Trump Ally Responds to Domestic Terror Act W/Bigoted Attack on Clinton Aide

Trump ally: Clinton aide could be 'terrorist agent'

In the wake of Sunday's deadly terrorist shooting in Orlando, Donald Trump's longtime friend and informal adviser wants the presumptive Republican nominee to hit Hillary Clinton even harder, suggesting the former secretary of state's top aide Huma Abedin could be a "Saudi spy" or a "terrorist agent."



Abedin was born in Michigan to an Indian father and a Pakistani mother. She moved with her family to Saudi Arabia at the age of two, and attended a British girls' school before returning to the United States for college.

Stone remarked upon reports from the likes of Breitbart, as well as Vanity Fair, The Atlantic and Harper's that Abedin "has very troubling ties to a man who was directly tied to funding terrorism, Abdullah Omar Nasseef. Now I have a very hard-hitting piece coming up in Breitbart that lays this out chapter and verse," Stone said, teasing out an upcoming article. "It’s not just Huma. It’s her mother and her father who are, who are hardcore Islamic ideologues, her brothers—“

Stone's specific claims pertaining to Abedin have not been substantiated. The Atlantic referred to the Abedins' purported connections to the Muslim Brotherhood as “indeed a little nuts … That is, if you believe the excursions at all.” Harper’s, meanwhile, called another insinuation a “hard-to-credit rumor,” while Vanity Fair noted that the likes of Republican Sens. John McCain and Marco Rubio have condemned such conjecture.
