Blames husband Weiner for failing to notice extra $30K payment
Federal investigators formally investigated top Hillary Clinton aide Huma Abedin for the crime of embezzlement after confirming she took a “Babymoon” vacation and maternity time at the State Department without expending her formal leave, resulting in thousands of dollars of pay she wasn’t entitled to receive, The Washington Times has learned.
The probe also gathered evidence she filed timesheets charging the government for impermissible overtime and excessive hours after she converted from a fulltime federal employer to a State Department contractor. Those timecards were filed during a period of time that remains under investigation over questions about possible conflicts of interest, documents gathered by the State Department inspector general show.
Ms. Abedin, who served as a deputy chief of staff to Mrs. Clinton from 2009 thru late 2012, told investigators she hadn’t noticed she had received a $33,000 lump sum payment — about a third of which investigators determined was improper — when she left the State. She suggested her husband, the disgraced former congressman Anthony Weiner, failed to let her know.
“My husband handles all the finances in our household,” she told investigators during a recorded interview in October 2014.
She said she only learned of the payment after being contacted by investigators two years after her departure. “I did ask my husband to look up our bank statements, and we did have a deposit,” she said during her interview.
She also acknowledged it was likely she did not fill out the required form when she went on a two-week vacation to Europe in 2011 while she was pregnant — a trip she called a “Babymoon” in emails and her interview.

Brian Pagliano, Hillary’s personal IT guy—paid w/ Clinton funds——remains a State Dept tax-paid “contractor”-—working on “mobile and remote computing functions,” according to a State Dept spokesman.
Gotta give it to her: Hillary always makes sure her “helpers” are paid well-—by taxpayers (/snix).
Just wondering....who else exited state but is still collecting tax dollars as State Dept “contractors”?
<><> Huma Abedin,
<><> Huma’s husband?
<><> Cheryl Mills?
<><> Cheryl mills’ live-in David Domenici?
<><> Chelsea Clinton?
<><> Chelsea’s husband?

Demand Congress send you all available information on State Dept contractors at once.
Remember---when official documents are falsified---that is the method used to cover-up larger crimes.
Amen...Thanks Liz!
The biggest and best grifter in the land...
Would you let a weiner handle your money?
Welllll - in our extended family there are situations similar to this - one or the other takes charge of the family’s finances, and as long as everything is going well, the other spouse has little reason to question or be suspicious, or EVen knows much. When there’s a reason, they ask!
The OTHer spouse may be ‘in charge’ of other parts of their life.
Some of our 4 daughters live so differently from what they saw here.
So be it.
Exactly, she filled out the time sheet, she knew if it was correct or not.
