Apparently the FBI thought he'd done something wrong too, because they called up the board to start an investigation but they didn't have anything.

The FBI doesn't investigate things like this on their own, and they definitely do not announce them in the press. The questions you should be asking are (1) who called in the FBI and has the clout to get them to open an investigation into something that obviously has 0% chance of being a federal felony-level crime worth the FBI's time, and (2) who then leaked that 'investigation' to the press?

The FBI is not mentioned in that tweet. We don't need to telephone game anonymous leaks that are already almost certainly self-serving propaganda.

Sorry, the SDNY. They do do things on their own. I expect the people they called leaked it.
