Hillary Clinton's longtime personal assistant Huma Abedin is finally dumping her scumbag husband. Update!

Courtesy of Mother Jones:

In a statement to NBC, Huma Abedin announced she is planning to separate from her husband Anthony Weiner. 

Anthony Weiner appears to have deleted his Twitter account amid new allegations that the former New York congressman has been sending lewd messages to an unknown woman over the past 19 months, the New York Post reports. The report is the latest in a series of sexting scandals involving Weiner, including one that brought down his 2013 campaign to become the mayor of New York City. 

One of the photos allegedly sent by Weiner, the husband of Hillary Clinton's top aide Huma Abedin, includes their sleeping son.

So to the question of whether or not there are douchebags on the Left to match the douchebags on the Right, I give you exhibit A.
You know in full disclosure there was a time that I really liked Anthony Weiner but damn is he a POS!

And I really feel sorry for Huma.

Not only is the poor woman now under constant attack from the Right Wing, but she also has to put up with this shit.

And I shudder to imagine how the Right Wing and Donald Trump will use this to attack Hillary Clinton. Because you know they will.

Update: Well that didn't take long.

Courtesy of the New York Times 

But Ms. Abedin’s separation quickly became political fodder for Donald J. Trump, Mrs. Clinton’s Republican opponent. 

“Huma is making a very wise decision. I know Anthony Weiner well, and she will be far better off without him,” Mr. Trump said in a statement. 

“I only worry for the country in that Hillary Clinton was careless and negligent in allowing Weiner to have such close proximity to highly classified information,” he continued. “Who knows what he learned and who he told? It’s just another example of Hillary Clinton’s bad judgment. It is possible that our country and its security have been greatly compromised by this.”

And I imagine that is only the beginning.

  2. This is really sad as Weiner has been given many opportunities to keep his pecker in his pants and finger off the phone.
    He has had some progressive ideas that need to be heard and in place.
    Unfortunately, those ideas will get buried in a lonely dresser drawer where he keeps his thong underwear.
    As for a very accomplished Huma, she has been Hillary's confidante for a long time and currently has her plate filled with Trumped-up allegations.
    Painful stuff.

    And just why is Trump assuming that Huma would pass classified information? Because she's a woman? Would he have said this about a man married to an adulterous wife?

      Like Trump? The jerk that has had numerous affairs and was married to multiple women?

      Trump is a first-class asshole and is no one to talk about anything sexual!

      Trump is no more qualified to be POTUS than I am! He can't keep his mouth shut for two seconds and is so quick to criticize or put someone down!

      Trump is not someone most would want to follow. I feel sorry for his kids having to come to gripes with the evilness of the boy/man who is called their father!

      He has such a shallow ego! It's amazing to watch and listen to him! Can hardly wait for him to become 'the loser' Trump!

    She needed to separate him, and especially with the child in the pic--no way could she have not separated this time.

    Trump had already talked about Wiener of late. I'd heard him a few times mention Wiener over many weeks. To Trump, Wiener's personal life was something he thought he could use against Hillary. And he has also recently brought up the Lewinsky blue dress. But Trump thinks his own personal life with Melania should be off-limits. No way. What's good for the goose is good for the gander.

    I want to know when Melania's news conference is going to finally happen. And I hope the people working on getting a hold of all her visa info and work date info are still trying hard to get that info.

    Trump who was married three times and who had multiple mistresses on top of all the other rumors floating around is hardly in a position to comment. I hope that someone refreshes his memory on that subject.
    I feel sorry for Huma but who could blame her. The photo in which we see her young sleeping son while Anthony is otherwise occupied is heartbreaking. I would hope that he gets only supervised visits with his son. He has already demonstrated that he cannot be trusted.

      Not only does Trump have his own history of repeated infidelity (there's a pot and kettle comment in there somewhere), but one of his closest advisors as he prepares for the upcoming debate is Roger Ailes, who is in the middle of an enormous sexual harassment lawsuit.

      It's truly frightening how he can manipulate reality so that anything and everything relates directly to himself. That's a terrifying prospect in a potential president!

    btw... What happened to Sarah Palin's assistants?

    I hear she may have a concussion. Are her assistants leaving her unassisted at this critical time? Something is wrong.

    They all know about the problems with assassination threats. Sarah and Bristol are so scared they have the man Bristol married going on and on about his purpose is to protect and sell guns and equipment. He is so into his passion he has signed on with a rescue mission to save others who are in a mess.

    As important as health is and Sarah knows all about that, why would she be rock climbing? She knows she is clumsy. Her family of assistants know and I can't believe they would allow her to rock climb. Didn't she and Todd do a promotion about that before. It was a failure? No assistant in their right mind would leave their clumsy boss in danger.

    Now, after this, he is simply a public joke and will be even more so for even longer.

      Failin's mother has a big bloody boo boo. She does not want the lamestream media to break the news or make reports like they tried to do with another family boo boo.

      Or all the times she tried to get out of Wasilla to be with Trump. The lamestream media broke and owned her stories when she was sent home due to screwed up family values.

      What does Grandma Failin do with her current breaking news?

      Grandma Failin breaks the news herself. All alone and no one else in sight. Grandma Failin has no support or help, not one person that cares. She is on her own and all alone.

      You would think Pistol Failin would be with her mother and trying to be supportive of someone with a head injury who is a public babbler, known to drunk babble.

      Grandma Failin could have a concussion.

      Pistol Failin and her bff, trained to kill, are too busy having fun and posing with beer and others from the DNA (substance abuse) family.

She ended saying that the last thing she wants to do is to talk about Wiener, but that was really all she wanted to do during her guest appearance. I couldn't believe they just let her go on and on.

What I despise is the hypocrisy from the right as though it has no perverts in its ranks.
