Trump claims FBI gave Clinton immunity in email investigation

Donald Trump suggested Thursday that Democratic rival Hillary Clinton was "probably" given immunity to talk to the FBI for their investigation into her emails.

During a rally in Bedford, N.H., Trump told supporters that Clinton likely got the same treatment as five other staffers who received immunity in exchange for discussing the emails, including chief of staff Cheryl Mills and Bryan Pagliano, who set up her private server. He dubbed the group the "FBI Immunity Five."

"You saw what happened about taking the Fifth Amendment, and her ringleaders getting immunity deals," Trump told supporters. "We'll call them really the FBI Immunity Five."

"They gave so much immunity there was nobody left to talk to. There was nobody left, except Hillary," Trump said. "They probably gave her immunity, too. Do you think Hillary got immunity? Yeah, she had the immunity. She had something."

In recent campaign events, Trump has focused almost exclusively on the former secretary, talking specifically about the speaking fees Bill Clinton received from groups that were lobbying the U.S. government and the State Department.
