If the timing / content of Grassley's letter to John Kerry about Huma Abedin is more than a coincidence, it is sheer political brilliance on Grassley's part.

Problem is the MSM will refuse to make this a story. And if the media doesn’t cover it...it can’t be very important.

The MSM are the single biggest problem Republicans have.

For all we know, Huma Weiner is still at the beck and call of the Clintons, doing God knows what behind the scenes.

Glad to see this story—what an incredible slap in America’s face it would be to have the “First Lady (spit) of New York” be Abedin-—MUCH worse than having a pervert as it’s mayor.

Perhaps it’s time for people to scrounge up some real dirt on the other enemies of America—the Media!

It works both ways.

The MSM are the single biggest problem Republicans have.

That's mostly correct, kjo, and one of the four most horrendous problems afflicting America:

1.) A morally and intellectually lazy, complacent, and in many cases willingly deluded citizenry.

2.) A Marxist-Islamist, thoroughly anti-American president and Executive branch.

3.) Islamic jihad.

4.) An essentially Marxist, thoroughly anti-American "free" press.

Other than that, everything is coming up roses.

same thing she did at state. Working for Clinton and OB, the heroes of Benghazi, she’s their ambassador to AQ, brotherhood and Allah knows who. They are determined to be allies with the very people who kill us and want to kill more of us.

If you remember the old communist manifesto about how to infiltrate and take over the US without firing a shot, well look around now and some shots have been fired too.

Good afternoon, NSA. When you gather the communiques WRT financial deals Huma and the Clintons made with enemies of the USA, please make sure to send copies to the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Thank you.

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

Sen Charles Grassley (R-Iowa) is probing longtime Hillary Rodham Clinton aide’s employment status, asking how Huma Abedin got a sweetheart deal as a private six-figure consultant while at the State Department. Abedin is married to former Rep. Anthony Weiner, who’s in the NYC mayoral race. The two hauled in as much as $350,000 in outside income on top of Abedin’s $135,000 government salary after Weiner quit Congress over a sexting scandal.

Abedin was assigned “special government employee” status, and was able to haul in cash as a private contractor. One of her clients was Teneo Holdings, a consulting firm founded by Bill Clinton aide Doug Band.

Quoting from Teneo’s Web site, which calls the firm the “next chapter in strategic advisory,”

NOTE: Last Dec, a former MF Global employee accused former president Bill Clinton of collecting $50,000 per month through his Teneo advisory firm in the months before MFG careened towards its Halloween filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, reports Human Events.

Bill Clinton is the chairman of Teneo's advisory board.

Teneo was hired by MF Global’s former CEO Jon S. Corzine to improve his image and to enhance his connections with Clinton’s political family, said the employee, who asked that his name be withheld because he feared retribution, according to HE. The Teneo contract with MF Global lasted at least five months, the souce said. “The board cancelled it after Corzine resigned.”

The source, who is no longer associated with MF Global, said Teneo is a dual-track company with one side devoted to merchant and investment banking and the other side set up to provide image and strategy consulting services.

The trustee for investors later sued JPMorgan bank for return of about $450M that MFG had transferred to the bank.

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

They need to mobilize the Bank Secrecy Act---in which banks are required to establish, implement and maintain programs designed to detect and report suspicious activity indicative of money laundering and other financial crimes.

The Bank Secrecy Act was enacted to protect the public from harm by identifying and detecting money laundering from criminal enterprises, terrorism, tax evasion or other unlawful activities.

L/E needs to examine Corzine and Clinton's bank accounts

<><> Joint bank accounts might be used to facilitate the transfer of of govt funds. MFG monies may pay for personal and private expenses, credit cards, real estate sunsidies and vehicle purchases.

<><> To cover their tracks, fake invoices might be created to show that money deposited into accounts was being used for legitimate investment purposes.

The scheme might be advanced by issuing phony statements of payments from financial sources that actually covered the transfer of funds for MFG insiders own use.

<><> L/E is directed to get ahold of: (1) copies of MFG checks, (2) wire transfers, (3) account statements, (4) invoices, (5) bills, (6) delivery tickets, (7) correspondence including e-mail, contracts, loan agreements, and, (8) any other books or records. L/E should also explore (a) monies paid to brokers, sub-brokers, (b) family members, (c) mortgage brokers, (d) financial managers, and, (e) real estate agents, brokers, and developers.

<><> L/E should scrutinize MFG bank accounts for suspicious activites: (A) large deposits, (B) funds transferred from one account into another, (C) frequent requests for withdrawals.

The most insidious power of the media, is the power to ignore.

I don’t disagree with your diagnosis. At the same time, since we know it’s a reality, it cannot be allowed to de-energize or demoralize. Best to acknowledge it, keep our heads down, and trudge ahead.

Rush Limbaugh’s harping on this has become a bit tiresome and it is not helpful.

it's called the Spike, and it's also a very good book...

The Spike is a 1980 spy thriller novel by Arnaud de Borchgrave and Robert Moss (New York: Crown Publishers, 1980). Drawing on de Borchgrave's experience as a jet-setting Newsweek journalist and conservative Washington insider, it tells the story of a radical '60s journalist, Bob Hockney, who stumbles upon a Soviet plot for global supremacy by 1985. When he tries to expose the web of blackmail, sex and espionage, he's hamstrung by his editors' liberal media bias.

In the news world, to "spike" a story means to cancel its publication. De Borchgrave and Moss envision a scenario in which the KGB exploits the attitudes of the unsuspecting Western media, which was allegedly more interested in unmasking CIA agents than stopping the Soviets, threatening to thwart Hockney's big scoop.

The best-selling book was marketed not only as a spy thriller but an expose of real-life Washington. Time called the book a roman a clef for its fictionalized versions of real people and organizations, including Zbigniew Brzezinski and the radical left-wing magazine Ramparts.

Thanks for the tip on ‘Spike’. It’s what the editors of Newsweak did to Isikoff on the BJ-Monica story, and Drudge scooped them on, I believe.

Kerry will simply ignore the letter by saying he will respond in due course. (Yawn)

Bachman didn’t get a response either and that was more than a year ago.

Democrats have learned they can pretty much ignore Republican letters, requests for information, and even deadlines (See Holder.) without any retribution.

“…the Department’s Deputy Chief of Staff, Huma Abedin, has three family members – her late father, her mother and her brother – connected to Muslim Brotherhood operatives and/or organizations. Her position affords her routine access to the Secretary and to policy-making.”

Again, according to the New York Times, Abedin quietly resigned as Hillary’s Deputy Chief of Staff in the same month that Bachmann wrote that letter. Yet, Abedin’s defenders operated under a premise that said she never did.

Huma's security clearance might have changed - but none of the people who were her 'defenders' knew she had resigned OR that her security level had changed? Whoa - that's interesting. And scary.
