Clinton's inner circle knew FIVE YEARS AGO that Anthony Weiner was messaging an underage girl on Twitter - but did nothing about it
- John Podesta and Neera Tanden were forwarded news of an investigation into Anthony Weiner's contacts with a 17-year-old Delaware girl in 2011
- Jennifer Palmieri, Clinton's current campaign communications director, forwarded the news article to Podesta and Tanden with the comment, 'Oof'
- Six days later, on June 16, 2011, Weiner announced his resignation after accidentally tweeting a photo of himself in bulging briefs to his followers
- Sources close to the 17-year-old at the time told Fox News that the girl and Weiner had direct-messaged each other on Twitter
- At the time Weiner admitted that he had contact with the girl, but denied sending inappropriate messages
- An investigation was launched into Weiner earlier this year after he allegedly exchanged text messages with a 15-year-old girl
