Former Obama Staffer Busted for Stealing Iowa Secretary of State's Identity

Barack Obama’s 2008 Iowa New Media Director was arrested Friday for attempting to use the identities of Secretary of State Matt Schultz, and/or his brother Thomas, with the intent to falsely implicate the Secretary Schultz in illegal or unethical behavior. Zach Edwards, 29, of Des Moines, currently works for Link Strategies, a Democrat-affiliated organization with ties to Iowa Senator Tom Harkin. Edwards is the Director of New Media for Link Strategies.

The Secretary of State’s office discovered the alleged crime and reported it to authorities. Edwards turned himself in to the Iowa DCI agents Friday afternoon. He was charged with identity theft, a misdemeanor, and booked into the Polk County jail. Edwards posted $2,000 bail and was released later on Friday. He faces up to two years in prison.

That’s quite the feat when there’s only 7 networks.

(I know there’s probably more, but it wouldn’t be as funny.)

How could it be a misdemeaner if he faces up to two years in prison, that would be a felony!

We are infiltrated by treasonous snakes. They wanted him removed from his office so they could place one of their cheaters or someone inexperienced in dealing with their cheating in his seat.
