I guess everyone has forgotten the IT company championed by Blabbermouth-Schultz that ran the computer network in the House. It was later discovered to be a direct conduit back to Pakistani Intelligence. The staff and owner fled back to Pakistan; Blabbermouth is still in the House. Also forgotten, in the Zero years OPM hired a company for its network upgrade and overhaul. This company was Latin American in ownership and offshored the work back to Latin America. It was later discovered the staff back there was almost entirely Chinese. Soon after this OPM had the huge network breach were 100s if not millions of files- SF71s, etc. were off-loaded to China. Coincidence I am sure.

Lemma is a (cough) “naturalized US citizen” from Ethiopia, according to court documents. He has worked at various US government agencies since 2019 – including as a help desk technician at the State Department and as an analyst for the Justice Department.

sounds like the awans got out of town before the crack down on espionage?

When this story first broke yesterday, I did not recognize the nationality of the the perp's name.

I actually thought he might be Israeli since the first name was Abraham.

The text of the first news report kept repeating the same useless phrase - "the relevant country" - instead of saying Ethiopia.

I am very relieved to see that this is not another Israel v. USA spy scandal.

“You have no idea how many continental Africans are employed in the federal government”

That’s because they all qualify for Affirmative Action.

Even though they weren’t ever harmed by slavery, or jim crow, or any type of discrimination, they benefit.

Because...they’re African.

So about 1.5 billion people from Africa all outrank any 12th generation American White male the instant they set foot on this soil. Because they are a “victim minority”. Which is hard to understand considering that there are only about 700M White people on the planet, which means there’s at least double their number.

This is the result of 5 decades of outrageous conduct at the EEOC, court decisions affirming that immigrants are also included in protected classes, and continued legislative inaction to stop it.

“What would ethiopia do with it except sell it onward”

I have a friend in Minsk
Who has a friend in Pinsk
Whose friend in Omsk
Has friend in Tomsk
With friend in Akmolinsk
His friend in Alexandrovsk
Has friend in Petropavlovsk
Whose friend somehow is solving now
The problem in Dnepropetrovsk
And when his work is done
Ha-ha! - begins the fun
From Dnepropetrovsk to Petropavlovsk
By way of Iliysk and Novorossiysk
To Alexandrovsk to Akmolinsk
To Tomsk to Omsk to Pinsk to Minsk
To me the news will run
Yes, to me the news will run!

Currently work in an industry that requires security clearances, some of these people barely speak English. We’re f’ed. Prepare accordingly.
