Meanwhile, Huma Abedin and Hillary Clinton are facing increasing questions about how Abedin was simultaneously paid by the Clinton Foundation, the State Department and the global consulting firm Teneo, which is run by Doug Band, who helped start the Clinton Foundation. Abedin has also been at the center of questions after the release of emails showing the close ties between the Clinton Foundation and the State Department during Hillary Clinton’s time as secretary of state. On Monday, The New York Times editorial board called on Clinton to distance herself from the foundation as an “ethical imperative,” writing, “The Clinton Foundation has become a symbol of the Clintons’ laudable ambitions, but also of their tangled alliances and operational opacity.”
