The FBI is investigating Hillary Clinton's private email server out of of its headquarters in Washington, D.C., in an "unusual move," the New York Times reported.

"But given this inquiry’s importance, senior F.B.I. officials have opted to keep it closely held in Washington in the agency’s counterintelligence section, which investigates how national security secrets are handled."
Though Clinton's use of a private email address was not illegal and was permitted by State Department rules, the federal government has standards for how servers are built, how they are secured, and how their data is stored.

Clinton has insisted that she never sent or received classified information at the time that it was classified and there has been no evidence that she broke the law.

Haven’t thought about him in a long time.

The question now, do They want Hillary to stay-or go.
Let’s see ... the FBI is part of and administered by the Department of Justice. Anyone getting the hint yet?
Yep keep the investigation in d.c.at headquarters.
Easier to LIE and control those LIES.
Anyone trust this quota boys justice dept?
Where are people like “Anonymous” from “Primary Colors” fame, “Deep Throat”, Woodward, and Bernstein from the “All the President’s Men” days or defectors from Hillary’s camp that can leak the icky stuff? Someone has to spill at some point.
I see your point.
You got that right. All talk and no action GOP. Very nice hearings with absolutely zero results.
