Hillary is doing everything she can to downplay the FBI investigation into her e-mail scandal, including calling it a “security review” rather than an investigation. But not so fast, says one judge — it’s an investigation all right, and a criminal one at that.

From The Daily Caller:

The FBI’s investigation into Hillary Clinton’s private email server is “criminal” in nature, U.S. District Court judge Emmet Sullivan said in a court filing on Tuesday.

Sullivan was responding to a plea from attorneys for former State Department information technology specialist Bryan Pagliano who asked that details of an immunity deal he made with the FBI to discuss Clinton’s server be kept secret.

“The privacy interests at stake are high because the government’s criminal investigation through which Mr. Pagliano received limited immunity is ongoing and confidential,” Sullivan wrote in the new order.
“In the Court’s opinion, the need for public access to Mr. Pagliano’s agreement with the government is minimal. Mr. Pagliano’s immunity agreement has not previously been disclosed. Mr. Pagliano and the government object to disclosure of the immunity agreement,” the judge added.

… Sullivan’s statement that the FBI’s investigation is criminal undermines Clinton’s insistence that the probe is a mere “security review.”

Try as Hillary might, she can’t make this go away. And calling it something else doesn’t change the reality of what it is.
