...The full scope and status of the inquiry, (click here) conducted by the State Department's inspector general, were not clear from the material correspondence reviewed by The Post, the paper said.
The Post, citing people familiar with the subpoena and written correspondence about it, also said the subpoena asked for records related to Hillary Clinton's closest aide, Huma Abedin. It reported that for six months in 2012, she was "employed simultaneously by the State Department, the foundation, Clinton's personal office, and a private consulting firm with ties to the Clintons."...
The Clinton Foundation is a non-profit. It brings parties together with a common interest to improve the quality of life of people globally. It is not unusual for the Clinton Foundation to tap federal or state or local funding. Hillary Clinton or Bill Clinton do not receive bonuses to carry out the arbitration that goes along with bringing people together to serve a common focus.
I am not surprised Huma Abedin worked for many employers, including the US State Department. It is amazing Ms. Abedin was able to balance all of it. She is a very talented woman that has a very good relationship with Secretary Clinton, but, that is the end of it.
I am sure Ms. Abedin was looking for work outside the US State Department as she knew Hillary Clinton was leaving the State Department after President Obama's re-election.
I already know there was no conflict of interest and no quid pro quo.
It never ceases to amaze me how ingrained "the practice of mistrust' is to Secretary Clinton's public image. I already know there is nothing there and I have talked to no one and only read the article above.
The only path she can follow is one of a continued fight for her nomination and the presidency. She should not even discuss the subpoena with anyone. It is the only legal posture, it won't compromise her dialogue and legal standing for the nomination and it will end some hostilities that are only fed with her additional comments.
This is about the Clinton Foundation, not about the US State Department. I am fairly sure she is not working for the Foundation currently. I suppose the media finding satiation for their sensationalism by defaming Secretary Clinton keeps her off balance enough and is good practice for the challenges of the office. After all, look what happened to President Obama while he was in the White House for eight years. Good practice is a good idea.
