It Could Only Be Part of This Year's Circus

Weiner probe.

...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.

Where They Stop, Nobody Knows

Huma Abedin told FBI agents in an April interview that she didn’t know how to consistently print documents or emails from her secure Dept. of State system. Instead, she would forward the sensitive emails to:

• Her personal Clinton.com email address
• Her personal yahoo.com address
• Her email linked to husband Anthony Weiner

Abedin said, according to FBI documents, she would then access those email accounts via webmail from an unclassified computer system at the State Dept. and print the documents, many of which were classified and top secret, from the largely unprotected webmail portals.

Clinton did not have a computer in her office on Mahogany Row at the State Dept. so she was not able to read timely intelligence unless it was printed out for her, Abedin said. Abedin also said Clinton could not operate the secure State Dept. fax machine installed in her Chappaqua, NY home without assistance.

This is the sloppy operation that you think of as one of the most (if not THE most) sensitive national security information agencies in the entire world.

Time to stop blaming leaks on the Russians.

Jesus wept.

/ This information was reported last month. I wonder why Donald Trump didn't use it in the debates.

Weiner Devices

Federal law enforcement officials said Friday that the new emails uncovered in the closed investigation into Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server were discovered after the F.B.I. seized electronic devices belonging to Huma Abedin, an aide to Mrs. Clinton, and her husband, Anthony Weiner.

Do they include a picture of the Weiner?

Huma Abedin may be done with Anthony Weiner, but the feds are just getting started. Less than one month after Hillary Clinton’s longtime aide announced that she had separated from her husband, the Daily Mail reported this week that the disgraced congressman had once again been exchanging explicit text messages with a stranger—this time, a 15-year-old girl. Now, the F.B.I. and the New York Police Department have reportedly launched an investigation into Weiner’s relationship with the minor. On Thursday, prosecutors from the office of U.S. attorney Preet Bharara issued a subpoena for the former politician’s cell phone and other records, CNN reports, citing law-enforcement officials.

[...]

Weiner allegedly began messaging the girl in January, and the inappropriate relationship continued until July. According to the Daily Mail, the 52-year-old Weiner, who recently ran unsuccessfully for mayor of New York City, allegedly shared role-play and rape fantasies with the minor.

[...]

In a statement issued to the Daily Mail, Weiner said that he has “likely been the subject of a hoax,” but added, “I have repeatedly demonstrated terrible judgement about the people I have communicated with online and the things that I have sent. I am filled with regret and heartbroken for those I have hurt.”

The latest sexting scandal is Weiner’s fourth in the last five years.

Jesus, get that man some help.  Or a cell.

Another Distraction for Hillary

Investigators with the State Department issued a subpoena to the Bill, Hillary and Chelsea Clinton Foundation last fall seeking documents about the charity’s projects that may have required approval from the federal government during Hillary Clinton’s term as secretary of state, according to people familiar with the subpoena and written correspondence about it.

The subpoena also asked for records related to Huma Abedin, a longtime Clinton aide who for six months in 2012 was employed simultaneously by the State Department, the foundation, Clinton’s personal office, and a private consulting firm with ties to the Clintons.

[...]

There is no indication that the watchdog is looking at Clinton. But as she runs for president in part by promoting her leadership of the State Department, an inquiry involving a top aide and the relationship between her agency and her family’s charity could further complicate her campaign.

Good thing she's a robot. Running for president in the midst of a federal investigation into her use of a private email server while Secretary of Defense, demands to produce her speeches to Wall Street, and now this, would be taxing for a human. Her crown may be tilting.
