For now, color me “skeptical.” The Clintons have gotten away with so much for so long, I’m not convinced that DOJ will do a damn thing.
I think the DOJ is verify but the love for the Clintons is definitely on a downward spiral. I think the FBI might just be fed up with all that Bubba and Clod have gotten away with.
Nothing is going to happen. Nothing.

Successful Clinton dodges for all occasions:
I dont recall.
We didnt do anything wrong.
This was fully covered weeks/ months/ years ago
We didnt know we did anything wrong
You can’t prove we did anything wrong
No one has any evidence that we did anything wrong.
My feeling is that if this thing reaches the point of actual indictment (or the very strong probability thereof), Hillary will have a “sudden recurrence of a serious medical problem” which will necessitate her withdrawal from the general election campaign and retirement from public life.
“No one” is interested in seeing her in jail. (Not referring here, of course, to you or me or any of the “little people”, as we do not count in these matters) The goal is just that she is put out of the way permanently so she can no longer influence either party or national politics.
The Democratic nominating convention would probably see some sort of reputation-protecting rear guard action fought by Clinton loyalists and cameo appearances by Bill and/or Chelsey (Hillary Clinton 2.0?)urging Democrats to fight for the values Hillary espoused.
Once the general election is over (”The Republic is saved!”), she will gradually recover and begin collecting huge fees as a public speaker (like husband Bill). The charges, if brought, will be negotiated down to a big fine and some sort of slap on the wrist measures, like loss of her security clearance, etc. akin to what General Petraus received. Lower level loyalists may or may not be so lucky. The Clintons will not care so long as they are safe.
The only fly in the ointment is if DoJ dallies. Should the indictment, if brought, come too late in the general election cycle, it will be impossible for the remaining Democratic campaigns to shift staff and other resources to effectively compete in the general election against the Republicans. In that case, Hillary might be compelled to campaign while under indictment. Normally, that would be fatal to a campaign. But, as you have pointed out, we are dealing with the Clintons here.
