Abedin is also at the center of Clinton’s private email scandal and various other controversies involving her work for the private consulting firm Teneo Holdings, having recruited a State Department official to the firm on her government email address while on a trip to Cambodia with Clinton.

The easiest way for candidates Lincoln Chafee and especially Martin O’Malley to gain traction tonight is to go after the front-runner. Even though Democratic insiders have promised that this debate will be more polite in tone than its Republican counterparts, Hillary Clinton is a moving target for the other five candidates on the stage.

The Benghazi committee says the staffer was fired in part because he would have undermined the committee’s factual investigation with a bizarre project attacking Clinton, and for other conduct violations. And now the committee is accusing the staffer of trying to blackmail them for money with falsehoods emanating from his “wild imagination.”
