Full Title "White House calls FBI probe into Clinton's classified emails a 'criminal investigation' – to glee of Republicans – on the same day Obama endorses her"

Barack Obama's spokesman described the FBI's probe into Hillary Clinton's classified email scandal as a 'criminal investigation' on Thursday, less than an hour after the president endorsed his embattled former secretary of state to succeed him.

Josh Earnest told reporters during a White House press briefing that Obama was committed to keeping his hands off the investigation, trusting career investigators and prosecutors to follow evidence wherever it leads.

Yes they’re investigating the criminal Hillary

[ronnie raygun]

We need a commission comprised of military men and women to go after these cretans

[ImJustAnotherOkie]

Just another one of leaks that were promised from the FBI as a result no prosecution.

[Robert DeLong]

I hear it is a very strong criminal investigation at that.

[struggle]

Either this is complete message incompetence or they have a purpose for doing it. Unka Joe and Fauxcahontus!!

[JPJones]

So Obama just endorsed a candidate that’s under criminal investigation...?

LOL

[Robert DeLong]

White House press secretary Josh Earnest insisted that the endorsement wouldn't be interpreted inside the FBI as a signal to let her off the hook.

Right, and if you believe that then I have a bridge in Brooklyn to sell you.

Exactly ... what’s the problem ?

[greatvikingone]

Does the FBI do anything other than ‘criminal’ investigations?

[jersey117]

They waited for Obama to endorse to leak it.

[Col Frank Slade]

They mean that it is criminal that anyone would investigate Hillary !

[EagleUSA]

“..So Obama just endorsed a candidate that’s under criminal investigation...?”

Totally deliberate to put the pressure on the FBI and AG to not prosecute the CRIMINAL HILLARY. Another IN YOUR FACE AMERICA -— by the criminal endorsing the criminal. And the GOPe continues to fiddle while America burns.

The first leak was a bout 3 weeks ago.

Jeopardy and Wheel of Fortune, US Government edition.

[Joe Bfstplk]

This slip of the lip may require an earlier pardon than was anticipated.

[Jeff Chandler]

to the glee of Republicans

No bias there.

[tinyowl]

That endorsement was damning with faint praise if I ever heard it. "She's got a lot of heart and experience, no one will work harder " etc. Total damnation. All harmless intellectual fluff, moves no one.

If I'm Obama, a Trump presidency makes me more powerful - highlights me more, gives me something to grip against.

The headline threw there for a bit. With the war on all things white I figured they had now banned the “W”. All things white would now be referred to as “hite”.
