FBI Now Has Warrant to View 650,000 Huma Fed Emails on Pervert's Laptop
by Katie McHugh30 Oct 20161,011

Federal investigators now have a warrant to review some of top Hillary Clinton aide Huma Abedin's emails, the New York Times reports.

Investigators will seize and review emails related to the Clinton investigation found on the computer belonging to disgraced Democratic congressman Anthony Weiner and his wife Abedin. Some of Abedin's emails passed through Clinton's illicit, homebrew private server that she used to conduct official state business. Investigators will review the Abedin emails related to the Clinton case.

The FBI plans to review some 650,000 emails found on Weiner's computer to see how many are related to the re-opened Clinton case. The Wall Street Journal reported earlier Sunday that the FBI had to wait for a court order to being its search.  Thousands of those emails may have been "sent to or from" Clinton's private server.
I think Hillary did have the server bleached, AFTER entrusting Huma to have a copy of all emails put on a device not owned by them so Huma and Hillary could say during interrogations they do not have a copy of the emails to the Federal gumshoes and a meek Congress. I think that the third party device chosen was owned by the husband of Huma. And now he has nothing to loose, and even something to gain by singing like a canary to the Feds after being thrown under the bus by the Huma and Hillary. This is evasion which Weiner will get them himself. H&H KNOW they are toast now.

#1 That's one idea about the laptop. But I wonder if Hillary didn't know about it cause it was to be Huma's leverage over Hillary later. But then it got lost in the shuffle with Weiner or she figured it'd never get discovered.

#2 If Abedin is a Saudi agent, then it would be a convenient way to get them out of the country.

Emailing stuff to another account of hers that the Saudis had access to. That they got onto Weiner's laptop was just incompetence.

#3 The question that needs to be answered is, why forward emails to another account, when she could access the unsecured Clinton server from anywhere?

#4 Not sure what format the emails are in. Could be a backup file from Outlook on the server, that was put on a flash drive, then loaded onto the laptop then extracted back to Outlook Express for viewing.

#5 ...650,000 emails? Six hundred and fifty thousand? Without for one moment lessening the impact and active evil of Malificent's actions, that works out to roughly 445 emails a day during her term as SoS that her or Huma were working on. Something just does NOT seem right here, though I will cheerfully admit to error.

#6 The question that needs to be answered is, why forward emails to another account, when she could access the unsecured Clinton server from anywhere?

And a good question it is. Perhaps only selected items were sent to the YAHOO account for harvesting and sharing ?

With classification markings removed, YAHOO could have contained documents originally classified as SECRET. Another account such as Hotmail, could have contained documents originally marked as TOP SECRET.

Sorting for forwarding or the 'convenient' access of the viewer (either HRC or... others). Quite similar actually to the platforms from which they were originally obtained, i.e., SIPRNET and High Side.

Perhaps specific cell phones were used by HRC for Yahoo accounts (or others), then later smashed with a hammer ?

#7 The bottom line actually IS: the FBI has it all now. It is a week until the Vote. They have a Warrant to dig in the half a million plus E-mails. The Election proceeds ANYWAY. And the election is within a single digit of contention. a flip of a coin close.
That means that even IF Hillary is elected the FBI is in possession of the E'mails. Hillary as President can cut the FBI's throat and in so doing cut her own throat for legitimacy. And if she does then she will have to fight AFTER she is elected to BE legitimate. The media will have to choose about their credibility then. They will smell raw meat. And they will have to cover their own ass or be meat themselves..

If Trump wins then he will proceed deliberately to drag Hillary all the way to Prison..slowly and methodically and terminally. It amounts to a Coup d'tat.. Drawn-out but definite.
Huma Abedin needs to watch the back of her head. Just about the base of the brain. That or a blond wig and a night flight to Saudi or someplace Moslem.
Weiner is a weiner in any case. He gets to stay alive, just. And they send him to someplace where his butt is a bowling alley.

#9 billy Madison1968, you lost me at when the media is objective and curious.

I do know CNN is losing its collective nonsense at the moment.

#12 I don't think they are are To or From her - a lot may be simply 'cc'ed to her account.

Not to mention all those...

"Hi! I'm Lyndia from Russia. I'm very sexy and I am looking for a ...."

Which Weiner just couldn't delete...

#13 Yeah if you count non deleted spam messages.
I think Hillary will still win if they don't discover a smoking gun before election day.

But the Senate might stay Republican now. This means no crazy liberal judges on the Supreme Court. That's something.

#14 Is that the same Senate who confirmed Lynch?

I think we are in for a hard time even if Trump wins. All those Rinos who would rather see a Socialist than Trump.

#15 I think there is a difference between an AG who might stay for one or two years and a Supreme Court judge who will stay for the rest of his or her life.

#16 How much space do 650,000 emails require? I might dump off 100-200/day. That would translate into about 17-18 years worth of emails at 100/day. That seems high. Weiner and Huma haven't been married that long. Something doesn't sound right.

I wonder if the Feds had Weiner in their crosshairs because of ton of State and Federal child protection laws. As the result of that investigation, someone said: "Oh, shit look what else is here!" Is Anthony Weiner sexting his way to the slammer?

If there were 650,000 emails, can you imagine some FBI agent having to sort our Carlos Danger's dic pics from Humas emails. Would this Feeb have the proper security to even go through these files if they were SAPs emails?

I don't think the word Republican means what you think it does. Not anymore.

#18 The number 650,000 means Huma has copied every email sent on the private server for the entire time HRC was SecState...meaning that Huma is a spy and was conveniently setting it up for her handlers to have access using the Yahoo account instead of a blind drop or other clandestine method.

#20 650,000 is simply impossible

As I understand it, the 650,000 is the total number of emails on the computer, going back some number of years. Some subset of these are related to the Huma/Hillary mess.

An email message is formatted, machine-readable text that can be searched automated tools. The existence of *any* Clinton emails on Weiner's computer would be of interest.

#21 I would think that if the Hillary campaign believed that significant discoveries were to be made, they would try to stall the process until Election Day and later appoint an Attorney General who will drop the whole thing.

#22 Ah, but you recall months ago, Hilly said the e-mails were a non-issue? Now she wants to know what they have.

That tells me there is something she thought was hidden that she now thinks might not be.

Somebody found 65 of my e-mails on Huma's computer, I'd say, "So what?" Right after, "How is that possible? Unless they are Rantburg comments?"

#23 650,000 is simply impossible

Semi-redundant copies of the same Inbox / Sent files - one on a given date, another one a month or so later, etc., seems to me a better explanation of what's going on.

#24 Correction, I guess I was watching msnbc lose control of their rectum.

They have had every hack on trying to dismiss this. 'Well why won't Donald Trump release his e-mails' stuff.

#25 There is great sense of irony that two things Hillary has supported in the past (perverted husbands and immigrate muslims) appear to be bringing her down.

#26 Some Dem dipwap was on ClintonCommunistNetwork-tv last night going apoplectic yelling "Trump groped a woman." He was trying to deflect from Weiner-Hillsary-Gate. He wouldn't shut up except for long enough to yell "Why won't Trump release his taxes?" God, please forgive me for this feeling of schadenfreude I have. How many "Hail Mary's" will square this thing?

#31 1. 650K e-mails means deleted spam was never emptied.
2. No matter whether the e-mails show Clinton to have been guilty of Treason, if she's elected, she's immune from prosecution while in office - and do we really see a Senate, even a marginally Republican one, acting on an Impeachment?
