WASHINGTON (AP) — Huma Abedin, a longtime aide to Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Rodham Clinton, testified Friday before the House committee investigating the deadly 2012 attacks in Benghazi, Libya, as the panel faced fresh criticism from Republicans and Democrats about the purpose of its inquiry. Abedin met behind closed doors for what was expected to be several hours focused on the Sept. 11, 2012, attacks on the U.S. facilities that killed four Americans, including Ambassador Chris Stevens. Clinton herself is scheduled to appear before the panel on Thursday in a widely anticipated public hearing. The decision by the GOP-led panel...

Citizens United ended up finding an email with the redacted address, then put it up online. The email is probably from the list of redacted emails from Hillary Clinton’s clintonmail.com server and has to do with Cornell’s invite to get Clinton to speak at commencement in 2013. Here’s a screencap of the email in question.Obviously we don’t know if Abedin was sent any classified documents or even used it on...

That Hillary Clinton aide Huma Abedin had her fingers in multiple financial pots — even while still high up in the State Department — is no secret. But the full extent of Abedin’s blurring of roles is coming to light. This summer, The Washington Post revealed that, at one point, Abedin — unusually granted “special government employee” status — was getting paid four different ways: from the taxpayers for her State work, from the Clinton Foundation, as political adviser to Hillary and by the Clinton-allied firm Teneo Holdings. The Washington Times reported last week how Huma’s hats came together in...

But Rodriguez brings some personal baggage to his role as Abedin’s counsel ... Before joining Bryan Cave, Rodriguez served as deputy assistant secretary at Hillary Clinton’s State Department; then he was...
