'The American people deserve to know the truth to this'
In a report on the bizarre scandal centering on Pakistani-born Democratic congressional IT aides, a House investigation concluded the aides accessed the data of members for whom they did not work, sometimes logging in as lawmakers to cover their tracks.
The report summarizing the findings of a four-month internal investigation that said the behavior of the aides mirrored a “classic method for insiders to exfiltrate data from an organization,” the Daily Caller News Foundation reported.
Authorities said there is evidence the members’ data may have been aggregated onto one server, which then was physically stolen.
As WND reported, IT staffer Imran Awan, his brothers Abid and Jamal, and their wives Natalia Sova and Hina Alvi, were highly paid IT administrators working for dozens of House Democrats until Capitol Police began probing them in early 2017.
The IT staffers allegedly ran a ghost employee scheme with a take of nearly $6 million over the years.
After wiring approximately $300,000 to his native Pakistan in July, Imran Awan was arrested by the FBI at Dulles International Airport. He was then indicted on four counts of bank fraud in connection with his wire transfer. He was carrying $12,000 in cash on him at the time of his arrest.
The loss of taxpayers’ dollars is “not the highest of our concerns,” Rep. Steve King, R-Iowa, told WND in an interview last fall about the case.

When does the Awan crime family go on trial?
Poor old Jeff Sessions—asleep at the switch.
An honest media would make this the biggest espionage scandal of all time.
"the pattern of login activity suggests steps are being taken to conceal their activity.”
...remote sessions on computers of members that remained active for months at a time.
Every company I've worked for terminated all my systems access on my last day of employment. We had stringent security checklists that numerous managers had to sign-off on that access was terminated and all physical things were turned in. How the HELL could our federal government be so inept as to not shut off access for MONTHS?
It is WAY PAST Rosenberg Time.
Spies. Why isn’t DWS listed as part of the scam? She surely got something out of it for helping to set it up.
when does her sentence start for rigging the primaries?
Isn’t the DNC lawsuit still going forward. Even after the two murders of potential witnesses. (She should be happy to be still alive )
A short rope with Debbies name on it!
Our government as founded is worthless. The fundamental rule of law is a joke.
Arn’t they only being tried for Bank fraud? I am not sure if I have that right.
I’d find it fulfilling if traitors were hanged from trees on the WDC Mall until they rotted away.
Holy Crap Batman! Did we have another Democratic Administration that was infiltrated by enemies of the nation like FDR’s?
These libturds are deep and to expunge them completely it is going to take more than just a screw driver and a ball pin hammer.
When it all happens, due to Jeff Session's personal direction, the turds will fly so fast you better have a substantial umbrella.
My guess was that the bank fraud charge provided a way to keep them in the country while their much more serious serious computer-related crimes could be investigated. I could easily be wrong.
so why is this slug out of jail?
And Session’s is to Obsessed with Weed to go after traitors, criminals, spies etc.
