Wasserman Schultz Says She “Did The Right Thing”, Claims Fired IT Staffer Is Being Targeted (tr)
Young Conservatives ^

Posted on 08/04/2017 7:57:35 AM PDT by TigerClaws

The situation with Debbie Wasserman Schultz and her IT guy would be the biggest news story of the year if Republicans were involved.

But, it’s the Democrats dropping the ball again so the media has chosen to completely ignore it.

People who think that government officials should be held accountable to the taxpayers have been following along though and the story is clearly going to be a long term problem for Debbie.

Today, Wasserman Schultz opened up about the situation and it was a dumpster fire from start to finish. Trump Announces New Telehealth Program To Help Veterans Get More Responsive Care Trump Announces New Telehealth Program To Help Veterans Get More Responsive Care

From Washington Examiner:

Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz says she “did the right thing” by not immediately dismissing an IT staffer after he was banned from the House computer network and fired by other members of Congress.

“I believe that I did the right thing, and I would do it again,” Wasserman Schultz, D-Fla., said Thursday in an interview with the Sun Sentinel. “There are times when you can’t be afraid to stand alone and you have to stand up for what’s right. It would have been easier for me to just fire him.”

Stand up for what’s right? What are you talking about? She actually thinks she’s the victim?

It got worse. Guess what she blamed the controversy on? Ads by Revcontent

She suggested Awan was being targeted because he is Muslim.

“I had grave concerns about his due process rights being violated,” Wasserman Schultz said. “When their investigation was reviewed with me, I was presented with no evidence of anything that they were being investigated for. And so that in me gave me great concern that his due process rights were being violated. That there were racial and ethnic profiling concerns that I had.”

Democrats simply can’t help themselves when it comes to identity politics. It’s the only argument they have.

It’s not going to work this time.

The investigation is heating up and you have to imagine she will be put under oath at some point.

Any bets on when DWS resigns? Will she go early or wait for indictment?

All the comments so far in the Sun-Sentinel DWS interview are against Wasserman Schultz and the gullible journalists who wrote the cover-up story. It skims over most of the crime and violent behavior of Awan, just barely mentioning $283,000 wired to Pakistan.

Debbie Wasserman Schultz hilariously postulates that there's "there are plenty of technological issues that an IT person can assist with" without access to the network. Right, well we all know liars never change and Awan no doubt just used other people's or fake logons.

In a sane world, the AG and DOJ would be all over this, instead of chasing all things Russia! Russia! Russia!

The President should shitcan all of these clowns, and replace them with people who are NOT politicians. All of the top brass at DOJ and FBI need to be purged. And stop this mueller political USSR style witch hunt BS once and for all. Let the socialist-democrats whine and cry all they want. Who cares what they think or want. They’re not in charge anymore.

And now that we have seen who the RINO’s are, time to set sights on them to be purged in 2018.

And I could care less about what the Communist News Network and the other MSM socialist-democrat propaganda channels say. Their credibility is below whale shit at this point.

An unrepentant accomplice to espionage.

It will be taken into account at her sentencing.

Sombody very high up in a previous admin wants the Pakis to disappear.......they know plenty.

The Pakistan govt apparently considers Imran very important b/c of his braggadocio----representations about his political power in the US, saying he's "from the Congress." The grateful Paki govt even provides Imran with a VIP police escort.

=====================================================

This is very easy to unravel. Pres Trump, AG Sessions, and SOS Rex Tillerson call in the Pakistani Ambassador for a "little chat." The Pakistani Ambassador surely knows plenty---like (a) what important issues Imran is "advising" Cong Debbie about, (b) the whereabout of Imran's wife, and, (c) the rest of the Paki IT gang.

Call President Trump: Comments: 202-456-1111 Switchboard: 202-456-1414

========================================

FACTS ON FILE

<><> About half of House Republicans have signed a letter urging we cut off all aid to Pakistan. They consider it a terrorist-sponsoring nation.

<><> T-Rex calls in the Paki Ambassador, and speaking privately, gives him one week to show up with (a) evidence on Wasserman-Schultz, and, (B) Imran's wife and the rest of the IT gang.

<><> Either that or the State Dept will weigh in----and support adding Pak to terrorist list......cutting off all foreign aid.

<><> When the Pakis cough up the evidence, and the IT gang, (as they surely would), T-Rex turns it over to Pres Trump and to the DOJ (not the FBI).

<><> The DOJ then oversees the case; the FBI is given a time-certain to provide corroborating evidence (so they can't Mafia it out).

=======================================

“Typhoid Debbie" was a pox on the DNC so they dumped her for fixing the primary for Hillary....electronically rerouting Bernie’s donations to Hillary. Now she’s in deep-doo in the Awan IT espionage case. Taxpayers aren’t exactly thrilled Schultz used mega-tax dollars to subsidize Paki treason.

Yep, and the shallow corrupt PC cowboys in our 'intelligence services' back Debbie up...

Why?

Because our 'intelligence services' sold out years ago - they're OWNED BY LIBERAL ELITES. Totally bind to any 'liberal' crimes... If Al Capone was alive today AND a liberal - the FBI would be paying to keep his rum running trucks operational and 'leaking' about anyone standing up to Capone.

Hopefully he’s being targeted for a death penalty possible espionage trial.

You can bet “Typhoid Debbie” focus-grouped that asinine statement of hers...and numerous variations....to the nth degree.

Plus the DEMENTO high command all looked it over to make sure Debbie did no harm to the other stupid DEMEntos that employed the Paki/spies.

DEMento Debbie suggested Awan was being targeted because he is Muslim. “I had grave concerns about his due process rights being violated,” Wasserman Schultz said. “When their investigation was reviewed with me, I was presented with no evidence of anything that they were being investigated for. And so that gave me great concern that Imran's due process rights were being violated. That there were racial and ethnic profiling concerns that I had.”

ROTFLOL......watta load of claptrap.

Debbie's dutiful worship of Islam has "Obama-made-me-do-it" written all over it.

Whenever a Demento is in trouble, they invariably cite "violation of civil rights."

They can't help it. It's a Demo's knee jerk reaction.
