Breaking!: Huma's Other Consulting Job Was Working for Bill Clinton! Jail Time? Forgot to post the story I got so excited!!! Part One While still working at the State Department, Hillary Rodham Clinton confidante Huma Abedin was paid by the private consulting firm Teneo Holdings to help stage a star-studded reception that included her boss’ husband, Bill Clinton, along with George W. Bush and former British Prime Minister Tony Blair as speakers just days after the Benghazi tragedy, The Washington Times has learned. Ms. Abedin’s work on the Sept. 20, 2012, event at the glamorous Essex House in New York City, helped entertain potential Teneo clients, wowing them with access to three former world leaders on a single stage. It was one of the specific projects she worked on with Teneo during a seven-month period in which she earned a $15,000-a-month consulting fee from the firm while simultaneously receiving pay as a “special government employee” advising Mrs. Clinton at the State Department, according to interviews and documents. Ms. Abedin, the wife of former Rep. Anthony D. Weiner of New York, worked as a full-time government employee and deputy chief of staff to Secretary of State Clinton from 2009 through mid-2012. She then moved to New York and transitioned to a part-time employee at State after giving birth to her first child and seeing her husband resign his congressional seat because of a sexting scandal. The special government employee status at the State Department allowed Ms. Abedin to simultaneously take on other consulting work, as with Teneo and the Clinton Foundation, where she assessed the charity’s ongoing programs to pave the way for Mrs. Clinton’s return there after she left the State Department in early 2013. In all, Ms. Abedin was paid about $105,000 over seven months to advise Teneo in New York from summer 2012 to early 2013, according to a person familiar with the arrangement. During the same time, she collected $126,239.80 in pay as a special government employee at the State Department, according to internal department records identifying her pay and leave that were obtained by The Times.

They say the State Department put Ms. Abedin in a position to collect money from an outside firm that had interests and political connections inside the department where she still worked, creating at least the appearance of a conflict of interest. “The guidelines for becoming a special government employee make it quite clear it’s a unique position offered to someone as long as there is no conflict of interest,” said Craig Holman, the government affairs lobbyist for the Public Citizen ethics watchdog. “With Huma, she was in such a powerful position, conflicts were inevitable. “Huma never should have been provided special government employee status. She should’ve either remained a full-time employee at State or else become a full-time employee in the private sector,” he said. “To merge the two does raise a serious conflict of interest.” "I fear the day that technology will surpass our human interaction.

Breaking!: Huma's Other Consulting Job Was Working for Bill Clinton! Jail Time? Here is the bottom line. Long story. While arguably the second most powerful person at the State Department, Huma Abedine was allowed to take on another consulting position for a company, Teneo. This is very rare. It was discovered and revealed tonight that Huma's personal and high paying consulting job at Teneo was to put together gala events for Bill Clinton during his speaking tour and Hildabeast's own events! Could you make this up? DOUBLE DIPPING FOLKS! One of the oldest games in DC and very illegal and very suspicious of major, criminal, conflict of interesst.
