Anthony Weiner’s Wife Huma Mahmood Abedin

Anthony Weiner’s Wife!
Huma Mahmood Abedin

You will find the Wikipedia account of her as interesting as I did.

Huma Mahmood Abedin, born in 1976, is an aide to Hillary Rodham Clinton who served as traveling chief of staff and “body woman” during Clinton’s campaign for the Democratic nomination in the 2008 presidential election.

Abedin, an American of South Asian descent was born in Kalamazoo, Michigan. Her father was an Indian- born Middle Eastern scholar who died when she was 17 years old, and her Pakistani-born mother, Saleha Mahmood Abedin, PhD, is an associate professor of sociology at Dar Al-Hekma College in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. At the age of two, her family relocated to Jeddah. Abedin returned to the United States to attend George Washington Univeristy.

Abedin started working for the White House in 1996 and landed an assignment with the First Lady. She currently works for Clinton at the State Department.

Abedin married Congressman Anthony Weiner(D-NY) on Saturday, July 10, 2010. Former President Bill Clinton presided at the wedding, which took place at the Oheka Castle in Huntington, New York on Long Island.

Abedin is a practicing Muslim and is an Arabic speaker.

In June 2011, less than a year after her wedding to Weiner, Abedin became the subject of widespread media attention after her husband’s Twitter photos surfaced. Weiner said he had told his wife about those online relationships. She decided to stand by Her husband and that they would get through this.

June 8, 2011 several days into the scandal, the New York Times reported that Abedin was in “early states of pregnancy.

How does one clear Secret Service? A Indian/Pakisani born in Michigan, rasied in Saudi Arabia clear the hurdles of working closely with the President and First Lady? Abedin became utterly indispensible, yet strangely out of the spotlight, while at the same time posing for fashion magazines? Numerous questions about livng a life-style WAY WAY above her pay grade! (Usually the biggest red flag in government counter-intelligence circles) and now she is married to and having a child with the darling of the Democratic Party, a shoo-in for the 2013 NYC mayor race. Therefore a real candidate for the White House in 2016 and beyond. (Of Course Congressman Weiner has Resigned!)

2007-allegations of improper payments to Abedin from Hillary’s office and her campaign(essentially the same thing Jane Orie) is on trial for.

2008-questions of where Abedin got the money for her $695k condo and her designer clothing given her pay $9,999.96 per quarter (did you know that $10,000 is a magical bank thersold.
