HeadlineSep 23, 2016

In more political news, New York authorities are investigating former New York Congressmember Anthony Weiner over allegations he sent sexually explicit text messages to an underaged girl. This comes a month after Hillary Clinton’s top aide Huma Abedin announced she was leaving Weiner, after photos and reports surfaced of him again sending sexual text messages. Weiner stepped down from Congress in 2011 after initially lying to the public about explicit phone and internet contact with women he met online.
