House Dems Hired A Fired McDonald's Worker As Their IT Guy (Awan Bros)
Daily Caller ^ | June 26 2017 | Luke Rosiak

Posted on 06/27/2017 6:11:07 AM PDT by Whenifhow

Multiple members of Congress hired as their information technology (IT) administrator an individual whose most recent job experience was being fired from McDonald’s,

[ ]

Spokesmen for the members won’t say what their bosses knew at the time, but the hiring decisions highlight the role — witting or unwitting — the representatives played in what turned out to be an alleged multi-million-dollar IT scam in Congress with serious implications for national security.

Soon after Imran Awan joined the staff of Florida Democratic Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz in 2005, his brothers Abid and Jamal, his wife Hina, and his brother’s wife Natalia all appeared on other members’ payrolls, supposedly as IT administrators. His best friend Rao Abbas landed on the payroll too. Most of them made salaries ordinarily only chiefs of staff earn, but they were rarely seen or heard from in Hill IT circles.

[ ]

“Rao did appear to be home most days,” Perpignan said, and she claimed that Imran told her Abbas had lost his job at McDonald’s. Imran appeared to use Abbas as a cutout in more ways than one because he instructed her to make rental checks payable to Abbas instead of the landlord, she said.

For years, Abbas was the only IT worker for Democratic Rep. Emanuel Cleaver of Missouri and the only D.C.-based one for Ted Deutch of Florida, according to payroll records. If Abbas did not actually perform IT work for Congress, it raises the question of whether someone else with no staff relationship, such as Imran, was performing sensitive administrator-level IT work when required.

This is a long article with at least two new names:

Rao Abbas and , Haseeb Rana

With allegedly no-show employees connected to Imran being added to numerous offices, someone had to do the work. Imran enlisted an old high school friend, Haseeb Rana, for this purpose. Haseeb did not respond to TheDCNF’s multiple requests for comment.

His father, Tanwir Rana, said Haseeb is a skilled IT professional and “they made him do all the work … After three months, he wanted to leave. We were having a very charged relationship with Imran. [Haseeb] was not satisfied with their behavior.”

Wake me up when someone finally goes to jail. FBI, CIA, senate hearings, investigations, all talk, no action.

Time for any type of Prosecutor! The entire matter just sits there staring us in the face. No one will touch it. A shame on what the Libs have done to this country.

Nothing has happened. Except the three murders of the immigration persons involved in this coverup.

I suspect the perps are either back in Pakistan under the protection of their Pakistani Intelligence handlers or soon will be.

....another interesting paragraph....


According to payroll records, two newly-elected Democrats, Reps. Charlie Crist of Florida and Jacky Rosen of Nevada, put Abbas on their payrolls when they took office in January — the time when IT workers would have been setting up the freshmen’s office IT systems and email accounts.

In Pakistan, Imran Awan introduces himself as "from the US Congress" or from federal agencies.

The Pakistan govt apparently considers Imran very important b/c of his representations about his political power in the US.

Imran travels in Pakistan with a VIP police escort.

=====================================================

This could be very easy to unravel. Pres Trump, AG Sessions, and Rex Tillerson need to call in the Pakistani Ambassador for a "little chat." The Pakistani Ambassador surely knows what important issus Imran is "advising" Cong Debbie about.

Call President Trump: Comments: 202-456-1111 Switchboard: 202-456-1414

========================================

(HAT TIP BOOKSHELF) Here’s how to handle it:

<><> About half of House Republicans have signed a letter urging we cut off all aid to Pakistan. They consider it a terrorist-sponsoring nation.

<><> T-Rex calls in the Paki Ambassador, and speaking privately. gives him one week to show up with Wasserman-Schultz’s Haki/Pakis.

<><> Either that or State will support adding Pak to terrorist list.

<><> When the Haki/Pakis appear in his office (as they surely would), T-Rex turns them over to Justice (not the FBI).

<><>Attny Gen then oversees the case and the FBI is given a time certain to provide evidence so they can't Mafia it out.

......the buzz is the Pakistani Muslims were hired by Debbie Wasserman Schultz, she got them security clearances, gargantuan salaries, aided and abetted access to classified intel....and helped them abscond.

POINTS TO PONDER: The more you examine the Paki/infiltration, the more you sense that D/W/S did not act alone on this.......but that fact does not exonerate her treasonous activity.

This gal is super-ambitious. D/W/S actually has a spreadsheet of "people who owe her"....people she did favors for.

D/W/S was especially keen on getting into the good graces of the half-caste Royal Idiot b/c it suited her crass self-serving ambitions.

Strangely enough, on the surface it seemed like the half/caste kept shrugging her off.....as she pursued him w/ a vengeance.

Distilling the info, one concludes, D/W/S was a willing "doer of tasks," but the Royal Idiot had to give the appearance that they were not connected.

The Pakis could not have (A) gotten security clearance, (B) gargantuan salaries, and, (C) absconded.....without some pretty high-level help.

The grotesque salaries are also problematic.....could be one way D/W/S was paid off........campaign contributions, kickbacks, wire-transfers, and the like.

****
Also- and it goes on to say that some were calling these IT guys ghost employees.

When a new Congress would come in, they would have the members of the offices they were servicing vouch for them.” unquote

Spokesmen for Crist and Rosen declined to say who recommended Abbas, despite the availability of many reputable companies and individuals competing for members’ business. They also would not say who set up their offices’ email accounts.

They fled back to Pakistan in March. They made in excess of $160,000 per year. They are all tied to Valarie Jarrett, Huma, Debbie Shultz and Weiner.
