have to do an inquiry. But even if that happened, it doesn't mean Hillary, or COLIN POWELL, or any of the MANY people who used private email and devices ever did anything criminal or with any kind of criminal intent. Of course they didn't, to include the private server. NO CRIMINAL MATTER HERE, PERIOD! Loretta Lynch isn't going to be bringing forth any indictments over this email thing. What they are going to do is say rules should have been clearer, equipment and procedures better, judgement with regard to private devices and accounts should have been better, and now we are implementing clearer guidelines and better equipment. THERE IS NOTHING CRIMINAL.

So let it sink.

The FBI is a law enforcement agency and law enforcement agencies can't indict anyone, ever. The FBI would turn over any evidence they have to the Justice Department, headed by Attorney General Loretta Lynch (Obama appointee). FBI Director Comey (nominated by President Obama) works under the direction of the Attorney General.
I find it highly unlikely that a Democratic Attorney General would issue an indictment against a Democratic presidential candidate in an election year.
Note that Donald Trump's Trump University civil trial has been delayed until after the election.
