Weiner lost his job and now potentially his marriage after repeatedly getting caught sending suggestive messages to women on Twitter. He tells reporters he will not resign and does not plan to separate from his wife.

Weiner, who torpedoed his own political career five years ago with a sexting scandal and whose wife is Clinton’s closest adviser, deleted his Twitter account after the latest report surfaced. My guess is that Anthony Weiner will somehow reemerge on the public stage and that Huma Abedin will be scarred forever. It’s just another example of Hillary Clinton’s bad judgment.
The first led to his resignation from congress in 2011 and a promise to undergo rehabilitation. “I feel like he sends the photos ’cause he wants compliments”.
They have a three-year-old son, Jordan Zain Weiner. Did Huma Abedin Weiner really not know she had a deviant taking care of her child? But to think that it’s very likely that much of this information Anthony Weiner would know about. “Can you help me out here?”
– July 23, 2013: A gossip website publishes screen shots of sexual conversations that Weiner allegedly had with a woman last summer.
Abedin and Weiner have been “essentially” separated for months, a close friend to Abedin said after she officially announced their separation on Monday. “But she has not been chief of her husband’s staff, obviously”.
The host went on to say that his “heart goes out” to Abedin.
On the same day, Harper’s Bazaar publicized excerpts of an article Abedin wrote for the magazine’s September issue. You have to wonder what took so long for him to get dumped.
Clinton strongly supported Abedin when Weiner’s sexually charged text messages came to light in 2011, a year into their marriage, and again in 2013, when Weiner was running for mayor of NY.
“She is stalwart, and a consummate professional”.
In other words, nearly half of the emails that Abedin forwarded to her unsecured personal account have information the State Department deems too sensitive to be seen by members of Congress or the American people. “I don’t personally agree with that”. “August is a notoriously slow news month, and it can be hard for me to find stuff to talk about”, he said.
“I am pretty sure that if this kind of information was shared with the public and if the adult in the photo with a toddler was Black or Hispanic, the City of New York’s Administration for Children’s Services would have been knocking on the door to investigate possible child abuse to remove the child”.
– September 11, 2013: Weiner finishes a distant fifth place in the mayoral race. In one exhaustive list of federal political sex scandals, beginning with Alexander Hamilton’s now famous affair with a married woman, there is only one female entry – of a member of Congress who admitted to having an affair with a married man before she was an elected official and while she was single. He later apologized for “favoriting” the message saying that he “accidentally hit the star thingy on a @voxdotcom story about Tinder”. He even gave $150 to Weiner’s campaign when he was running for city council in 1997. “Weiner” chronicles what begins as a redemption story for the disgraced politician.
On the streets of D.C., people were shocked.
This is not about Hillary Clinton or Anthony Weiner, and it’s certainly not about Huma Abedin’s personal decision to leave a deteriorating marriage. “Anthony and I remain devoted to doing what is best for our son”. The couple has a 5-year-old son.
He then sent an image of his torso, brandishing a bulge beneath his white boxer-briefs – and his son next to him.
There’s no question that Abedin plays a fairly critical role in the Clinton campaign.

“The campaign has evolved and it’s a new playbook”, he said.
