NY Post op-ed writer, Paul Sperry, authored " Infiltration: How Muslim Spies and Subversives Have Penetrated Washington." Sperry recently laid out in detail the threat that disgraced Democrat, Florida Cong Debbie Wasserman Schultz, poses to US national security.
Sperry wrote:“ Computer security at the DNC was so lax on Wasserman Schultz’s watch that hackers burrowed deep into the network, leading to a massive data breach. They were thwarted when the self-same hackers tried to infiltrate Schultz’s Republican counterparts.
When the FBI tried to investigate the cyber-crime, Wasserman Schultz refused to cooperate. She wouldn’t let forensic experts at the FBI’s lab in Quantico examine the targeted server and collect the digital fingerprints needed to nail the intruders. Now we discover that Wasserman Schultz couldn’t really give a rip about cyber-security in Congress, either.
After the Capitol Police this year began investigating her trusted staffer, Imran Awan, for theft of congressional data and procurement fraud, Politico reported, every Democrat who had contracted with him eventually fired him. Everyone, that is, except Wasserman Schultz. It wasn’t until last month, when the FBI arrested Awan for bank fraud, that the Democratic leader finally sacked him.
The FBI says Awan bilked the Congressional Federal Credit Union out of $165,000, which he immediately wrapped into a $283,000 wire transfer to Pakistan. Agents collared him as he was boarding a flight for Pakistan.
In an interview with her local paper, Wasserman Schultz revealed she kept Awan around to do other IT work even after authorities suspended his access to the Capitol computer network. Worse, she said she continued to employ him to work on printers, Web sites and software despite learning he transferred sensitive congressional data outside the secure network to an unauthorized offsite storage location.
Sperry rejected Wasserman Schultz’s “claims that she defended Awan to the bitter end, because he’s Muslim and she didn’t want to see him demonized in an Islamophobic witch hunt.” Sperry responded by saying: “But that excuse doesn’t cut ice. Awan exhibited a pattern of shady behavior over the course of his employment. Yet instead of questioning him, she covered for him — and endangered the security of Congress’ computer networks in the process.”
Wasserman Schultz was forced to resign as chair of the DNC July 2016 after it was revealed that she had conspired to sabotage the campaign of Senator Bernie Sanders.
Immediately after her resignation from the DNC, Wasserman Schultz was given a position in Hillary Clinton’s 2016 failed campaign for President.
A week ago, as discussed here in The Gateway Pundit, Rep. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) called on the Trump White House to freeze the assets of Awan amid reports that Schultz may be subject to criminal investigation over her curious ties to the Pakistani IT staffer.Numerous people are questioning why exactly Congresswoman Schultz has exhibited such dedicated loyalty to the IT staffer when others did not.
Last Friday, Rush Limbaugh noted that: “[I]t reads like there was something else going on between these two other than just a work relationship ’cause these flimsy excuses here that she is offering really don’t hold any water.”
The articulate sister duo, “Diamond and Silk,” (pro-Trumpers) questioned the nature of the relationship between Schultz and Awan last week on this writer’s podcast Backlash. She asked: “Was she dating this guy?” “Diamond” had opined: “But what I don’t understand is: Why isn’t the media talking about that? You know, you wake up, all you’re hearing about is the ‘Russia, Russia, Russia’ stuff. But why aren’t they talking about the DNC, and Debbie Wasserman Schultz, and this guy.”
Regarding what voters in her district should do about Wasserman Schultz’s corruption, Sperry wrote: “Many voters rejected Hillary Clinton because they thought she couldn’t be trusted with national secrets after her reckless handling of sensitive State Department e-mails. Florida voters ought to dispatch Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz for the same reason. … Such negligence should not be rewarded with another term in office.”
Wasserman Schultz is expected to be challenged again in November 2018 by Republican Joe Kaufman, who ran against her in 2014 and 2016 as well. Kaufman cut the margin by which he lost to Wasserman Schultz in th heavily Democratic 23rd Congressional District of Florida from 25.4% in 2014 to 15.8% in 2016.Candidate Kaufman, on Backlash last week, made reference to Wasserman’s threats of “consequences” to the chief of the U.S. Capitol Police for holding IT equipment as evidence that she claimed belonged to her.
Kaufman said: “Debbie Wasserman Schultz should be arrested for trying to inhibit the police from investigating Awan and his
brothers … that’s exactly what she was doing.”

“she kept Awan around to do other IT work even after authorities suspended his access”
Was she letting him steal US government secrets and pad his bills in return for sexual services?
At least one of the major media is covering this scandal. It just sent off letters (real letters) to every Republican on the Senate and House Committees charged with investigating such things. Congressman DeSantis was one of them.
The Chia Pet!
I’m sure DWS should be arrested but she needs to undergo a proper and thorough investigation first. If the DOJ were investigating her, would we know? I suspect not, until and unless she is charged with crime(s).
Her
Up!
And the FBI was too stupid to catch this.
Or the FBI was complicit.
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) gotten visas .....without some pretty high-level help.
The grotesque salaries could be one way D/W/S and Hill Democrats got paid off........via campaign contributions, kickbacks, wire-transfers, and the like.

DWS looks like a seventh grader circa 1958 or so.
The top ranks of a number of the Agencies are riddled with Moslems.Imam Hussein saw to that.
Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley has requested copies of immigration files for the six Pakistani suspects in the House IT scandal, who allegedly stole equipment from Congress and accessed computers without permission. Grassley is seeking more information on Imran Awan, his wife, his two brothers and two of his close friends in connection to the scandal. Capitol police have accused Awan and his associates of violating congressional security policies and stealing equipment from Congress. Awan is from Pakistan, and was arrested by the FBI in July as he boarded a flight to the country.
“In light of the alleged illegal activity, the committee seeks to better understand Awan and his associates’ immigration histories,” Grassley said in an August 4 letter to Acting Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security Elaine Duke. The letter was made public by the committee Monday. “Therefore, please provide the Alien File for the individuals listed below,” he continued. “Please also include any temporary files, working files, and all documents and items contained in them that were generated by DHS or in its possession.”
Besides Awan, immigration files were requested for his wife, Hina Alvi, his brothers Abid and Jamal, sister-in-law Natalia Sova and friend Rao Rabbas. All are suspects in the criminal investigation, which became public in February.
“Awan began working as an IT aide in 2004,” Grassley said in the letter. “Later, his wife, two brothers, and two friends began working as IT aides for nearly 30 congressmen. Over the span of 13 years, they collected more than $4 million— a sum that is reported to be three times higher than the norm for a government contractor.”
All of the congressmen involved are House Democrats, including several on the intelligence, foreign affairs and homeland security committees. The IT aides had access to all of the emails and office files of the congressmen, who employed them on a shared basis.
The employment of all of the suspects was terminated in February, except Awan’s wife, who was retained by Democratic Rep. Wasserman Schultz until March. Wasserman Schultz — the Florida Democrat who was Democratic National Committee Chairman until July 2016 — kept Awan on her payroll until July 25.
Awan was arrested July 24 at Dulles International Airport by the FBI, U.S. Capitol Police and U.S. Customs and Border Protection before he could board the flight to Pakistan. His wife returned to Pakistan in March, along with their three children.
Authorities charged Awan with bank fraud in connection with a $165,000 mortgage loan from the Wright Patman Congressional Federal Credit Union. Awan wire transferred $283,000 to Pakistan prior to his attempt to flee the country, according to a court document filed by the FBI.
Within hours of his arrest, Imran Awan retained Chris Gowen as his defense attorney. Gowen is a long-time associate of former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.

Exactly. Maybe Seal Team 6 was due to Awan spying network, via traitor Wasserman-S...
Thank you...
Three brothers who managed office IT for government officials were relieved of their duties last week on suspicion that they accessed specific computer networks without permission, also known as hacking. Abid, Imran, and Jamal Awan were barred from computer networks at the House of Representatives Thursday. They accessed computers unauthorized. They were getting foreign information. The three brothers were making $161,000, $165,000, and $160,000.
One of the brothers has a criminal background.
Now this… The three brothers funneled House data to an external server. The Daily Caller reported:
Chiefs of staff for dozens of Democratic lawmakers who employed the four were informed last week that a criminal probe was underway into their use of congressional information technology systems, including the existence of an external server to which House data was being funneled, and into the theft of and overbilling for computer equipment.
Brothers Imran, Abid, and Jamal Awan and Hina Alvi, Imran’s wife, each made $160,000 a year as information technology workers for the House. Their salaries and time were shared among dozens of Democratic members, including former Democratic National Committee Chairman Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz of Florida.
(The Paki clan's friend, Rao Abbas, collected tax dollars as a govt IT employee---but never showed up for work. He lived in the basement of a rental home----one of 12 homes owned by Imram.)
The Paki clan's US govt employers included lawmakers.....members of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence and the House Committee on Foreign Affairs, and Homeland Security.
Despite the generous salaries, the four were involved in multiple suspicious mortgage transfers and a debt-evading bankruptcy. Abid had more than $1 million in debts following a failed business called Cars International that he ran in Falls Church, Va., from November 2009 to September 2010. Business associates said in court documents that Abid had stolen money and vehicles from them. One victim of Imram who complained, was reportedly found dead.
It’s unclear how Abid found time to run an automotive business while working full-time for Congress. He had been on the congressional payroll since 2005. A congressional credit union repossessed two of his personal cars before the business folded.
