Full title.......Anthony Weiner and wife Huma move into luxury $3.3M condo owned by top Clinton donor... are they there for free or just getting a sweet deal?

dailymail.co.uk story | 8/13/12 / FR Posted by ColdOne

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 ...

The ruling liberal elite does what it wants, doesn’t work for its money, makes rules that it doesn’t follow, and $h!ts on the common folk.

Hillary and Huma are LOVERS WITH Bill and Anthony's OK and cover.

The Clinton Muslim Brotherhood plan is for Huma to be the first MUSLIM first lady of NYC, then off to be SENATOR, like her lover, Hillary, them maybe the Presidency....Anthony was just the WEINERMOBILE to get Huma to the first step!!

This is probably a payoff to Huma to keep quiet about what she knows about Hillary.

This goes along with her lucrative “job” as an independent contractor/advisor to the State Dept. while on maternity leave.

The Clintons know how to bribe people to keep their mouths shut.

Anthony Weiner and wife move into $3.3M Manhattan apt.

Weiner and Abedin moved into the pace shortly after they sold their Forest Hills condo. The apartment had been on the market for $3.285 million in the spring of 2011.

After quitting his Queens House seat amid a notorious sexting scandal, Weiner and beautiful, brainy spouse Huma Abedin, a top aide to Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, landed in the sprawling, 12th-floor Park Avenue trophy residence owned by Rosen Partners LLC, which is headed by close Clinton pal Jack Rosen, records show.

He has also contributed several thousand dollars to Weiner’s coffers, and is a top Obama bundler, donating more than $500,000 to the president’s re-election efforts.

Some Weiner-watchers are stunned that the pol, who gave up his $174,000 salary when he resigned, and Huma, who makes around $155,000 annually, can afford the posh pad at 254 Park Ave. South at East 20th Street.

“It’s a ridiculously expensive place,” said a top Democratic fund-raising source with deep ties to the Clintons.

“Everyone assumes they live there for free, thanks to a donor, a friend of Bill and Hillary, or even just someone with an empty place who is connected,” the source said.

But Hillary Clinton spokesman Philippe Reines insisted that Weiner and Abedin pay “market rate’’ for the pad.

“They are a two-income family and are more than capable of paying their market-rate rent,” he said, declining to disclose exactly what the couple pays.

The property came off the market last summer, after Weiner resigned and inked a deal to sell his modest, 875-square foot two-bedroom Forest Hills condo for $430,000.

Shortly after Weiner and his wife moved into the new place, records show, Abedin sold her Washington, DC, condo for $620,000. She had bought the place for $649,000 in 2006, taking out a $532,000 mortgage.

The Weiner family and their landlord say the arrangement is nothing special — an apartment found through standard means in exchange for a market rent... “The Weiner family was introduced to 254 Park Avenue South by a third-party broker,” Roxanne Donovan, spokeswoman for the building’s sponsor, said in a statement. (She declined to identify the broker.)

"...Wake up"

We're awake however, no one seems to be listening or willing to stand up.....The talking heads on the left and in the middle along with the MSM are already telling us Hillary Clinton is the choice of the Progressives/Socialists/Communists.....Why would Americans vote for another thoroughly corrupt politician...because they don't vote for their country, they vote for what they think will help them. The Clintons like the Obamas will never lift a finger to help anyone who can't help them.....arrogant to a fault and crooked.

the Clintoons are desperate to get the Weiner scandal OFF of the daily news

out of altruism toward the Clintoos?

NOT ON YOUR LIFE

The Weiner scandal, quite correctly, reminds everyone of the immorality of Bill Clinton and the totally political nature of the Billary marriage. The truth hurts and it hurts the Clintoons. Thus, Billary is seeking “help” for Weiner from every source of theirs they can ask.
