So Hitlery funneled State Dept secrets to Huma.... and where did they go from there?

Sen Charles Grassley (R-Iowa) has been pressing the State Department to answer questions over Abedin's lucrative govt job arrangement.

Judiciary Chair Grassley wrote in a June 13 letter, “It appears that Teneo Strategies may have been compensating Ms. Abedin for gathering information from government sources for the purpose of informing investment decisions of her consulting clients - or in other words, political intelligence. This raises important questions about whether Abedin's dual role was adequately disclosed to government officials who may have provided her information without realizing that she was being paid by private investors to gather information.”

Grassley's letter recounted:

<><> Abedin was among several key aides to Hillary Clinton that hosted email accounts on a private server in the 2016 presidential candidate's Chappaqua, New York home, in violation of federal records laws.

<><> Abedin allegedly sent or received more than 7,000 emails on her US government account that involved Teneo's Doug Band, a close confidante and travel companion of the globe-trotting Bill clinton;

<><> one email exchange involved Teneo's Doug Band pressuring Abedin to encourage her State Department boss, Hillary Clinton, to facilitate a White House appointment for one of his clients. Judith Rodin, then-president of the Rockefeller Foundation, "donated hundreds of millions of dollars to the Clinton Foundation," Mr. Band allegedly noted in his email to Ms. Abedin.

<><> email evidence allegedly suggests that Ms. Abedin and another Hillary aide, Cheryl Mills, colluded to find a way to ensure the US govt paid for Ms. Abedin's travel to and from New York."

<><> Abedin apparently falsified govt documents to pocket $33,000 tax dollars from the State Department for leave she said she hadn't used.

<><> multiple allegations received by Sen Grassley's Judiciary Committee indicated Abedin had actually taken leave during her time as a govt employee, casting doubt on whether Abedin should have received $33,000 in taxpayer money.

<><> allegations surfaced that the State Dept personnel rule was quietly bent to permit Abedin to collect her government paycheck while wielding her influence to the benefit of her other employers.

<><> Hillary Clinton jetted to Ireland with Abedin at her side for her last official trip before exiting the State Dept, during which Hillary attended an event hosted by a major Clinton Foundation donor that had been promoted by Teneo (for which Abedin then-served as a "consultant")

<><> Abedin's special employment status gave her heavy influence over Hillary Clinton's State Dept daily schedule and travel plans at the same time Abedin served as a senior adviser at Teneo, and performed other duties at the Clinton Foundation.

<><> NOTE: Abedin using information about Hillary's travel schedule in discussions w/ her clients, could be a serious breach of US ntl security, since even the calendar and travel plans of the Secy of State is considered classified information.

============================================

Abedin worked as a full-time staffer to Hillary Clinton January 2009-June 2012; she was then given a "special government employee" designation and took on roles at the Clinton Foundation and Teneo.That designation is designed to allow individuals who fill "an unmet government need for rare or unique expertise" to retain their private-sector positions while receiving compensation from the government.

Abedin is currently vice-chair of Hillary's presidential campaign committee.

Now U.S. intelligence officials are scrambling to contain damage from potentially hundreds of spy agency secrets in Hillary’s private emails...as questions mount over why DOJ has not yet opened a criminal investigation WRT mishandling mountains of classified information....actions far more egregious than ex-CIA Director David Petraeus.....who was prosecuted, and sentenced to two years probation, and a $100,000 fine.

Without Abedin's advice, Hillary's Presidential campaign could flounder quickly.

With her advice it is having some problems. Hard to deal with a very bad candidate.

Natural Born American Citizen. Parents lived here at the time. They carried her off to Saudi, but as soon as she turned 18, she got herself back here!

Same could be said for Valerie Jarret and countless Muslim Brotherhood members (I don’t even call them infiltrators, since they were knowingly welcomed in) of this administration.

I use jigs all the time in the shop. Should I call someone and apologize?

Wouldn’t she become a Citizen by marrying Weiner? From there everything was easy via the Clintons.

It’s amazing how much you can get away with if you are a Democrat and utterly brazen.

Was Weener just a useful idiot?

The weiner is a stealth cover to protect this traitor while she plies her trade.

I think losing Abedin could have disastrous consequences for Hillary's campaign. Abedin has done a lot to set up her public appearances and without that guidances, Hillary's campaign could run into trouble like what happened in 2008 (Hillary recovered later but it was effectively too late).

Right you are.

Huma is the only one that keeps Hillary from going full crazy in public. Huma controls all the meds.

Huma Abedin may be to Hillary what Valerie Jarrett is to Obozo.

The first person to so much as whispers a Huma investigation will silenced with Hillary's FBI file on them. If they're lucky, she's in a good mood and it's early morning before she's zonkered.

This cozy relationship between Mrs. Clinton, Mrs. Wiener (both of whom have shown a preference for not using their married names) and a bunch of other rich and/or powerful Ms’s raises the Sapphic question. I know that such rumors were rampant in Fayetteville about the time when she was teaching at the University of Arkansas after she moved into the Whitehut.

There has been a coup and few saw it.
