The Washington Examiner reported 150 agents are said to be working on the criminal probe of Hillary Clinton and they are not going away anytime soon.

A former U.S. attorney told the Washington Examiner the FBI’s reported investigation of “public corruption” at the Clinton Foundation has been going on for months. It only made headlines on Monday because it was leaked in an effort to encourage witnesses to come forward and to put more pressure on Clinton. Apparently the FBI call it “shaking the tree.”

Joseph DiGenova was appointed by President Ronald Reagan and he said the FBI’s probe:

has reached such a proportion of the inquiry that it’s starting to sneak out.

There are now, I am told, 150 agents working on this case.

He said it was “a very unusually high number” of investigators to be working on one case.

On Monday it was reported the FBI expanded its investigation to include the alleged exchange of favors between the Clinton Foundation and the State Department leadership under Clinton.

The reports are also coming just days after the State Department released a controversial email that suggested Clinton had asked an aide to remove the classified markings from a document and “send it nonsecure.”

Florida Representative Ron DeSantis (R) questioned the email on Facebook.

He said:

To order that classified markings be removed so that classified information can be transmitted over an unclassified and unsecured server represents a stunning level of recklessness. A rank-and-file State Department employee would never have gotten away with pulling a similar stunt.

DiGenova said the Justice Department might be reluctant to bring charges against Clinton because of her political status but Attorney General Loretta Lynch would have “no choice” but to indict her in the face of enormous pressure from within the FBI.

He said the recommendations for prosecution would come in the form of a confidential memo from the FBI director to the attorney general but “the bureau will no doubt let it be known” that such a memo has been sent in order to put additional pressure on Lynch.

Things are not looking good for Hillary Clinton.
