Congressional technology aides are baffled that data-theft allegations against four former House IT workers who were banned from the congressional network have largely been ignored, and they fear the integrity of sensitive high-level information.
Five Capitol Hill technology aides told The Daily Caller News Foundations Investigative Group that members of Congress have displayed an inexplicable and intense loyalty towards the suspects who police say victimized them. The baffled aides wonder if the suspects are blackmailing representatives based on the contents of their emails and files, to which they had full access.
I dont know what they have, but they have something on someone. Its been months at this point with no arrests, said Pat Sowers, who has managed IT for several House offices for 12 years. Something is rotten in Denmark.
A manager at a tech-services company that works with Democratic House offices said he approached congressional offices, offering their services at one-fourth the price of Awan and his Pakistani brothers, but the members declined. At the time, he couldnt understand why his offers were rejected but now he suspects the Awans exerted some type of leverage over members.
Theres no question about it: If I was accused of a tenth of what these guys are accused of, theyd take me out in handcuffs that same day, and Id never work again, he said.

I have said for some time you will either get Trump’s agenda-—most of the illegals cleared out, no Paris, no TPP, mega economic growth-—or you will get MAYBE one of them in jail. You won’t get both. The size of the struggle and the lack of allies in the House and Senate (not to mention the Deep State FBI/CIA) are so great that Trump/Sessions “might” get one if that’s all they did for four years.
So am I “ok?” I guess it depends on your definition of ok. I would gladly trade Cankles’ conviction for all the former things. She will eventually go away. No, the “rule of law” won’t be destroyed. But if we allow illegals in, sign on to Paris, etc, then there will never, ever be a rule of law.
No, I don’t think we’ll “get them” years from now. The only time is in the next year if SOME of these investigations go where they need to go. But actually convicting one of them would cause a civil war that makes the current “resist” thing look like a peace rally.
Ok, well if that is all you expected then I guess YOU will be happy. You didn’t mention REPEALING Obamacare or building the wall. These were cornerstones of his campaign. Also the idea of draining the swamp seems more or less like you’re willing to admit defeat when Trump should be exposing it and Sessions going after them like a pitbull unless “he” is part of it which I suspect he is, which is why he will take the road you are suggesting like ditching the Paris deal and TPP. Mega economic growth was sort of expected as anything that was not Obama in the sense of sabotaging our own country would show huge economic gains just by Obama not trying to kill America by a thousand cuts. I and others think if we let these treasonous criminals skate then all other bets are off and his presidency will be picked apart by the leftists and media.
The wall will be built. Bids are coming in now. I think it will be built with or without funds designated by Congress (although I expect that to happen).
I didn’t admit defeat or anything like it. I said you had a choice. No administration can do everything. Reagan learned early on that he could not balance the budget and grow the economy and defeat the Soviets. He got two of three.
Yes, without Congress Trump must take the road I’m suggesting. There is no other road. I’d like you to explain to me how he can do anything else if Congress doesn’t appropriate the money for his programs.
Absolutely, NO. Mega economic growth was NOT expected. Just two weeks ago, the Atlanta Fed was still saying economic growth might be 1%. Then they suddenly changed it to 3.7%, then to 4.2%. Nobody but Trump’s people has claimed anything over 4% was even possible.
As to what happens to these “treasonous criminals,” who knows, but anyone who deserts Trump, by far the MOST SUCCESSFUL PRESIDENT EVER in his first 120 days and already on track to be one of the greatest ever (especially WITHOUT any support), well, I have no words.
