[Hot Air] The continued release of e-mails from Hillary Clinton's secret e-mail server may land her closest aide in legal trouble sooner than her boss. Senate Judiciary chair Chuck Grassley had already begun probing the unusual arrangement that allowed Huma Abedin to work for both the State Department and Teneo simultaneously, as well as Abedin's claims of never having taken a vacation or sick day while at State. Abedin has responded by publicly rebuking Grassley for "damaging her reputation," a claim that provoked plenty of derision related to her spouse and his own damaging antics.
The rebuke hasn't daunted Grassley, who has new questions about Abedin's conduct at State. New e-mails produced through a FOIA demand by Citizens United appear to show that Abedin used the Clinton email server for Teneo business, raising even more questions about conflicts of interest and the abuse of public trust -- including whether Abedin was doing political work for Clinton on State Department time:

When we find out that Huma was actively working for the Iranian government, the whole house of cards will fall apart.
The only hope the administration has is that the FBI will slow play the investigation long enough for them to get out of office and out of town before we find out how thoroughly the Iranians have infiltrated our Executive branch.

If espionage is discovered, it may be a bit more complicated, cut-outs, family members, etc. Her mother is key MB figure here in the States.
The White House UNCLAS network was reportedly hacked nearly two years ago. If the Beest's unauthorized server system and if her friends at 'Platte River Network' are how the hacker's gained access, and nobody in the White House said anything for two years..... all bets are off.
Adjusting my hat.
If Brennan and the Klingon's were cognizant of, or exploiting an active espionage campaign..... yet another very, very sticky wicket.

IMA awaiting Fred's approval for the use of this foto on all Abedin related articles. I think it's only appropriate, but the boss has the last word.
[CHRONICLE.NORTHCOASTNOW] The Lorain County Democratic Party shut down its booth at the Lorain County Fair on Thursday to protest the Fair Board’s decision to allow the sale and display of the Confederate flag at the fairgrounds. The move came a day after county Commissioner Matt Lundy, a Democrat, called on the Fair Board to ban the Confederate flag, which he called a symbol of hatred and division. Ummm...Doesn't making a big deal out of something that's been casually displayed for the past hundred and fifty years sow hatred and division? That's precisely the point...

But chopping up babies and selling the parts for profit is A-Ok. In fact it's something to be celebrated....

....Okay - Lorain County is where I grew up (Lorain its own self, to be precise) and this particular brand of schizophrenia surprises me not. Northern Ohio votes liberal every doggone time they can, but socially it's sufficiently conservative that most 'Burgers would feel pretty much at home. The result is you have governmental twinkies like this running around, whereas the people who vote for them are perfectly happy looking at the Stars and Bars.

schizophrenia - works well in Ohio. IIRC provided the most manpower in the Civil War, but also had the most Copperheads in the Union.

Attention, entitlement junky --
Expunge every racist-ass honky!
Their names on your places,
Their memes and their faces --
Let's start with your mascot, the donkey!
Someone using the name of Vice President Joe Biden's son Hunter Biden had a profile on the Ashley Madison dating website for extramarital affairs, Breitbart News has learned. Benefit of the doubt applies, since the site's subscribers were largely fake.
Hunter Biden tells Breitbart News that the account is not his, but rather was created by one of America's enemies to discredit him. And then America's Enemies™ went ahead and hacked the site so that his name got released? I think we get the picture here. Because Biden was a man of principle and is much more important than all them others on Ashley Madison, he got hacked as punishment for drawing a fee for sitting on a Ukrainian gas company that dealt with natural gas purchased from the Russians so his credit card was used, apparently only for this purpose and none other, such as airline tickets, motel rooms and restaurants and bars, and possibly hookers, I mean masseuses. The only element in his excuse missing is a foto of his nether regions.
He thinks it could have been due to his sitting on the board of a Ukrainian gas company, which outraged supporters of Vladimir Putin's Russian regime. Didn't know what to do once the lonely cuties started calling his house at all hours?
Robert Hunter Biden, known colloquially as Hunter, is a business executive, a husband, a father, and reportedly one of Joe Biden's closest advisers as the vice president considers launching a presidential campaign. Hunter, who met his wife Kathleen in the Jesuit Volunteer Corps, has contacted some of his dad's supporters in advance of a possible Biden candidacy. Did he ask them for dates?
But he insists that he's not the "Robert Biden" who was a fan of "Anything Goes" relationships with women on the website Ashley Madison, which arranges affairs for married people. Biden confirmed that the email address listed on the account belongs to him. But he thinks his enemies had access to his personal information, possibly through hacking his other online accounts -- and that they fabricated the Ashley Madison account in his name. "Because that's the sort of thing enemies do."
"I am certain that the account in question is not mine," Biden told Breitbart News. "Wudn't me."
"This account was clearly set up by someone else without my knowledge and I first learned about the account in question from the media." "Really. I was flabbergasted."
"In fact, I no longer use the email address linked to this account as I became aware that this email account may have been compromised," Biden said. "In fact, I never did use it."
"This is unfortunately not the first time that someone has used my name and identity to try to discredit me." "They were my credit cards, but I never called those 900 numbers."
Hunter Biden made global headlines in 2014 for joining the board of the Ukraine-based gas company Burisma Holdings during the height of the crisis in Ukraine. Biden's father, Vice President Joe Biden, was engaged in an effort at the time to help Ukraine lessen its dependence on fuel from Russia.

Enemies? In Hunter's world that would leave Cuba, Iran, Russia and North Korea off the suspect list. That leaves those evil American Dream Killing Republicans or FOXnews as the top two suspects.
[NYT] WASHINGTON -- President Obama appealed to a divided and troubled Jewish community on Friday, defending his nuclear accord with Iran as in the security interest of both the United States and Israel, and calling for a more civil debate with a congressional vote just weeks away.
In an Internet broadcast from the White House, Mr. Obama took questions from the largest Jewish umbrella organizations. He pledged that the vitriol surrounding the Iran debate would pass quickly as the United States, Israel and allies in the Middle East move toward confronting Iranian aggression beyond its nuclear ambitions. Champ wearing a kippah, nearly as over the top as his defense of the Iranian deal.

Divided community - socialists who claim to be Jewish and the Jewish community. Last time I checked the God of Moses wrote something about - thou shall not covet, thou shall not bear false witness, thou shall not steal.
[Breitbart] Ten Congressional Democrats who support the Iran nuclear deal have taken money from pro-Iranian regime lobbyists with ties to the Iranian government.
FrontPage Magazine's master sleuth Daniel Greenfield reports that the Iranian American Political Action Committee (IAPAC) has contributed to the following Pro-Iran deal Democrat "traitors". List of names and details follow.
