The Federal Bureau of Investigation is likely to interview Hillary Clinton in the next few weeks about her use of a private email server while she was U.S. secretary of state and have already interviewed some of her aides, CNN reported on Thursday.
The nine-month investigation into whether laws were broken as a result of the server kept in her New York home has overshadowed Clinton's campaign to become the Democratic Party's candidate in November's presidential election.
With only a few states left to vote in primary elections, she retains a commanding lead over her rival, U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont.
More than 2,000 emails sent and received by Clinton while working as President Barack Obama's top diplomat include classified information, which the government bans from being handled outside secure, government-controlled channels.
Clinton has said she did not send or receive any information that was marked as classified and has accused the State Department and other government agencies of "over-classifying" her emails after a judge ordered them released to the public. She has said she expects to be exonerated by the FBI, a point her campaign staff echoed on Thursday.
"We are confident the review will conclude that nothing inappropriate took place," the campaign told CNN. The timeline in the CNN report appeared to contradict answers Clinton gave in an interview on Tuesday, in which she told MSNBC's Andrea Mitchell that neither she nor her representatives had yet been contacted by the FBI.

My guess is that she will be handled with kid gloves.
when they interview the bag, I hope she ain’t nowheres tard.
Of course she will, but I wonder if she will take the 5th? That might win her some points with the left wingers.
This is exactly why bernie is still in the race.
Will she take the 5th? She should. She won’t be able to dodge the questions and run the clock out like she does in hearings. And there won’t be any Democrats to run interference for her. She’s likely to get caught committing perjury ala Scooter Libby.
“what does it matter now anyway!” (after taking the 5th)
If it’s on CNN, then that means Democrats will see this.
Hillary is destroying the Democrat Party.
This is the best year I’ve had since I was a kid!
It will be fun watching her take the Fifth.
It's fantasy but I wish they'd use these:
It was disgusting that right after the Gowdy hearing ended she was high-fiving her friends in the chairs behind her. Right in front of the parents of the victims of Benghazi. Terrible judgement. I half expected someone to hand her a cocktail.
Lets review past history on this. Nothing happened. Zero! So what do most of us expect on this so called email probe. Nothing! Nothing again! WTF
Exactly. This is Kabuki theater. She has a criminal record a mile high going back decades and she is running for President. Why would laws suddenly now apply to her? It’s a big charade.
“My guess is that she will be handled with kid gloves”
Her Team of degenerate handlers and advisors have probably had the list of questions to bone up on for a month.
This has been a long, slow, cover-up.
Having been in many depositions as a plaintiff or a civil defendant, I know a little bit about them. And, I can tell you that they don’t have to be hard on her. They will ask her questions prepared long in advance and her problem is going to be she is damned if she does answer and damned if she doesn’t. They (Comey et al) already know the answers. The question is “will she be stupid enough to lie under oath about espionage”? Her husband lied under oath about a stain on a dress and paid a pretty big price for that. I haven’t given up on our judicial system completely like most freepers have so I am predicting she does get indicted and Obama will pardon her when he walks out the door.
The problem with Obama pardoning her, and why he may not, is he loses all his leverage against the Clintons when he does.
She has something on Obama. Don’t anybody here tell me our current gov’t isn’t corrupt.
Her husband lied under oath about a stain on a dress and paid a pretty big price for that.
Really? I didn't notice. He's still a rock-star to Democrats.
