I didn't know this! Hillary is NOT the target of the FBI investigation.

Or, at least, she's never been named. From the Politico article below:

Rosen also asked whether Obama had ever discussed the Justice Department's investigation with Clinton, who has never been named a target of the probe.

The FBI is investigating the way material is classified. Hillary has never been the target of any FBI investigation. This has always been a GOP wet dream.

They're hoping for Fitzmas in 24 business hours--they're not going to get their wish.

When they printed the first article last July with the damning headline about Hillary being under FBI investigation. They later issued a correction, but it fell on deaf ears -- especially those of the GOP and later the BernieBros.

passages from who knows where that are supposed to show that an indictment is imminent.

After the 16th we won't have to put up with their crap anymore.

... the one about the NYT and its mostly unread/unreported retraction, I've cross posted this in GDP. I'm a really, really strong, forever Hillary supporter. And I thought the investigation was of her.... Sheesh!!!
