Judge reopens FOIA case on Hillary Clinton aide Abedin (Huma)

politico ^ | June 19, 2015 | JOSH GERSTEIN

[PROCON]

Reacting to the disclosure that Hillary Clinton exclusively used a private email account during her tenure as secretary of state, a federal judge agreed Friday to reopen a conservative group's Freedom of Information Act lawsuit seeking details about the employment arrangements of top Clinton aide Huma Abedin.

However, U.S. District Court Judge Emmet Sullivan declined — for now — to address claims from Judicial Watch that Clinton's use of the private account and server led State Department officials to commit a fraud on the court by certifying they had turned over all responsive records.

[PROCON]

Judicial Watch is a fine, conservative watchdog for freedom, but even though it's found that Hillary!/Huma are guilty as charged, will it really change the minds of any of her loyal brown shirts?

[laweeks]

Hillary’s carpet needs cleaning?

[Mouton]

It won’t make a difference. Her thighness just walks through the sh.t storm of allegations with the shield of a combined worthless press and her faithful minions.

[bgill]

I’m all for closing the barn door but it needs to be done before all the horses, cows, pigs, sheep, goats, and chickens get out.

[Mollypitcher1]

Maybe we’d better put Hillery and her cohorts in the barn with all the other animals and bar the doors! wonder who’d be left?

Judge Emmet Sullivan declined — for now — to address J/W claims that Clinton's use of a private email account and server for official govt communiques led State Dept officials to commit a fraud on the court by falsely certifying they had turned over all responsive records when asked to do so in court proceedings.

POINTS TO PONDER Then-Secy Hillary gave her close aide, Huma Abedin, an unusual “State Dept special status".......meaning Abedin was working for Hillary at State....... AND simultaneously working for Bill Clinton, as a private contractor for his company, Teneo Holdings. Read on.

====================================================

Back in Jan 2014, Sen Charles Grassley (R-Iowa) probed Hillary's State Dept aide's employment status...... asking how Huma Abedin got a sweetheart deal as an outside private six-figure consultant while at the State Department.

Abedin held “special government employee” status, and worked a sideline---as a private contractor. One of Huma's clients was Bill Clinton's Company----Teneo Holdings----a dual-track consulting firm that calls itself the “next chapter in strategic advisory.”

CONT

HUMAN EVENTS EXCERPT: A former employee of bankrupt MF Global accused former president Clinton----chairman of Teneo's advisory board----of collecting $50,000 per month through his Teneo advisory firm in the months before MFG careened towards its Halloween filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, as hundreds of millions of investor funds disappeared.

Teneo was hired by MF Global’s former CEO Jon S. Corzine (an ex-Goldman Sachser) to improve his image and to enhance his connections with Clinton’s political family, said the employee, who asked that his name be withheld because he feared retribution, according to HE.

The source, who is no longer associated with MF Global, said Teneo is a dual-track company with one side devoted to merchant and investment banking and the other side set up to provide image and strategy consulting services. The Teneo contract with MF Global lasted some five months, the source said. The board cancelled it after Corzine resigned. The trustee for cheated MFG investors later sued JPMorgan bank for return of about $450M that MFG had wire- transferred out of its accounts to JPM's bank.

Chelsea's husband runs a hedge fund that gained access to (surprise) investors who had ties to the Clintons. Back in 2011, Mezvinsky, now 37, and two former Goldman Sachs colleagues — Bennett Grau and Mark Mallon — began raising money for Mezvinsky's Eaglevale Partners LP hedge fund.

Some of Eaglevale's investors included Goldman Sachs CEO Lloyd Blankfein. Blankfein, a slavish Democrat supporter, said he had "always been a fan of Hillary Clinton." The WSJ reports extensively on the fund's underperformance since its inception and Mezvinsky's mediocre investing and strategizing.

The Hillary-Goldman Sachs connection.

Then-US Sens Clinton and Corzine. Corzine was fresh out of Goldman Sachs executive suite, buying his NJ Senate seat office for $65 million; then buying the NJ governorship. Out of office, he ran a hedge fund where $1.5 B went missing.

Like lying in the face of a federal judge is a big deal to the Clintons...

Maybe we can start calling him U.S. District Court Judge Emmet "Susan Webber Wright" Sullivan...

You're just cheesed off because you think that obstruction of justice is a crime, for the Clintons...

[Liz]

An earlier NYT's expose tarred Bill Clinton w/ Teneo's sub rosa dealings. Teneo is run by Clinton aide---Doug Band. Prosecutors found Band and Clinton listed in pedophile's Jeffry Epsteiin's records as having a shocking 21 email addresses and tele nos.

L/E recognizes multiple tele nos and email addresses as the MO for money-laundering and tax evasion.

=================================================

Of paramount importance are the question Americans want answered WRT what Bill was doing while Hillary and Huma were corresponding?

<><> Was Bill hovering over the Chappaqua server getting wealth-building emails from State?

<><> Was Bill using classified information to set-up lucrative deals for donors?

<><> Was that why they scrubbed it clean?

<><> Was he dictating notes to Huma Abedin at Teneo and Goldman Sachs at his SIL's hedge fund?

<><> Was Bill's globe-trotting to places like far-off Kazakhstan that ended up as a lucrative uranium deal just a coincidence?

That nose of Bill's does a lot more than snort lines on a coffee table....this guy can sniff out money-making deals from miles away.

[kiryandil]

Out of office, he ran a hedge fund where $1.5 B went missing.

Geez, Liz - you act like commingling customer segregated funds is a serious felony, or something.

Laws are for peasants - not for former Goldman Sachs chairmen/US Senators/NJ governors...

[Liz]

Golly-—I keep forgetting that...thanks for the reminder.

[piasa]

no, but I’ll bump this anyway in case everyone’s bored with the flagpocalypse.
