If you were married to this man, you should be investigated.
Inspector General Steve A. Linick also said he wasn't aware of Mrs. Clinton's or Ms. Abedin's use of a non-government email account to conduct official business, and said that's generally been frowned upon at the department. He pointed to a 2012 report that instructed an embassy to stop using a commercial email system as evidence.
And Mr. Linick said he is looking into whether those employed as Special Government Employees -- the designation Mrs. Clinton gave to Ms. Abedin -- are following the law, and avoiding conflicts of interest.
Legal compliance would also be maintained if Teneo was discovered not to be a private entity, but perhaps we shouldn't go there.
"The OIG intends to examine the department's SGE program to determine if it confirms to applicable legal and policy requirements," Mr. Linick said in response to a request from Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Charles E. Grassley, Iowa Republican.
Mrs. Clinton approved hiring Ms. Abedin, her long-time assistant, as an SGE, which allowed her to collect a government salary while also continuing to work for Teneo, a private firm. Mr. Grassley said there the usual conflict-of-interest questions in an arrangement like this are only heightened by the report that Ms. Abedin used the same non-official email server Mrs. Clinton set up for herself.
Interesting little consulting business you've got there, with numerous strategic overseas offices and such. Be a shame if someone took a real close look at it. I suggest we start with the financials, then move on to your IT department.
Oh, your financials are unavailable due to an lengthy and sensitive IRS audit, and your computer servers and desktops have recently been replaced? Well then, that just about wraps it up. Have a wonderful day.
