Breaking: FBI to scour 650,000 emails on Weiner's laptop; thousands may be tied to Clinton's server

Federal agents are preparing to scour roughly 650,000 emails contained on the laptop of former Rep. Anthony Weiner to see how many relate to a prior probe of Hillary Clinton’s email use, as metadata on the device suggests there may be thousands sent to or from the private server that the Democratic nominee used while she was secretary of state, according to people familiar with the matter.

The review will take weeks at a minimum to determine whether those messages are work-related emails between Huma Abedin, a close Clinton aide and the estranged wife of Mr. Weiner, and State Department officials; how many are duplicates of emails already reviewed by the Federal Bureau of Investigation; and whether they include either classified information or important new evidence in the Clinton email probe, which FBI officials call “Midyear.”

650,000? He must get some serious spam.

Goodbye Hillary. Huma has your e-mail password and likely your “deleted” e-mails.

If it wasn’t for that stinking perv Weiner, you may have gotten away with it.

They got permission from The Weiner to look at his device (no pun intended).

When it comes to Anthony Weiner, the jokes write themselves.

What the hello is going on? 650,000 emails. Everything you wanted to know is there. Wonder if the Whitewater files are there too?

650,000? Heck, Jimmy Hoffa's body may be in there among the emails.

If Huma was printing them out at home, maybe the NYPD & FBI should ask the neighbors if they saw an unusual number of these in the neighborhood.

Next question which arises is, at one page per email, 650,000÷500 sheets per ream = 1,300 reams, where are those 1,300+ reams of printed emails?

You can bet that according to Lynch they need a warrant. And other to obtain one she will want the FBI to agree to only look for one specific thing and to return or destroy the rest.

And you can bet that there are hundreds of entities that don’t want those emails exposed. Politicians, Media, and companies, and others. It would be a good guess that Lynch is one of them. They are going to fight tooth and nail to greatly limit this being exposed. They may even throw Hillary under bus to cover up the rest of it.

Their spam filters must really suck. I’d probably have a mailbox like that if my spam filtes weren’t pretty aggressive because I have had the same email address for over 20 years.

I had an outlook PST file that was about 200 GB in size, and it was a slow as molasses working with that thing.

Surprisingly (and if my math is right), that's only 2.158 cubic yards of printouts.

Still, imagine the cost of the cartridges if they were silly enough to be using inkjets !

"These 2 scumbags should have been HUNG years ago for giving the Chinese missile guidance technology in exchange for campaign contributions via Loral..."

You forgot Huges, Inc. (their biggest donor?). Between the two they fixed China's multi-stage lift-off explosions and gave them MIRV technology. I firmly believe that is why Ron Brown was killed. The Clintons changed "duel use" technology control from the State Dept. to the Commerce Dept and Commerce Secretary Ron Brown was reported to likely expose the corruption. Yup, I remember Chung and Riady and the blatant bundled donations to the Clintons.

I was astounded they got away with it. Talk about treason. I can't recall why they weren't investigated or were they? But then, the Clintons have been THE best money-laundering criminals in American history. They still do it with the Clinton Foundation.

I've often thought that besides their Alinsky Rules following, they studied and approved upon Charles "Lucky" Luciano and Al Capone syndicates. Of course, it was for the good of the childrun and socialism.

Was it possible this was a Ost file?

"I read an article this morning that said they did not need a warrant at this time because Weiner gave them the laptop willingly and he is being fully cooperative."

Read it, also. Still, why all the concern about AG Lynch not providing a search warrant? My earlier guess is because of community ownership. So, now why does the FBI have access? This is so convoluted.

If this is true, the leaks are coming within days.

Ah, but that’s compacted wrapped paper. Stack the printer output and it’s a greater volume for the same number of pages, but still....

One reason for the shear number of emails. Weiner was collecting emails from Huma, Hillary, Podesa, etc. to be used as collateral in case his child was going to be taken away during the divorce. To be used for blackmail or counter-blackmail.

“How the hell do State Department emails end up on a sexual predator’s laptop?”

The Clinton-Addams Fam-i-ly:

Creepy Hillary with a creepy husband.

Huma who has a jihadist mother and Weiner as a husband.

What a pair those two make.
