If they simply had four million in salary over this period (eight years)...with federal tax and Maryland or Virginia state tax figured in...they would have only gone home with half their income. I can attest to the various taxes (state tax, property tax, vehicle tax, sales tax, etc).

However, it appears they were very smart in taking their income and plowing this into property purchases (thus getting tax credits....all legal of course), and then easily working the renters into paying the monthly rent in an untraceable situation.

This would come out to $1.3 million over the eight years...which was never taxed by the state or federal folks. Where is the money today? That might be an interesting question to ask.

I might be curious to turn around to the rest of the employees of all Senators and House members, and ask from their staffs....how many of you own two or more homes, and how do you handle monthly rent income? Wanna take a bet that more than forty people are hiding income like this and working for the political leadership?

. . . was the money sent overseas or did something other than paychecks motivate their actions?

I assume the money supported the democrat agenda, which would be why democrats never objected. Top priorities would be funding those who engage in violence against the West in general and against Jews in particular. Their hatred for all that is good would have been more than enough for them to overlook a little corruption from what America's enemies in the Ctrl-Left sees as allies in a good cause.

[Bullish]

Every time the democrats don’t want something talked about in the news they come up with a diversionary tactic to shift the discussion. I wonder what the smoke screen will look like this time.

It would probably take an entire lifetime to root out the corruption that is the democrat party and the swamp. Unfortunately, Trump doesn’t have that much time.

Addressing the Capitol Police . . . The former DNC Chairwoman states

“If a Member loses equipment and it is found by your staff and identified as that member’s equipment and the member is not associated with any case, it is supposed to be returned. Yes or no?”

“We can’t return the equipment,” Police Chief Matthew R. Verderosa told the Florida Democrat.

“I think you’re violating the rules when you conduct your business that way and you should expect that there will be consequences,” . . . Debbie Wasserman Schultz

Hey, Debbie . . . pretty much thinking you are very much associated with this case. In fact, thinking you are pretty much in the center of this case

Hey, Debbie, why would Imran have the password to your laptop? Even your closest aides did not. Pleeeeeeese spare us with your the victim and we are racist routines. Sooooo boring

Here is how it’s looking to me.

DWS employed them to spy on other house members, she then passed this information off to the Clintons and probably Obama.

That’s costs extra above and beyond salaries.

[The_Media_never_lie]

The fact that republicans are not shouting this story from every media outlet tells me lots about the integrity of the republicans.

The mainstream media is spiking the reporting of this story big time. Hannity, having almost lost his job by reporting on Seth Rich’s murder, is under reporting this story. Drudge, as of yesterday, was not reporting this story.

This story is huge and deserves to be over reported!!!

The State Dept is missing 6 BILLION under Hilliary....where is THAT money? Laundered back into the Clinton Crime Family Slush Fund and their co-criminals in the Democrat Party!!

IRS needs to move forward and protect records by seizing all relevant records before they get locked up and unavailable as part of the Obama library..</s >

Paging Mr. Guliani, Mr. Rudy Guliani, please pick up the white courtesy phone.

It appears they attended Charlie Rangel’s course on real estate management.

This makes the 1992 House Bank Scandal look like peanuts.

Somehow it is quite ironic when thieves steal from the left and they don’t seem to even care.

This thread's headline

• "House Dem IT Suspects Wanted Untraceable Payments — And Sure Enough, Millions Disappeared "

  reminds one of another April 7th 2014 headline from Fox:

• $6 Billion Went Missing From Hillary Clinton's State Department...Where Did The Money Go?

  Now consider this [Congressional-Awan Bros. IT/Pakistani ISI scandal] is the singular scandal the public is only now becoming acquainted with. How many other similar infiltrations/thefts from the American treasury have taken place &/or continue to take place? Surely, the Muslim Brotherhood isn't the only group clever enough to penetrate this nation's top security efforts? The Mexican cartels, Cuban and other Latin interests, China ... how much uranium interests were recently exchanged with Russia?

  Given the level of care provided by our nation's top security experts to vet one 'Barrack Hussein Obama's' credentials - why are we shocked that the Awan brothers received "Top Secret Sensitive Compartmented Information Security (TS/SCI) Clearance"?

  Here's a link to the Congressional letter requesting funding and specific clearances for Congressional support staff dated March 2016 so their staffers could obtain “Top Secret — Sensitive Compartmented Information” clearances. TS/SCI is the highest-level security classification. " signed by

Call me a conspiracy theorist, but here’s one reason this story is being under-reported: any reporter/journalist who isn’t a big name, and who investigates this story, puts himself at risk of being murdered. Most of these Pakistani IT folks got themselves out of the country pretty quickly, wiring money before they went, when the walls started closing in. If this story could lead to the political downfall of several people, how tough would it be for one of these shady characters to pay someone, say, 10k to shoot some DC reporter in the head?

[Don Corleone]

A lot of that money probably was recycled as campaign contributions.

[Vaduz]

Wanted Untraceable Payments sounds like what Watergate was all about.

[bgill]

More likely BILLIONS disappeared along with top secret intel.

[txrefugee]

Sounds like a massive money laundering operation under the auspices of the DCN. Too bad Bob “Blood Dog” Mueller is busy trying to find a crime to impeach Trump for or that modern Dick (Tracy) could be on the trail of millions in mysterious payments to Pakistan through the Awan clan. There are really BIG name Dems who ought to go to prison for this, but probably won’t because prisons are for the Little People.
