FBI Suspects Members of Congress Leaked Grand Jury Indictment to the Awans
True Pundit ^ | 8/22/17 | Investigative Bureau

Posted on 08/22/2017 9:47:35 AM PDT by Lockbox

FBI agents suspect somebody in Congress tipped off the Awans that they would be indicted and now the criminal cases once-seemingly isolated to a group of rogue Pakistani IT specialists working for Congress suddenly has gotten much larger. And much more troubling.

Federal agents said preceding his arrest, Imran Awan acted like a man who was recently tipped off that he would be pinched and moreover, it was no coincidence Awan’s wife was whisked out of the country in March after sidestepping the FBI at Dulles International Airport to flee to Pakistan.

“She had cardboard boxes for luggage,” one FBI agent said. “The school didn’t even know she took her kids out.”

Now a faction of FBI veterans believe the couple’s puzzling behavior is explained by even more troubling revelations: Information about the Grand Jury convened to investigate Awan and his wife Hina Alvi for bank fraud and illicit money transfers was likely leaked to the Pakistani couple. Awan and Alvi were both former IT workers hired by Democratic Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz. Additionally, Imran and his wife — along with two brothers — performed IT and computer programming work for at least 18 more Democratic lawmakers in Congress. But it was Wasserman, the former chairwoman of the DNC, who kept the pair employed despite the booming criminal case.

I’m sure that Herr Muëller will quickly expand his ever expanding Grand Jury to include this issue!

If you believe that his ‘posse’ will soon jump on that, then I’ve got a beautiful, old, historic bridge for sale, that links Manhatten and Brooklyn. It can be yours for 1,000 Bitcoins.

Who in the DOJ told any member of Congress that an investigation was going on? I mean, how would a member of Congress happen to know an indictment was forthcoming? somebody in the FBI or DOJ had to leak to that member of Congress, first.

Still, Trump can demand Pakistan return her for trial, or else lose US relations. Same with the asshole terrorist that shot up people going to work at Langley.

Unless the culprit sent an email or the conversation was recorded, it will be hard to convict someone of this. The defendant could always claim that he or she had no specific knowledge but gave a general warning to a friend.

But none of this gives the media anything to prove Trump’s collusion with Russia, so nevermind.

Trump should demand Pakistan hand over Zawahiri or cut them off.

Good point. Granted, if they offered them so low that would be a foregone conclusion, that’s one thing. But if they said “I have to leave, I will sell at a bottom basement price to YOU or someone you know...might be interesting to see who YOU is.

My guess is no. There’s no doubt it’s bizarre.

This is one of the best leads on Democrat High Crimes and Treason - it should be blasted every stinkin’ day. The FBI ACTIVELY involved.

And it isn’t. Tells ya pretty much all ya need to know.

We have now moved from “Russia! Russia! Russia!” to Confederate Statues.

Oh, and the eclipse yesterday.

If she was indeed detained, searched and interviewed at the airport - Awan quite understandably would already have been “tipped off” by that alone.

I don’t know. It sounds like they had access to LOTS of info that should have been kept between members of Congress. It is possible that they got the info through that access, and not by someone intentionally tipping them off.

Imagine if something like this had happened to the foreign-born IT staff—say they were Russian—of 18 Republican congressmen?

Would the news media yawn and try to hide it?

Bwahahaha! I crack myself up!

This is starting to look like a spy ring that includes Members of Congress as well as DOJ/FBI officials. Is Sessions awake or have his reins been tightened by the deep state?

Who is the ‘Speaker of the House’? He obviously does not know how to keep House.

If asked by a Congress person, would not either the FBI or DOJ be required to answer? Oversight and all...
