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.
If, God forbid, Hillary becomes POTUS her presidency will be crippled by these investigations and she will be either forced to resign or be impeached. I doubt the Democrats will tolerate Hillary for long even as POTUS as the American people will be seething as more and more of her corruption is revealed
The fly on Hellry’s forehead is a nice touch.
Ford didn’t wait for charges to be filed against Nixon before he pardoned him.
Since none of us have the laptop and aren’t likely privvy to the investigative procedure, it’s kind of pointless isn’t it?
I agree Huma sent classified info to Muslim brotherhood
probably largely off shore acts already
Two words: LOLITA EXPRESS.
650,000? My gawd, are these people online all the time?
Can a pardon be issued for future charges?
I want to point out something. This is Bull crap. The FBI found HUNDREDS of top secret and classified prohibited email ALREADY!! The Comey refused to recommend prosecution. Don’t tell me they are looking for “classified emails”. The evidence was already overwhelming !!! INTENT WAS NOT REQUIRED IN THE CRIMINAL STATUTES IN QUESTION!! Don’t tell me they are looking for intent. Huma Wiener is a Pakistani muslim!! I speculate that in the 650,000 emails there are contacts involving state secrets going to FOREIGN SOURCES!! These emails have BEEN reviewed !! They have had the laptop and 3 other devices for over a month plus Wiener may be squealing on his now hated estranged wife. The emails sent to foreign sources makes perfect sense. Katherine Herridge reported Friday that this had been the fall out of a major top level secret FBI meeting at Quantico Va . It is my guess that at that meeting it was revealed that the SEXTING investigation had actually found these emails going from HUMA to foreign sources containing National security secrets. This shifted the investigation back on Hillary. This is why HUMA has dropped out of sight. She may even be in custody? Why would she not comment? If Hillary wanted so bad to know what was on her emails— JUST ASK HUMA!!
In summary , I surmise that because of hillary’s illegal server ( hiding her criminal money raising) this afforded HUMA, as a possible secret agent, the opportunity to forward top secret emails to our enemies. IMO.
650,000 emails?
That means everything about everything...government secrets, personal secrets, financial dealings....No way Huma and Weiner by themselves wrote 650,000.
That also means that foreign governments have seen everything.
I am not a hacker, but I know enough to know that hackers looking for secrets or dirt hack into every contact the target has made...whether friends, banks, jobs or whatever.
Because sometimes secrets are only put in readable form by one party.
For instance I email that I robbed a bank and you reply “yeah boy.”
Only one of us has divulged the secret.
Plus by tracking all contacts a hacker can get email address for phishing and if lucky a password that gets him into more accounts.
What this means is that there are no secrets left in DC.
No wonder everyone is so jumpy!
The FBI and the CIA, the dims and other crooks must be going nuts.
I think I found an answer to my own question: In 1866, the Supreme Court ruled in Ex parte Garland that the pardon power “extends to every offence known to the law, and may be exercised at any time after its commission, either before legal proceedings are taken, or during their pendency, or after conviction and judgment.” (In that case, a former Confederate senator successfully petitioned the court to uphold a pardon that prevented him from being disbarred.) Generally speaking, once an act has been committed, the president can issue a pardon at any time—regardless of whether charges have even been filed. http://www.slate.com/articles/news_and_politics/explainer/2008/07/preemptive_presidential_pardons.html
I'm betting that Huma had her cell devices sync up to a shared laptop, which just happens to belong to Weiner.
Every time she connected her phone to the laptop, it backed up.
This could also be in addition to manually generated localized full backups which can be generated via iTunes. We're talking about contacts, text messages, local emails, login credentials, everything.
Several months ago when Roger Stone was still working for Trump he was interviewed by Bannon who was still workning for Brietbart...and Roger said in the end it would be found out that Huma was a Saudi Arabian spy. I have said for years with Humas connections with the Muslim Brotherhood shes somebodies spie an this spy trove should be one of more intresting stories in American history. Kind of makes Toyko Rose or Benedict Arnold pale by comparison eh?
650,00????? This is a joke right???
Computer/router experts please help.
Isn’t it possible that whoever set up the router in the Huma/Weiner residence inadvertently accepted a router default setting to share all files.
Could it be that Huma did not know she was sharing all files with Weiner’s computer?
There are two investigations on Hillary at least. There is a Clinton Foundation investigation. The FBI admitted that that was going on. There is the email investigation. But there may also be an investigation into whether she lied to the FBI or congress. Congress asked for this investigation formally in writing in August, so it is assumed to be going on. And obviously there is the Weiner investigation. Also there is the investigation into the Virginia Governor, Hillary Friend, financier and former CF board member. Now who knows what else is being looked into. Of course they are looking into the WIKIleaks stuff too.
Hillary is keeping them very busy.
650,000 emails? If true, the laptop was being used as an archive. But I’m sure Huma has no idea what’s on it.
Review 650,000 before the next week election. I will eagerly await the report. I am not voting until I read it. Lol
