Democratic IT aide Imran Awan solicited a bribe from an IT vendor in exchange for contracting opportunities with the office of then-Rep. Gwen Graham, the vendor alleged to The Daily Caller News Foundation, adding that Imran spoke to him in detail about his alleged financial fraud schemes in the House.
The Department of Justice knows of the source the longtime owner of a major House IT company and what he is prepared to testify, a high-level official in Jeff Sessions DOJ with knowledge of the investigation confirmed. But the vendor said no law enforcement ever even tried to interview them.
**SNIP**
Imran said, There is this new member from Florida named Graham, lets make a deal and Ill get you into this office, the vendor said. He was clear in his allegation that Imran was soliciting a cash bribe.

ANOTHER VERSION OF HOW THE HOUSE DEMOCRAT IT SCAM WORKED:
CDW Government, Inc (approved tech supplier to the US govt) knowingly accepted falsified invoices from House members who employed the Awans. The invoices routinely showed high-priced tech items falsely billed at just under the $500.00 ......the cutoff rule that kept the purchases off the House tracking radar.
<><> CDW Government, Inc then made up the difference in the actual price by rigging the cost of a service plan.
<><> More shockingly, CDW Government Inc. then shipped the equipment..... not to the Congressional office that ordered it...... but to Imrans house.
Could be major kickbacks involved. The paper trail is readily available.
Cong Yvette Clarke and all of the House Democrats that employed the Awans should be audited and complete
investigations of their IT transactions, as well as House office and financial records should commence:
<><> payroll, vouchers, expense accounts, office expenditures,
<><> travel itinerary, credit card accounts, family finances,
<><> campaign income and outgo,
<><>personal/office/campaign bank accounts,
<><> wire-transfers, snail mail, email, UPS packages,
<><> electronic devices, hard drives, spreadsheets, text files, etc etc etc.
SHOCKER-—IMRAN AWAN, US GOVT EMPLOYEE, WORKED DEMOCRAT HOUSE INTEL IN PAKISTAN
Cong Louis Gohmert (Repub-Texas), a former judge, was shocked to learn that Imran Awan conducted the Congress of
the United States’ IT work in Pakistan, for months at a time, without supervision.
GOHMERT: I did not realize that we (taxpayers) paid someone the maximum that any House employee could get paid........ and for months at a time, he was handling information technology for the House of Representatives from Pakistan. This is just mind-boggling. I had no idea anybody would even think about trying to do something like that, Gohmert added.
Imran is a US govt employee. He cashes US govt paychecks. He’s handling Congressional data——sensitive top secret data-—he’s in an active terrorist country for months at a time handling US intel without supervision. Yet his mentor and employer Democrat Debbie Wasserman Schultz did nothing. Congressional Democrats who employed Imran said nothing.
Taxpayers must demand answers:
<><> How did Awan get a sensitive job in the US Congress?
<><> Was he given preference over American job-seekers?
<><> Claiming to be a naturalized American citizen, did he falsify his credentials?
<><> did Democrat Debbie Wassermann Schultz sign-off on Imran’s trips to Pakistan?
<><> did Democrat Schultz inform others that Imran conducted IT work for the House in Pakistan?
<><> did Democrats inform constituents their emails were being accessed in a terrorist-sponsored country?
<><> why did Debbie Wasserman Schultz keep Imran on as her “advisor” after his shady deals were exposed?
TAXPAYERS DEMAND TO KNOW WHY WASSERMAN SCHULTZ AND DEMOCRATS ALLOWED A US GOVT EMPLOYEE TO HANDLE US INTEL AND THEIR AMERICAN CONSTITUENTS’ PERSONAL EMAILS IN A TERRORIST-SPONSORD COUNTRY
Wassermann Schultz installed Imran and his clan of two brothers, two wives, one a Russian national, one known friend, and a host of ghost employees in the US Congress. Taxpayers demand to know the extent of Schultz’s assistance to (A) the three House members of the House intelligence panel, and, (B) the five House members of the House Committee on Foreign Affairs, among the dozens of elected Democrats employing the Pakistani IT’s.

Most taxpayers struggle to make a living and do not have much free time for other things. But Imran was a US govt employee working exclusively for House Democrats.
Imran got hired by and was mentored by Democrat Cong Debbie Schultz. As a Democrat employee, Imran found plenty of time (and had mucho tax dollars) to pursue his private money-making interests:
<><> He’s listed as a real estate broker, confirming he spends 40 hours a week as a broker;
<><> he owned 12-or so houses....
<><> he rented out some of these homes....
<><> he ran a car dealership....
<><> he ran an export company to Pakistan
<><> he had a computer systems sales company (selling stolen govt gear?)
<><> Imran ran a Blackberry cell phone repair operation.
Imran’s thirst for money was unquenchable. He falsified
apps to get several home loans from the Congressional Credit Union.
He got the credit union to wire- transfer monies abroad.
QUESTION: Did Debbie DEMento have to sign off on her employee’s shady mega-dollar transactions at the Congressional Federal Credit Union? Particularly Imran’s shady wire- transfer of some 300,00 tax dollars to Pakistan?
Why isnt this Pakigate not being investigated? Doesnt Ryan run the House. This is worse than the house bank scandal.
No one has been charged YET. They will be.
We should rename the “Justice department” to the “CoverUP department”.
What was Debbie’s cut on bribes?
Bttt!
Awan was aiding and abetting House Democrats rip off the US government (read taxpayers).
<><> as a House IT, Awan would prepare 2 falsified invoices for $499, fraudulently itemizing, parts, or such.
<><> Dems would sign off, et viola, free iphones. For them AND their staffs.
This added up to millions of dollars of govt fraud and involved dozens of Democrat House members who employed Awan.
FBI: Debbie Wasserman Schultz Pressured Congressional
Federal Credit Union to Give Loan to Awan and Wife
True Pundit ^ | 8/8/2017 | by Investigative Bureau / FR Posted by b4its2late
Democratic Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz pressured officials at Congressional Federal Credit Union to write a loan to a husband and wife from Pakistan now charged and accused of bank fraud, according to federal law enforcement sources.
Wasserman Schultz, who was the leader of the Democratic National Committee at the time, intervened in the loan process to help guarantee Imran Awan and wife Hina Alvi a $165,000 loan which the couple quickly wired to Pakistan far from the reach of US regulators, FBI sources confirm. Imran was arrested on bank fraud charges in July while attempting to flee to Pakistan. His wife fled the country to Pakistan in March after the FBI caught her at Dulles International Airport with undocumented cash. She was suspected of bank fraud by the FBI who allowed her to leave the country anyway.
Awan, until his arrest, was employed as the IT specialist for Wasserman Schultz and dozens of other congressional Democrats since 2004. His wife was also on the congressional payroll. The Congressional Federal Credit Union is not open to the public but is normally reserved for Congress and members of their staffs.
According to FBI sources familiar with the criminal case, Congressional Federal Credit Union officials were hesitant to write the couple the loan because underwriters flagged portions of the Awans application as problematic and risk loaded. That was until Wasserman Schultz is believed to have made overtures to the federally-backed credit union to vouch for Awan and his spouse. FBI sources said the home equity credit line was approved despite the red flags, namely: The Awans rented the home linked to the loan application, but the FBI said the bank does not extend home equity lines to rental properties. The Awans never told the bank it was a rental property, the FBI said.
FBI sources would not confirm whether Wasserman Schultz wrote letters or emails to bank hierarchy or made telephone calls to push for the loan. Likewise, FBI sources did not confirm whether Wasserman Schultz was the target of a parallel FBI investigation.
Loan officers and underwriters made several inquiries to the Awans during the loan application process to try to clear up glaring discrepancies. according to the FBI. Emails sent by Awan and his wife to the credit unions underwriters originated from an IP address linked to Wasserman Schultzs congressional offices, FBI sources confirmed.
According to the FBI, the Awans omitted assets and liabilities both on the bank application as well as their federal tax returns which improved their debt-to-income ratio. But underwriters at CFCU caught these errors and wanted additional documentation on outstanding mortgages and rental income linked to the Awans which were never disclosed by the couple. In January 2017, CFCU requested Alvi file an Occupancy and Financial Status Affidavit to prove the couple was using the address as a primary residence (even though they were not), according to the FBI. Days later the loan was approved.
During that waiting period, Awan and his wife made several inquiries into the status of the loan, again, via email from computer networks linked to Congress, FBI sources said.
Within hours of the loan approval on Jan. 18, 2017 at noon Awans wife Alvi requested the $165,000 loan plus an additional $118,000 from her CFCU accounts be wired to two individuals in Faisalabad, Pakistan, according to bank records.
But before the credit union initiated the international wire request for $283,000 to Pakistan, officials from CFCU contacted Alvi on her cell phone to confirm the wire, according to the FBI. Bank officials initially balked at commencing the wire transfer because Imran changed his voice on the phone to pose as his wife. First he said the funds were to be used in Pakistan for funeral arrangements, the FBI said. Then Imran, still in character posing as his wife, changed gears after CFCU said they were not going to wire the funds. Imran said on the call he would search online for a permissible reason to wire the funds, according to the FBI. Imran again posing as his wife claimed the funds were for a purchase pf property and not for a funeral. After a delay, the funds were wired to Pakistan, FBI sources said. The call was tape recorded and is now in evidence in the Awan fraud case.
FBI sources would not say whether Wasserman Schultz intervened to push CFCU to proceed with the problematic wire transfers. FBI sources said that CFCU officials did suspect Imran was using a female voice to pose as his wife who originally initiated the wire request electronically.
Yet the funds were still wired.
Awan and his wife, as well as his two brothers are also targets of an investigation into an alleged procurement scam where the group is suspected of stealing equipment, Blackberry phones, and hacking House IT systems without permission. Wasserman Schultz could not be reached for comment.
The Paki scam quickly exploded into:
<><> (A) multiple charges of conspiracy against the United States of America,
<><>(B) double-billing Congress,
<><> (C) placing ghost employees on the govt payroll,
<><> (D) stealing govt issue electronics,
<><>(E) submitting falsified documents to the US govt,
<><> (F) mortgage scams,
<><>(G) shady wire transfers to Pakistan, and,
<><>(H) Congressional bank fraud.
Democrats hired this bunch to boost their diversity credentials....sucking up for votes is never far from their small minds.
