WEINER WIFE AND CLINTON CONFIDANTE HUMA ABEDIN MUM ON POTENTIAL JOB CONFLICT AT STATE DEPARTMENT

The wife of embattled New York Mayoral candidate Anthony Weiner is less than forthcoming about her own potential conflict of interest surrounding her work simultaneously with the State Department and a Clinton-tied private consulting firm.

Huma Abedin, an aide to former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, was a “special government employee” from June 2012 to February 2013, a status that allowed her to work for Taneo Consulting firm, co-founded by a former aide to former President Bill Clinton. Abedin also worked for the Clinton Foundation and for former Secretary Clinton personally. Abedin would not publicly disclose what she was paid by any of the private sector jobs.
