The WikiLeaks website posted more than 2,000 more e-mails it said were hacked from the personal account of Hillary Clinton’s campaign chairman purporting to show infighting at the family foundation and internal debate over new banking regulations backed by Senator Elizabeth Warren.

Among the issues included in the latest round of e-mails allegedly purloined from John Podesta’s account are messages in which former President Bill Clinton’s personal aide, Doug Band, is quoted as disparaging Clinton’s daughter Chelsea “as a spoiled brat kid” over disputes at the family’s foundation. They also depict internal debate over how to handle Democrat Warren’s proposal to reinstate the Glass-Steagall Act barring commercial banks from underwriting corporate securities.
