Wasserman Schultz Avoiding Reporters Since Awan Arrest
Daily Calller ^ | 28 Jul 2017 | Kerry Pickect

WASHINGTON — Embattled Democratic Florida Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz has avoided facing any media since her law enforcement arrested her former IT staffer Imran Awan Tuesday on bank fraud charges.

Wasserman Schultz, who walked down the House Capitol steps late Wednesday afternoon following remarks she made on the floor, caught site of The Daily Caller’s reporter and nervously turned around and ran back up the steps with her staffer in tow.

The Miami Herald reported Thursday night that her spokesman told a reporter Wednesday, as she walked to the floor of the House, that she would not answer questions about Awan.

The Florida Democrat has strictly communicated through office spokesman statements on the matter and even those responses appear to be contradictory.

When the story of Awan’s arrest first broke, Wasserman spokesman David Damron released a statement telling media:

“Mr. Awan previously served as a part-time employee but his services have been terminated,” He added, “No charges, evidence or findings from the investigation have been formally shared with our office, so we cannot comment on them.”

"Wasserman Schultz, who walked down the House Capitol steps... caught site of The Daily Caller’s reporter and nervously turned around and ran back up the steps with her staffer in tow."

rofl, I love it!! The POS is afraid to answer any questions. There is nothing she can say that will make sense or sound honest & plausible, so she must hide from the press. Alas, the Mediascum still doesn't cover this huge story, so it's not too hard on DWS... so far.

Let me guess, the women reporters at the alphabet networks probably cooed in sympathy concerning this person. In reality, she belongs locked up in a jail cell for a very long period of time (certainly longer than Martha Stewart or Conrad Black).

Just look at all the times Democrats have been held responsible for their crimes.......Never have, never will.
Its part of the deal Republicans have made with Democrats, the Democrats can steal all the money they want and the Republicans can make money for their business masters.

Wait a minute. They were paying him a 6 figure salary for “part time” work? This is really stinking to high hell.

Don’t be surprised if DWS has an unfortunate accident.

Yeah, the Clinton goons can get to her anywhere.

I’m sure she knows that. She has bigger problems than the press; assuming the press actually did a real job.

If they think she’ll talk.......

I doubt if Awan lasts long enough to testify.
