BACKSTORY Disastrous National Security Breach in U.S. Congress / By Doug Hagmann / FR POSTED March 20, 2017
On February 2, 2017, three Pakistani brothers with top access to the computer systems inside the U.S. House of Representatives containing some of the nation’s most sensitive information were removed from their positions by U.S. Capitol Police. The three brothers who are the target of a criminal probe, deliberately understated as a “procurement scam” include Imran Awan, Abid Awan and Jamal Moiz Awan, each who were the “shared employees” of at least 31 Democratic Congressional Representatives. But the case itself and potential damage is much, much worse than is being reported, if it’s being reported at all.
While the corporate media is obviously more intent to prove some nebulous cyber connection between President Donald Trump and the Russians, they have yet to pay even the most basic lip service to this case of apparent espionage that has taken place at the highest levels of our government. The Paki brothers had complete and direct access to information of three extremely sensitive committees: The House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, the Homeland Security Committee and the House Foreign Affairs Committee. The access to the information they had, along with their known or suspected affiliations to such groups as Hezbollah and the Muslim Brotherhood, has “shaken” government insiders with knowledge about the case.
Imran Awan has been identified as the group’s leader, initially providing computer services for Florida Democrat and former Democratic National Committee (DNC) chairman Representative Debbie Wasserman Schultz. Recall that it was Schultz’s email which was “hacked” during the 2016 election when she served as DNC Chairman.
Among the House members who presently employed the services of ring leader Imran Awan were Andre Carson, the second Muslim member of the House of Representatives, as did Congresswoman Jackie Speier. On March 22, 2016, it was Jackie Speier, one of eight House members who asked for additional funding so that the Awan clan could secure Top Secret/SCI level clearance.
Additionally, it was revealed that these employees were paid more than three times the salary of a “normal” IT worker, grossing upwards of $4 million dollars combined during their tenure as IT professionals. While the average government IT professional earns about $55,000 per year, Imran Awan was being paid $165,130, Abid Awan grossed $164,980 per annum, and Jamal Awan $157,577 according to government records.
Further investigation, however, found that the three brothers were merely the “core” infiltrators. Also on the government payroll were Hina R. Alvi, wife of Imran Awan, who was paid $168,300 per year and Natalia Sova, wife of Abid Awan, who was paid a meager $34,854.
And, it gets worse. Investigators determined that not only did the Awan clan have access to highly sensitive information, they set up an external server and copied information from Congressional computers to their off-site server, reportedly stealing documents, records, emails and other sensitive and classified information to the server under their sole control.
=============================================
UPDATE House members are in hiding, refusing to talk about the security breach and the fact that Americans' persona and financial interests may have been jeopardized. The Paki/hackers worked exclusively for House Democrats. Paki/hackers total access to Democrats' official emails, is a huge problem for stupid, gullible House Democrats that employed the gang.
B/c the Paki/hackers had access to hundreds of Americans' Social Security numbers, IRS tax ID'S, and so on. Not to mention having inside info on the operations of dozens of US agencies....including the IRS.
REALITY CHECK When a constituent contacts their Rep w/ a problem, the member requires a Social Security number and tax ID number to navigate US govt agencies.
Yet, not one Democrat has surfaced expressing concern for their constituents, not one Democrat took the time to warn constituents their privacy may have been invaded and their interests compromised.
On the contrary, as many as 80 Democrats employing the Paki/hackers are in hiding, unwilling to admit to their utter stupidity in the name of diversity. The Awans struck a goldmine---could be peddling Americans' SS and tax ID numbers all over the globe.
=========================================
TIME TO HIT BACK HARD---Demand that the names of the Democrats who employed these Paki/hackers be revealed, so that constituents can protect their interests.
SPREAD THE WORD: Constituents who had their privacy invaded have a good case against the gullible irresponsible
Democrat members.

Why in hell is this government hiring foreign nationals instead of patriotic Americans?
Was reported today that somehow these three brothers were able to leave the US and return home.
THANK YOU, LIZ!!!!!
“The best explanation is that the Democrats are complicit in the Iwan spying case “
Howard Stern (of all people) just said he will never vote for a Democrat again because he thinks “the RAT Party are all Communists!”
You NEED to ask your CONGRESSCRITTER...whoever they may be!!
Anyone with a brain wouldn’t vote for democrats especially after what we’ve all witnessed in the past 2 years. And unless the Rs change radically and get behind this president, same with the Republicans in the post Trump era.
Why do you call these corrupt collusive career politicians such cute harmless names like, “Congresscritters”?
Because of Obama
Because I didnt want to type Congressman or Congresswoman!!
I highly recommend copying this thread link and sending it to everyone in your email list(s) and ask them to do the same!!! Post it on social media as well. Spread the word.
The vermin in Congress can get on the Trump Train or order their packing boxes now.
Got a linky link?
It was all Obama? Really?
Then why did Bush import more Muslims after 911, than were allowed to enter in the two decades prior to 911?
Uh huh.
It is time for us to be hammering these gutless Republicans about the REAL intelligence failures and breaches particularly those on the House and Senate Intelligence Committees. Call, email and write to let them know how we are sick and tired of these investigations into Nothing.
Even the most dense Republican should understand that if the Democratmedia gets Trump’s scalp theirs will be next either because they did not fight back and defend the President or the Democratmedia will be looking for blood and encouraged by victory.
If you could post the phone numbers of relevance I will be very grateful.
Then why did Bush import more Muslims after 911, than were allowed to enter in the two decades prior to 911?
Bush brought in foreign nationals who had helped our military and were in danger of being killed because of their help.
Obama opened the doors of the US government to radical Islam just like Bill Clinton did for the Chinese
