Disgraced former Congressman Anthony Weiner and his faithful wife Huma Abedin have moved into a $3.3million New York City apartment owned by a top donor to Ms Abedin's boss, Hillary Clinton. The well-appointed luxury pad includes four bedrooms and three and a half bathrooms in the 12th floor of an exclusive building on Park Avenue. It costs an estimated $14,000 a month. The price begs the question -- is the couple staying there for free, or just getting a sweet deal? (Excerpt) Read more at dailymail.co.uk ...

Does Hillary! call him a ‘F&ck*ng J#wbag, I wonder? *SMIRK*

[pepsionice]

Neither one is really that wealthy....so I doubt they are paying $14,000 a month. More likely to be $7,000 and a deal if Weiner doesn’t win...they have to move out.l

[Diana in Wisconsin]

Oh, Sorry. It’s ‘F*cking Jew B@stard.” My bad. *SNORT*

I cannot WAIT until she’s our President! /s

The majority of American Jews have their heads up their asses. How they could cater to leftists and still look decent Americans in the eye is one of life’s mysteries.

Such a gulf between the Jews of Israel and the Jews of America.

Take a bow, Schmuckie Schumer!

Support Free Republic by betting on how long Weiner lasts! I bet he’s the next Mayor of New York ... and if not, $100 to Free Republic.

Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA) has been investigating Abedin’s activities as a paid consultant while she was still working for Hillary Clinton toward the end of her tenure.

In June, 2012, Abedin changed her employment status at the State Department from being a full time employee with the title of deputy chief of staff to being a “special government employee,” a type of contractor that allowed her to take on private clients in addition to her government job that included Hillary Clinton’s post-State Department transition team, the William J. Clinton Foundation, and Teneo Holdings, a firm run by Clinton confidante Doug Band.

Abedin’s change in employment status was exposed in a June article in Politico, which reported that Abedin and Weiner reported income of $490,000 in calendar year 2012, $360,000 of which represented a combination of both of their consulting incomes.

Grassley has been pressing the State Department and Abedin to answer a slew of questions over the arrangement ever since.

“It appears that Teneo may have been compensating Ms. Abedin for gathering information from government sources for the purpose of informing investment decisions of her clients - or in other words, political intelligence,” Grassley wrote in a June 13 letter. “This raises important questions about whether her 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.”

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

Huma was pocketing bigtime from Teneo Holdings, a firm run by Clinton confidante Doug Band. Teneo is also connected to MF Global--- as Jon Corzine presided over a billion dollar heist. Quoting from Teneo’s Web site: the firm is the “next chapter in strategic advisory.”

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

NOTE: 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 2012 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 Hum/Evnts. 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 MFG investors later sued JPMorgan bank for return of about $450M that MFG had transferred to the bank.

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

Sen Grassley needs 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 govt fraud, money laundering and other financial crimes.

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

L/E needs to examine Huma, Corzine's 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.

Payoff/buyout. Huma knows things about Hillary. Or else Hillary would have thrown her under the bus.

BTW, like his tenant Anthony Weiner, condo owner/donor Jack Rosen is no stranger to sex scandals. In 1999, he was hauled into court by a Russian model who said she’d had an affair with the married dad of two and that he was the father of her young daughter. Rosen first denied paternity but then stopped fighting the suit, and the judge gave the child — who is now in high school — Rosen’s surname.

Eh! Catholics vote for pro abort dems 50% consistently.

That is, people who call themselves catholic

And the American Medical Association is pro abortion

So, there’s plenty of senselessness to go around

[Venturer]

Exactly: Abedin could bury Hillary.

Hillary must keep her paid off , plus they have a relationship.

Ralph Kramden quote?

[American in Israel]

When Rome took over the Middle East it destroyed what is now Jordan and merged the Jews with the Edomites. History records that the Jews were exiled but no mention of the Edomites is made. That is because a lot of people who say they are jews are not. They are Edomites.

Know how to tell the difference?

Do they love, or hate God. Its a tell.

Ever met a liberal that loves God?

me either.

Everyone here seems to just ignore that Weiner still has $4.3 million in cash leftover from his re-election campaign account. He can still use this for any run for office.

Neither he nor Huma, as you say don’t have any money. He has no job; she’s taken extended leave of absence from Hillary.

Media is awed that he’s just sticking to the campaign. I say it is perfect logical he’s trying to convert that cash and a campaign is the best way to do it. He will never drop out.

[Liz]

Good point.

Neither one is really that wealthy....so I doubt they are paying $14,000 a month. More likely to be $7,000 and a deal if Weiner doesn’t win...they have to move out.l

Yeah... but Weiner has $3million in unspent campaign funds in an account. His new digs are 'campaign expenses'.

Wilson Misner, Jimmy Durante or Walter Winchell. No one’s sure.
