FBI Director James Comey is testifying right now at a Senate Judiciary Committee oversight hearing and not surprisingly, the question of his investigation into the emails discovered on Anthony Weiner’s laptop came up.
Apparently the emails, for whatever reason, HAD BEEN SENT TO WEINER!
Comey just now: “somehow Hillary’s emails are being forwarded to Anthony Weiner.”

Did I hear Comey right? That Huma Abedin forwarded Clinton emails to Anthony Weiner laptop?

Comey went on to say that there was classified material discovered during the investigation:
Comey: We found emails from Huma Abedin to Hillary Clinton, which included classified info, on Weiner's computer

Comey on Clinton: "Somehow her e-mails were being forwarded to Anthony Weiner including classified information…"

Keep in mind, there were still 3 months of missing emails — those sent and received by Secretary Clinton via her Verizon BlackBerry — and agents believed some of those missing emails might have been sent to Weiner:
Comey: Oct 27, metadata showed there was 1000s of Clinton emails on Weiner device, including maybe her missing emails.

In summary:
That was the obvious reason why the Clinton investigation was reopened: Huma and Anthony Weiner were forwarding confidential info.

Game over, Dems.
