The FBI has had to await a court order to begin reviewing the emails, because they were uncovered in an unrelated probe of Mr. Weiner, and that order was delayed for reasons that remain unclear.

Yesterday, we reported that the FBI has found "tens of thousands of emails" belonging to Huma Adein on Anthony Weiner's computer, raising questions how practical it is that any conclusive finding will be available or made by the FBI in the few days left before the elections
Now, according to the WSJ, it appears that Federal agents are preparing to scour roughly 650,000 emails that, as we reported moments ago were discovered weeks ago on the laptop of 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.
As the WSJ adds, 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."
And, as we further reported earlier today, the FBI has had to await a court order to begin reviewing the emails, because they were uncovered in an unrelated probe of Mr. Weiner, and that order was delayed for reasons that remain unclear.
The punchline: the months of upcoming work means that if Clinton wins the White House, she will likely do so amid at least one ongoing investigation into her inner circle being handled by law-enforcement officials who are deeply divided over how to manage such cases. It also means that Trump will be hounding HIllary for the remainder of the campaign as being the only presidential candidate to seek election with a recently reopened criminal probe hanging over her head.

Put the pedal to the metal....
She’s an impeachment waiting to happen.
We went through that with Bill; do we want to go through it again with his wife?

Another Clinton brought down by a wiener.
The spotlight needs to swing from Comey, Huma, and Carlos Danger to Loretta Lynch and Obama
Burn Baby Burn!

And she could be playing brinksmanship with the impeachment...
If an impeachment, or other thing (like Trump winning) knocks her out of office, is she liable to a plain vanilla criminal prosecution too? Trump seems to talk like she is.
650k? That hot dog is a busy little fart.
“Another Clinton brought down by a wiener.”
But in this instance, “brought down by someone else’s wiener, rather than his own!”
That probably includes 400,000 spam emails. :-)
That is a problem with the Podesta emails as well.
Every stupid Democratic candidate running for dogcatcher in Dubuque asked Podesta for money.
Huma and Weiner were like squirrels hiding nuts for winter. There is no way they could’ve gathered that many emails without intent and purpose to scoop up emails outside of the ones they directly sent and received.
I’ll bet that there is dirt on nearly everyone. It could cause the entire government the fall and I’m all for that, goddamn bunch of thieves.
To those of us who remember the ‘RATS’ “Watergate” fiasco, it has been worth the wait to see this. I’m loving it! I’m glad that I lived long enough to see this. Hallelujah!
Traces of Hillary’s inbox were found on Wiener’s hard drive.
Put the analysis of the emails out on Mechanical Turk, CrowdFlower, clickworker.com, crowdsource.com, domywork.net, etc. The world will have them analyzed overnight.
Why in the hell would Huma have this many of hillarys emails
If Trump wins -and how the hell can he NOT- charges will be filed against the minimum number possible who will be pardoned before Zer0 leaves office.
I’d kind of expect that. No indictments, just silence, until Obama can’t defuse it.

C’mon - import the PST’s into a decent database. Develop a few smart queries. Compile a list of search terms. Iterate, disassemble, review. Draw conclusions from low hanging fruit, refine for more facts. Strengthen the case. But that’s just me.

I’d sure hate to see the Clinton’s skip the country with billions of American taxpayer (and other) dollars that could have been protected to repay us for their prosecution.
