Among the alleged leaks is reportedly a Wall Street Journal story about the FBI investigation into former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s private email server. McCabe stepped aside from his role as deputy director in January.

doesn't the FBI routinely brief the press AFTER an investigation is over? I mean, we all have seen local police, state police and yes, FBI agents talking to the press, usually on the courthouse steps after a trial ends. Here, no trial but it was announced there would be no trial. Further how can they call details released after the fact leaks?

fact the investigation, not complete, had been reopened....and then closed it with a nothingburger days before Election Day?

How to get around the obvious....Comey knew McCabe or someone in the FBI, Roger Stone knew who, was going to release the nothingburger so he tried to get in front of it.

The surprise disclosure that agents from the Federal Bureau of Investigation are taking a new look at Hillary Clinton’s email use lays bare, just days before the election, tensions inside the bureau and the Justice Department over how to investigate the Democratic presidential nominee.
