BACKSTORY Disastrous National Security Breach in U.S. Congress / By Doug Hagmann / FR POSTED March 20, 2017
On February 2, 2017, three Pakistani brothers with top access to the computer systems inside the U.S. House of Representatives containing some of the nations most sensitive information were removed from their positions by U.S. Capitol Police. The three brothers who are the target of a criminal probe, deliberately understated as a procurement scam include Imran Awan, Abid Awan and Jamal Moiz Awan, each who were the shared employees of at least 31 Democratic Congressional Representatives. But the case itself and potential damage is much, much worse than is being reported, if its being reported at all.
While the corporate media is obviously more intent to prove some nebulous cyber connection between President Donald Trump and the Russians, they have yet to pay even the most basic lip service to this case of apparent espionage that has taken place at the highest levels of our government. The Paki brothers had complete and direct access to information of three extremely sensitive committees: The House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, the Homeland Security Committee and the House Foreign Affairs Committee. The access to the information they had, along with their known or suspected affiliations to such groups as Hezbollah and the Muslim Brotherhood, has shaken government insiders with knowledge about the case.
Imran Awan has been identified as the groups leader, initially providing computer services for Florida Democrat and former Democratic National Committee (DNC) chairman Representative Debbie Wasserman Schultz. Recall that it was Schultzs email which was hacked during the 2016 election when she served as DNC Chairman.
Among the House members who presently employed the services of ring leader Imran Awan were Andre Carson, the second Muslim member of the House of Representatives, as did Congresswoman Jackie Speier. On March 22, 2016, it was Jackie Speier, one of eight House members who asked for additional funding so that the Awan clan could secure Top Secret/SCI level clearance.
Additionally, it was revealed that these employees were paid more than three times the salary of a normal IT worker, grossing upwards of $4 million dollars combined during their tenure as IT professionals. While the average government IT professional earns about $55,000 per year, Imran Awan was being paid $165,130, Abid Awan grossed $164,980 per annum, and Jamal Awan $157,577 according to government records.
Further investigation, however, found that the three brothers were merely the core infiltrators. Also on the government payroll were Hina R. Alvi, wife of Imran Awan, who was paid $168,300 per year and Natalia Sova, wife of Abid Awan, who was paid a meager $34,854.
And, it gets worse. Investigators determined that not only did the Awan clan have access to highly sensitive information, they set up an external server and copied information from Congressional computers to their off-site server, reportedly stealing documents, records, emails and other sensitive and classified information to the server under their sole control.
=============================================
UPDATE House members are in hiding, refusing to talk about the security breach and the fact that Americans' persona and financial interests may have been jeopardized. The Paki/hackers worked exclusively for House Democrats. Paki/hackers total access to Democrats' official emails, is a huge problem for stupid, gullible House Democrats that employed the gang.
B/c the Paki/hackers had access to hundreds of Americans' Social Security numbers, IRS tax ID'S, and so on. Not to mention having inside info on the operations of dozens of US agencies....including the IRS.
REALITY CHECK When a constituent contacts their Rep w/ a problem, the member requires a Social Security number and tax ID number to navigate US govt agencies.
Yet, not one Democrat has surfaced expressing concern for their constituents, not one Democrat took the time to warn constituents their privacy may have been invaded and their interests compromised.
On the contrary, as many as 80 Democrats employing the Paki/hackers are in hiding, unwilling to admit to their utter stupidity in the name of diversity. The Awans struck a goldmine---could be peddling Americans' SS and tax ID numbers all over the globe.
=========================================
TIME TO HIT BACK HARD---Demand that the names of the Democrats who employed these Paki/hackers be revealed, so that constituents can protect their interests.
SPREAD THE WORD: Constituents who had their privacy invaded have a good case against the gullible irresponsible
Democrat members.
BO probably flew them to their homeland.
Bush brought in foreign nationals who had helped our military and were in danger of being killed because of their help.
Utter bull shit.
This IT group of hackers has been going on for 12 years, since 2004.
Good gawd...
Dallas Texas 2006, during war time, under Republican George Bush.
500,000 illegal aliens emboldened by Bush march on Dallas Texas pushing foreign flags in our faces and while making demands and threats. All while Bush celebrated Cinco De Mayo up in the White House each year...During war time.
For all intents and purposes...just like what hillary did.
Because the government, at that time, was headed up by none other than the Kenyan himself. Makse sense when we look at the bigger picture through the lens of a usurper.
During the Bush era, they were finding people who had illegally entered this country during war time and were
working in and around our nuclear submarine pens?
Did ya know it was discovered Bush’s own Homeland Security Boss Chertoff, had people who were wandering around Chertoff’s private residence who’d entered the country illegally?
On Feb. 2, the Capitol Police met with chiefs of staff for the members employing the Awans and informed them of the investigation. Following the meeting, the Awans were terminated by some of the House Democrats, but it is unclear how many have parted ways with the suspects.
Along with the Democratic Caucus, Democrat House members who employed the Awans are listed below:
Marcia Fudge(D-OH)
Tim Ryan (D-OH)
Jim Costa (D-CA)
Sander M. Levin (D-MI)

Feb 15 - According to Politico, Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz and Rep. Gregory Meeks are two Democratic lawmakers who have still not cut ties with the four. At this time we are continuing to gather information from House officials and will determine the best approach to move forward once we have reviewed that information, David Damron, communications director for Wasserman Schultz, said in an email when asked by POLITICO if Imran Awan was still working for the Florida Democrat.

*** FORMER DNC HEAD DEBBIE WASSERMAN SCHULTZ ***
“At the request of Members of Congress, the United States Capitol Police are investigating the actions of House IT support staff. No Members are being investigated.
http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/congressional-it-contractors-under-investigation/article/2613795
They’re all Democrats.
Just like when the DNC refused to let the FBI investigate their e-mail systems the Democrats have refused to let the FBI investigate the Awan’s espionage, instead insisting it be handled by Capitol Police.
Call President Trump: Comments: 202-456-1111 Switchboard: 202-456-1414
ITEM---Imran is apparently considered very important b/c of his representations about his political power in the US.
ITEM--- Imran travels in Pakistan with a VIP police escort.
=====================================================
That should be very easy to unravel.
Pres Trump, AG Sessions, and Rex Tillerson need to call in the Pakistani Ambassador for a "little chat."

The Muslim brothers (Imran here) seemed to be friendly w/ the Clintons.
It's very odd to see a lowly Capitol Hill staffer get that close to a bigshot Clinton.
<><> Did the brothers share Democrats' Capitol Hill data w/ the Clintons?
<><> Did the Clintons order data coming into the DNC computers?
Trickling in is compelling evidence that they overbilled the stupid Democrats .......and also stole US govt property. The number of Democrats who employed these criminals could number as high as 80 Democrat members.
Did any Democrats express concern about Muslim foreigners accessing sensitive US intel?
Did any Democrats express concern that US taxpayers were being bilked by overbilling?
Did any Democrats file police reports?
<><> for stolen govt property?
<><> falsifying official govt documents?
<><> falsifying payment vouchers?
I didn't think so.
================================================
Let's just help out and report it for them (smirk)

The eight Democrat members issued a letter to then DNC-Chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz. The Democrat Congressmen demanded that their staffers be granted access to top secret classified information.
The signatories to the letter were Democrat Congressmen (a) Andre Carson, (b) Luis Guiterez, (c) Jim Himes, (d) Terri Sewell, (e) Jackie Speier, (f) Mike Quigley, (g) Eric Swalwell, and, (h) Patrick Murphy.
Some of the named Democrats had a history of attempting to undermine national security. Two Democrats have been linked to an emerging security breach.
The office of Andre Carson, the second Muslim in Congress, employed ITer Imran Awan. As did the offices of Jackie Speier and Cong Debbie Wasserman Schultz (then DNC Chair).
The Democrats letter demanding intel access had been addressed to then-DNC Chair Cong Debbie Wasserman Schultz.
