Top Hillary Clinton aide Huma Abedin has told people she is unsure how her emails could have ended up on a device she viewed as her husband's computer, the seizure of which has reignited the Clinton email investigation, according to a person familiar with the investigation and civil litigation over the matter.
The person, who would not discuss the case unless granted anonymity, said Abedin was not a regular user of the computer, and even when she agreed to turn over emails to the State Department for federal records purposes, her lawyers did not search it for materials, not believing any of her messages to be there.
That could be a significant oversight if Abedin's work messages were indeed on the computer of her estranged husband, former congressman Anthony Weiner, who is under investigation for allegedly exchanging lewd messages with a 15-year-old girl. So far, it is unclear what — if any — new, work-related messages were found by authorities. The person said the FBI had not contacted Abedin about its latest discovery, and she was unsure what the bureau had discovered.

I’ve always suspected the reason for Weiner and Abedin’s marriage was to buy the Clintonistas an out for refusing to testify against one another as spouses.
Ironically, it might be their very union which brings down the empire.
Of course that would be highly illegal, and expose the person who did it to a lengthy prison sentence.
That is, if the person wasn't a well-connected Democrat.
I wonder why the F.B.I. didn’t collect all computers from everyone working in the State Department? This situation would have been a way to overcome Hillary’s use of the program, Bleachbit, to wipe her server of all information.
Usually they bite other people in the ass. So sad.
My guess is she may have forwarded sensitive data to her parents.
Could have gone like this. FBI says they want to do an investigation, need to take all the computers. State Department says no way, that will shut us down for months. The diplomacy of the United States will come to a screeching halt. FBI sais tough noogies, hand 'em over. State says go to hell you square-jawed Neanderthals.
The whole dispute gets kicked upstairs to Obammy and Valerie Jarrett.
Guess which side they come down on.
Maybe Obama has control of the CIA and ISIS as they have now formed but more of a black op clandestine grouping, while Hillary has influential control of the FBI and Congressmen and substantial control of the State Dept, ergo internal controls within foreign CIA operations and foreign political connections.

All the foreign intel groups are watching in the wings and picking up collateral damage.

I would love to see the picture of Chelsea bringing the baby to grandma... during visiting hours at the maximum security prison.
Perhaps she will be sent to Chowchilla women’s prison. It will be appropriate since California will go for Hillary on election night. It wouldn’t matter if they saw her kill someone on live TV they would still vote for her.

Two special agents of the FBI interviewed Abedin on April 5 noted the details in the summary of their interview, which took place at the FBI’s Washington field office and, notably , was attended by the chief of the FBI’s counterespionage section.
On page 3 of their 11-page report, federal agents detail how a classified paper on Pakistan, sent from a State Department source, that Abedin inexplicably forwarded to her personal Yahoo email account..... an obviously unclassified, unencrypted, unsecured and unauthorized system. Not an isolated event, but a common practice with Abedin.
“She routinely forwarded emails from her state.gov account to either her clintonemail.com or her yahoo.com account,” the agents wrote. Why? “So she could print them” at home and not at her State Department office.
========================================
The cover story concocted.....Huma was only forwarding the emails home so she
could print them, b/c Hillary wanted it that way, even though it's illegal.
REALITY CHECK: Tens of thousands of classified emails are housed,
not only on Hillary's secret basement server, but at Huma’s home as well.....
on devices held by Huma's unemployed husband.
===========================================
This underlines Judiciary Chair Sen Grassley's point that Huma Abedin may have been collecting political intelligence gleaned from unsuspecting State Dept officials that was then sold..... for a price.
Recall that Huma was a govt employee at the State Dept. Then Hillary facilitated Huma having several other jobs simultaneously. (a) Huma working for Teneo....the powerhouse company that is purported to be the vehicle foreign entities use to get access to the Clintons. (b) Clinton Foundation employee. (c) State Dept employee.
Sen Grassley wrote in a June 13, 2015 letter:
It appears that one of Abedin’s clients, the Clinton-connected Teneo Strategies, may have been compensating Ms. Abedin for gathering information from US government sources for the purpose of informing investment decisions of her consulting clients - or in other words, political intelligence.
This raises important questions about whether Abedin’s 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.
Grassley’s letter recounted:
<><> Abedin allegedly sent or received more than 7,000 emails on her US government account that involved Teneo’s Doug Band, a close confidante and travel companion of the globe-trotting Bill Clinton;
<><> one email exchange involved Teneo’s Doug Band pressuring Abedin to encourage her State Department boss, Hillary Clinton, to facilitate a White House appointment for one of his clients. Judith Rodin, then-president of the Rockefeller Foundation, “donated hundreds of millions of dollars to the Clinton Foundation,” Mr. Band allegedly noted in his email to Ms. Abedin.
<><> email evidence allegedly suggests that Ms. Abedin and another Hillary aide, Cheryl Mills, colluded to find a way to ensure the US govt paid for Ms. Abedin’s travel to and from New York.
<><> multiple allegations received by Sen Grassley’s Judiciary Committee indicated Abedin had actually taken leave during her time as a govt employee, casting doubt on whether Abedin should have received $33,000 in taxpayer money.

If those files are under a folder called life insurance, you know those are probably the most damning of the emails of Hillary’s.
Or she is working for another government

Huma Abedin is virtually admitting she knew her damaging information was on the computer.
Why? She is saying “unsure how”+”her emails” were on the computer when the FBI has not yet contacted Abedin.
It’s like a pre-emptive strike to set the tone of “plausible deniability” strategy to save the campaign.
