This is getting ridiculous.

Let’s just agree on this and move on. I’m not interested in debating semantics over whether that functionally differs from saying they are investigating a crime.

That's good for you but I am interested in this discussion. Language matters; saying they are investigating a crime does make it sound like a crime occurred.

I don't need to prove that FBI investigations are crime-related. That's the presumed norm, not a claim requiring evidence.

If you claim otherwise, the burden of proof is on you.
