it could involve huma abedin.id she have classified information in an unsecure -- insecure e-mail setting. has she sharing if with anthony weiner, awful kinds of speculation. i've got to think that given the fact that they were talking about this in terms of the clintoned a vs., not the huma abedin investigation, that this does involve or at least questions are going to be raised about hillary clinton's criminal liability in all of these things, whether or not this touches her-0 doesn't touch her. >> how close was -- huma abedin, she had been a part of this investigation from the beginning because of correspondence or do i have two are stores mixed up. >> she was on hillary clinton's private server. huma abedin was in terms of personal relationships -- actual physical proximate sim tim, human beings' closest aide whale she was secretary of state and in this campaign so close he has been called hillary clinton's second daughter, is almost a member of the family. and in all of the e-mails we have seen in wikileakss

this dates back 20 years when abedin was an intern. it was clinton who reportedly encouraged abedin to go on a date with then new york congressman anthony weiner. they married in officiated. then came the e-mail sexual scandals which weiner was posted in his underwear. weiner then resigned. two years later when weiner was running for mayor, more explicit e-mails were uncovered. >> i love him, i have forgiven him, i believe in him. as we said in the beginning, we are moving forward. >> reporter: some say abedin should have broken ties with weiner then and were frustrated when she agreed to participate in a film of weiner's run. at one point in the film, she looks guilty of weiner. still, hillary clinton has never wavered. >> she's like another daughter to hillary clinton, so i think in the remaining days of the campaign, you won't see her psition changing at all. >> this summer abedin announced her separation from anthony weiner when he was caught allegedly exchanging messages with a 15-year-old girl. there are reports tonight that with

huma abedin. donald trump pounced on the news accusing clinton of corruption, quoting now, 00on a scale we ha never seen before. trump was sharply critical of the fbi for not pursuing charges against clinton, but now says he hopes what he call as grave miscarriage of justice is about to be corrected. and he added that the election, quote, might not be as rigged as i thought. wire cov we're covering that this hour with ryan fallen, a trump supporter and former mayor rudy giuliani. our expert analysts are also standing by. let's go to our chief national security correspondent jim sciutto who is working the story for us. the fbi decision to review the clinton e-mail investigation comes just more than a week before the election. >> that's right. and it began with a cryptic letter to lawmakers which raised more questions than it actually answered. the fbi director saying new e-mails have come to light pertinent to the clinton probe. later we learned from officials speaking only on back grounds that the

if abedin was able to give her anymore information. she basically avoided that, avoided answering. >> she avoided it. she did. and she -- look, the reality she was next to huma abedin all day long. she said, look, we don't know if -- she wouldn't acknowledge that it's about huma abedin's e-mails at all. she said we've heard the rumors and seen these rumors. she called on the fbi to release and say what they are looking for. but the reality is most democrats believe that is not enough. they can't control what the fbi does, but they can control huma and all the e-mails that she has seen. so they believe they will have to say something more on that. she's her closest confidant and adviser here, so it is unclear if those three questions she took today will solve all this. >> just from a legal standpoint, it would not be wise for hillary clinton to be talking to huma abedin about this. the fbi will probably want to talk to her again. thanks. donald trump is speaking shortly in cedar rapids, iowa. we want to bring it to you as soon as he doe

another one is to look at huma abedin. those that are not copies will be checked for classified information. officials say if this all goes quickly and nothing potentially classified is found, it is possible that th f and say so within the next few days. it all depends on how many of these e-mails have not been seen before. >> pete, you have new information how long fbi agents have known about this new cluster of e-mails. >> the fbi went to court and asked to seize weiner's laptop in late november. extent of the huma abedin's e-mails was not proceeded. it was only recently they say that they understood their potential significan significance. >>> thank you, pete william. donald trump is out west today where he attacked hillary clinton on this e-mail. >> the unexpected fbi announcement of newly reviving the investigation of clinton days before the election. under lining one of their rival's biggest vulnerability. >> we'd never thought we would say thank you to anthony weiner >> trump told voters justice would be served agai

cnn also learned the e-mails were sent and received by abedin. bares saying and repeating we don't know all yet there is to know about this nor do law make ore donald trump or hillary clinton. something to consider going forward tonight with our justice correspondent pamela brown. >> reporter: the e-mails prompting the new probe were on a device belonging to the anthony weiner sexting investigation. weiner was recently separated from top hillary clinton aide huma abedin. in the letters sent to the judiciary committee comey rights in connection with an unrelated case the fbi has learned of existence of e-mails that appear to be. the went on to take steps to review the e-mails to determine whether they contain classified information as well as to assess their importance to our investigation. the e-mails in question are not from hillary clinton but were sent or received by abedin according to a law enforcement official. this just three months aftercomey told conference the investigation into hillary clinton's private e-mail server was complete. >> d

abedin's e-mails was not proceeded. it was only recently they say that they understood their potential significance. >>> thank you, pete william. donald trump is out west today where he attacked hillary clinton on this e-mail. >> the unexpected fbi announcement of newly reviving the investigation of clinton days before the election. under lining one of their rival's biggest vulnerability. >> we'd never thought we would say thank you to anthony weiner >> trump told voters justice would be served against clinton. >> this is the biggest scandal since water gate. >> we must not let her take her criminal but herself to blame. the campaign like everyone else including the fbi does not know what those e-mails contained. it is not stopping them from uncapitalizing the unknown and assuming the worse. >> clearly there is something to do like national security or obstruction of justice. >> you are putting your spin on it. >> have you spoken to the fbi director. >> no, i have not. >> trump ground or deem the bleeding. >> it is some

huma abedin is looking at potentially ten years in prison for obstruction of justice.d there are thousands of e-mails the fbi found. >> she turned over -- there's -- we just found thousands of them. >> you don't know that. from the information james comey released you don't know this at this point. >> everything is speculation, don that's called business. >> i read the letter from james comey, i read the letter that he said tonight -- >> correct. i'm a commentator. >> you're speculating -- we don't need to know what's in the e-mails and what are there. >> huma -- >> that's possible -- >> it's also possible, bob, if i could finish -- >> please -- >> -- that huma didn't turn over thousands of e-mails and if one of these e-mails huma and hillary clinton talked about a private server then the risk -- hillary clinton could go to jail. >> it's possible i could play it in the nfl again, too. you guys just have got to stop this. you guys have got to stop laying out these in yuendos. donald trump had illegal immigrants think his buildings. do you want to have that investigated?

campaign official told huma abedin has not been contacted yet. >> abedin after working for clinton for two decades. the two is so close, hillary clinton considered her as her second daughter. >> one of several scandals thatun his career of his sex scandal. >> i wonder if she's going to keep huma. he's been a problem, do we agree? >> a campaign source tell nbc that clinton and huma abedin is as close as ever. >> she continue to do that. >> huma abedin takes campaign officials would not discuss possible staffing but privately signals that nothing changed. >> more fallout and questions about her future. halie jackson, nbc, news. >>> all throughout this election, russia has been the center of some of the campaign's heated debate. we right lane hearing about u.s. presidential race. kearse simmons has that story. >> rising tensions with russia. president vladimir is accusing politicians of whipping up hysteria. he's rejecting claims by u.s. intelligent agencies that russian hackers targeted the clinton's campaign. >> clinton and trump have spiralled about russia. >> from everything i see, i

uma abedin from time to time has had a top level security clearance. because she was the number two advisor to mrs. clinton, and was an employee. the state department. if she vi lated that security clearance by passing top-secret information to her husband or if she did so by sharing a mobile device with him, she could very well be charged with espionage. failure to secure state secrets that have been reposed to you for safekeeping, the same charge they investigated and cleared mrs. clinton for this summer. liz: an important point, thank you so much, judge, final point, uma abedin had the special status when she was chief of staff, i think, at the state department where he was allowed to work at home in new york city. out of her apartment. she also worked at teneo. so she was working out of her home to these devices, there is anthony weiner, a heck of a bombshell story on a friday afternoon. >> it is, don't look for it to be wrapped up before election day. liz: a good point, fbi director said that in his letter, saying we don't know how long this inves

huma abedin has been very loyal to her. the other thing you have to remember, carol, is this all comes back to the original sin of hillary clinton using a personal e-mail address, and a private server while she was secretary of state. that's what started all of this. that's what has led to all of these things, even though they criticize james comey. in the absence of that, of hillary clinton having gone along with that, or having wanted that setup, you know, all of these other things would not have happened. so, i don't see -- i don't see huma abedin going. i think there would have to be an incredibly high threshold, and for sure this is not it. >> i have to leave it there. thanks so much. >>> still to come in the "newsroom," after months of fighting isis to get close to the city of mosul, iraqi forces could now be within hours of entering the city. okay, so what's our latest data say? our customer is a 21-year-old female. heavily into basketball. wait. data just changed... now she's into disc sports. ah, no she's not. sinc

it was huma abedin who shared it with her husband at the time. maybe she lied to the fbi when she did that interview some months back. this is speculative. this is possible. we don't know where this is headed. we have to be clear that it might not end up, again, for the second time with any charges against hillary clinton or her staff or maybe this time this will lead to something. jake gibson, one of our producers, sent us information from a senior law enforcement official who said they know about this pressure from the clinton camp saying, why are you dropping this on us 11 days from the election. the democrats say you are trying to influence the election. if they hold it and say, let's not influence the election, let's wait and they find out there's classified information on november 9 or 15 and hillary clinton has been elected president, what criticism will they face then? >> let's start with our former prosecutor here at the table, kimberly. >> it's not you, greg. yes, an incredible story today. as a former prosecutor, i find it fascinating.

abedin takes on a senior role. campaign officials would not discuss possible staffing but privately signals that nothing changed. >> more fallout and questions about her future. halie jackson, nbc, news. >>> all throughout this election, russia has been the center of some of the we right lane hearing about u.s. presidential race. kearse simmons has that story. >> rising tensions with russia. president vladimir is accusing politicians of whipping up hysteria. he's rejecting claims by u.s. intelligent agencies that russian hackers targeted the clinton's campaign. have spiralled about russia. >> from everything i see, i have no respect for this person. >> no, that's because he rather have a puppet as a president. >> no, puppet, you are the puppet. >> his spokesperson sitting down with nbc news for an exclusive interview. you know to get more points. >> it is hard putin does not favor one candidate over another. he's in favor of any politicians who's in favor with good relationship with russia. >> the chin twar in russ

there is someone who knows what's in all those e-mails and that is huma abedin. has secretary clinton asked her what's in those e-mails? >> well, chris, the problem with what you're saying there is we don't know. we don't know where these e-mails are from. you're making an inference it could have been huma abedin. your guess is as good as anyone. this is why director comey needs to get all the information out question. has secretary clinton asked huma abedin what was on that laptop that she shared with her husband anthony weiner? >> she hasn't. you just offered a hypothetical on the table. let me offer you some hypotheticals i've read in the press. i've heard a hypothetical that these e-mails have nothing to do with hillary clinton whatsoever, that she didn't send or receive any of them. >> that doesn't matter. it's still the question of what's in the e-mails. so why wouldn't she asked huma abedin, did you have e-mails on why wouldn't she ask her? >> you and i are on the same page here. i want to know what's in these e-mails too. director comey has put out a lett

comicoming frop coming fco shared by abedin and w

what it looks like is a lot of these e-mails are abedin's e-mails, huma abedin, her advisor, her sidefor over 20 years really, her alter ego. she really knows a lot about hillary clinton, and of course her strange husband anthony weiner. now those e-mails, let's say hypothetically you sent -- you or anybody sent an e-mail to weiner or abedin and you said something in it of an embarrassing nature. well, is it right that your e-mail should now be made a matter of public record because you had the misfortune of having these two people who are under investigation as friends? no, it would be an invasion of your privacy rights. if the feds were investigating your taxes, would it be okay to reveal e-mails that had come from your good neighbors, maybe gossiping about another neighbor? no. that's why these things are privately investigated to see if there's anything there. and only when a criminal act is disclosed sufficient to prosecute does a prosecutor have a press conference and say we're proceeding, there will be an indictment. and just to finish with the answer to the thing you were aski

definitely related to huma abedin. the e-mails were discovered on a computer that anthony weiner shared with his wife. robert goodlay told abc's "this week" that he encouraged comey to give the american people as much information as possible about the discovered e-mails before the election. >> you mentioned classified information. how do you or mr. comey know that there's classified information involved here if you haven't seen the e-mails? >> well, we don't know. and we don't know what the basis was for mr. comey making the decision to further pursue the case. we don't know whether that's informants, whether they've had access to looking some of this information, we don't know what the basis was. we do know they know something is there. >> cnn investigations correspondent chris frates joining me live now from washington. chris, tell us more about what goodlay had to say. >> so far, it seems that comey is not telling lawmakers much more than what he's saying publicly. look, at this point, it's nothing. here's how he de

clinton once calling abedin her second daughter. bill clinton even officiating abedin and wiener's wedding. profile over the weekend is now under fire after the fbi announced they are looking into newly discovered e-mails. law enforcement sources telling nbc news the e-mails which could include duplicates of previously discovered exchanges came to light during the fbi's investigation of abedin's now-estranged husband and his latest sexting scandal on a computer the couple shared, and that is making abedin donald trump's latest target. >> i wonder, is she going to keep huma? huma's been a problem. do we agree? headlines overshadowed clinton's campaign this summer after wiener was caught allegedly sending racy texts to a teen. but now some democrats are asking if this latest crisis is a bridge too far with clinton's presidential bid at stake. sources close to clinton say the two women's relationship hasn't been strained and insisted abedin is still a valued member of the team. >> she's played a central and vital role in this campaign

huma abedin is one of hillary's best friends. so you've got to know that they were emailing all the time, all the time. she had three servers and -- no, she had one server and weiner had three. you got to figure that abedin passed some of hillary's stuff on to her husband weiner. all right? that's why weiner's involved. so the fbi goes in to investigate arena on this 15-year-old girl thing and they see stuff from huma abedin coming to weiner about hillary clinton. you have to assume this. this is an assumption i'm making. and then they go back and they look at abedin's phone and they see unbelievable amounts of emails from clinton to huma. now, if you're the fbi and this is all benign, has nothing to do with national security or top secret, you don't do anything. if it's just what are you doing tonight? what kind of dress are you going to wear or look at this, anthony, hillary clinton has a good idea to do x, y, and z, that's not going to rise. so you know there is something in there. has to be. because comey would never put his

remember this is huma abedin's e-mails, not hillary clinton's e-mails.uld the indictable offense be? it is not logical. >> so very quickly, scale of one to ten, charlie, ten being very much, how much does this affect the trump campaign? >> well, obviously it is going to fire up their base and changes the momentum of the race. in the end, i don't know. i'm guessing there might be a boomerang effect, it is going to fire up hillary clinton's base. but, again, we have to wait. what is the next news cycle going to -- what is the next shoe to drop because we have seen one surprise after another, but it fires up their base and it motivates their base and it changes the narrative. >> all right, i got to give it a wrap. tell me in my ear in a second. thank you, guys. >> okay. >> concerns of a rigged election, donald trump headed over and over again and we look at one computer and a city wide system that makes it impossible. and coming up next on am joy, republican women, a key block of voters donald trump must win. joy reed talks to four of them. anows how it fee

she said huma abedin was backing up her phone to the laptop? to me, first of all she knew what she was doing. she knew all the emails were there when she didn't have them any longer or didn't have a relevant device at home, that was for sure lie. backing up fon to laptop is active thing. that moons all the deleted emails, 33,000 emails looking for, if she was backing up her entire device to her laptop, then she has all of them and she knows she has all of them. kennedy: she admitted under questioning that she never delete ad thing. i don't know if she is guilty as that. anthony could be technical one, go ahead, let me handle this. i will make it easy for you, when you come home from work you open up your laptop, all of your contacts will be here. maybe he didn't tell her all emails were there. i don't give her that much benefit of the doubt. i think it was personally motivated by anthony weiner. maybe he knew this was bargaining chip that he could play in a sink -- >> bret baier reported from some incredible sources while anthony weiner is not

huma abedin was her aide. there are likely lot of e-mails here not about national security but logistical details of running the state department and being secretary. we need to know are the bulk of te mails personal and business related or do they have national security? we shouldn't be left just dangling there. i just disagree this is the last we should hear from the fbi. >> lot of question ossen that but evan perez, what is the fbi grerkt going to do? you heard jeff say he can't. he can't come out and give more information. will he even give us a sense of how many or anything? >> that is one of the the things i think that is behind closed doors at the fbi headquarters that they are thinking about. you have to think that when hillary clinton comes out and alsober by the way republicans also asking for more information. they believe there should be more information. he sent this three paragraph letter which left more questions than providing answers. he's been criticized by donald trump. called him a lacky th

is it conceivable that no one is say being to huma abedin, what do you think is on that laptop?> it's inconceivable to me. you know, whether that's one of her lawyers who are also attached to clinton world or hillary clinton herself, it's inconceivable to me that nobody talked to huma abedin today about what's on there. the other thing is that this investigation was originally in the mishandling of e-mail attached to the clinton server. that's not necessarily person specific. so if huma abedin had classified information on a laptop that anthony wiener had access to, that in and of itself may be an issue with regard to hillary clinton's e-mail. all the e-mails that i'm aware of, in terms of stuff that she sent that had classified information were going to other state department employees who have clearance, i'd hazard a guess that anthony wiener does not have a clearance. >> david corn, let's go to one of the questions hillary clinton handled tonight when she said, when asked what does this mean to voters, she says most voters have made up their minds about how this e-mail issue

i'm not sure i necessarily believe that this is related necessarily to huma abedin and anthony weinerand i will tell you why. i think the fbi, especially james comey, under him -- i know special agents, they have been furious with his earlier statements on this particular case. they feel the standard has been met, the 51%, the preupon drans of evidence to go forward in this case and that he should not have made the definitive statement he originally made. let me put up on the screen what wikileaks revealed specific to the clintons server. for example, co-chair of the transition team said the private e-mail server was fing insane, her own team saying this. an aide wrote, there's no good answer on the server scandal. podesta called clinton's e-mail scandal a hot mess. podesta's daughter thought clinton's, you know, comment to you, wipe it like with a cloth, ed, was kind of scary. it goes on. president obama -- now, this goes right to the white house. president obama, who said that he heard about it from news reports, he knew about clinton's e-mail server and private account because he w

they were being sent to or from huma abedin, hillary's top aid. the e-mails were found on one of the computers belonging to anthony weiner. you cannot make it up. he is of course abedin's estranged husband and the subject of a federal investigation for reportedly sexting with an underage girl. with less than a week and a half to go now until the election, the clinton camp has a hugh new head ache to deal with. hear's a little of her news conference just a short time ago. >> the american people deserve to get the full and complete facts immediately. the director himself has said he doesn't know whether the e-mails referenced in his letter are not significant or not. i'm confident whether every they are will not change the conclusion reached in july. >> we'll be joined by congressman trey gowdy who investigated mrs. clinton and we're speak with bob goodlet. one of the leaders who received the letter from director comey. jason miller is here to explain how the trump camp plans to deal with this. and judge anna nepal tan no who has been raising questi

new this morning, the fbi has obtained a warrant to review e-mails on a laptop belonging to huma abedin. the clinton campaign is trying to push past the announcement, but donald trump is latching on. >>> plus, with eight days left in the election season, early voting numbers show more democrats are casting their vote, but a slew of new polls show a tight race in several battleground states. >>> a week long man hunt in oklahoma ends with a shootout between police and the man accused of a string of violent crimes. we're following the latest details. >>> good morning to you, happy halloween. it is monday, october 31st. i'm betty nguyen alongside alex witt. with eight days to go, the bomb shell announcement has rocked the presidential campaign. last night the fbi obtained a warrant to begin reviewing newly recovered e-mails as they race to learn if they are tied to clinton's case, an inquiry that was completed in july with no charges filed, despite a stinging assessment that clinton was extremely careless. then on friday comey sent a letter to congress informing them, "in connection with an

>> according to officials, abedin used the laptop to e-mail clinton. investigators will examine the thousands of e-mails belonging to abedin to see if they have anything to do with the original clinton investigation. indication so far that anyone was withholding evidence. republicans down the ballot have seized on the fbi revelations as part of their closing argument. >> that is my letter from director comey telling me he is reopening the investigation. >> it's like throwing a political life line to republicans who are in house and senate races. >> is there enough time for trump to take advantage? >> this race is still tipable. trump. but it could move voters away from hillary clinton. >> before friday, it appears trump's path had narrowed. saturday, he stumped in arizona, a state democrats have carried once since 1948. clinton campaigns in phoenix wednesday. nearly 20 million americans have voted. more democrats have voted in eight states, republicans in four. trump is short of cash. on trump he wired $10 million of his own money to his campaign. ri c

turning to weiner and abedin.ink that fbi now has a solid direction on which to proceed and is open to full prosecution of hillary clinton? >> well, who knows. the fbi had an open road ahead of them, or available to them, and justice deputy did as well. they refused to take it. despite all of comey's strong statement, key statement was misstatement law, suggesting that she did not do anything wrong to require prosecution. you have to wonder with the fbi why they did not get this material sooner, abedin is only other government official that we're aware of who had an e-mail account on hillary clinton's server. there was classified information to that was well-known. why done they rush to her apartment or wherever she lived and get all of those devices, early on. to protect the american people's national security rhetts -- secret, the fact they got it through a backdoor you know -- back into it through weiner investigation. shows fbi is a mess with protecting our nation's security. at least as it relates to hillary

how about will they handle the fbi's e-mail probe now of huma abedin? discuss it with cnn executive politics editor mark preston. he is the bottom line. hi, mark. >> good morning. >> so how is this going to play out on the campaign trail today? >> well, we're going to hear the clinton campaign and all the surrogates go out and demand that director comey give more details although i think they'll fall on deaf ears as i think as we know from our reporting that comey probably will not discuss this anymore. at the same time we've heard jason miller, you know, one of the top spokesmen for donald trump on this show just last hour say that they want answers, as well. but hillary clinton needs to give some answers, so expect donald trump, who will be speaking at noon, to address this, as well. as well as his surrogates that are out there trying to hammer home the fact that they're going to say that hillary clinton is not honest and trustworthy, which is an achilles heel for her. >> there's nothing tastier than the unknown when it comes to an investigation. this

they found e-mails from clinton's aide huma abedin, weiner's wife. a deeper dive on the metadata that uncovered hits related to clinton. the republican chairman of the house intelligence committee, who was notified by the fbi, spoke with chris wallace of "fox news sunday." >> to me, this has to be a substantial development. i don't see director comey opening this case back up before the election unless it is quite serious. >> reporter: abedin told the fbi she sent e-mails to her personal yahoo! account where it was easier to print. she swore under oath that she never deleted her e-mails and she searched through all her devices for government records. that sworn declaration is now in question. the ranking democrat on the house intelligence committee told abc news comey acted outside his lane. >> i think there was a terrible error in judgment by the director to release this kind of ambiguous letter. these may be significant, they may be pertinent, they may not be, that kind of an ambiguity this close to an election was a terrible lapse in judgment. >>

but clearly, huma abedin did not turn over this device. we probably suspect because this device contains two kinds of information, official state department material and her estranged husband's penis pictures. >> and you, of course, admit there that's speculation. but let me come to this. you have made the case there succinctly, it's a concise case. can donald trump do that? we have, for our viewers in just a second here, what donald trump said about this rigged system before the letter was sent to the members of congress and after. and i want you to listen to what he said and the rhetorical shift he said and we'll talk. >> the system is rigged when she's allowed to run, because she has done many criminal acts. she's not allowed to run. she is not allowed to be running in this election. and the fbi rolled over and the department of justice rolled over. >> the system is rigged. but with what i've just announced, previously, it might not be as rigged as i thought. right? >> so, in the morning, it's rigged. in the evening, maybe not as rigged
