Awan Lawyer Demanded Witness Reveal What She Told FBI, Probed About ‘Radical Islamic Activities’
dailycaller.com ^ | 5/16/17 | Luke Rosiak

A lawyer for Abid Awan — one of the three brothers who the House Inspector General found made “unauthorized access” to congressional servers before the election — used a deposition in an unrelated civil case to ask a witness to reveal what she told FBI agents, to ascertain if they asked about “radical Islamic activities,” and inquire about a grand jury.

Attorney Jim Bacon also asked the witness to try to find out details of the investigation from officials and asked whether they had offered to put her into a witness protection program. The deposition was given as part of a lawsuit regarding the Awans’ deceased father’s $50,000 life insurance policy.

Bacon asked the witness — the Awans’ stepmother, Samina Gilani — who from Capitol Hill was gathering information about the alleged hack on Congress, according to a transcript of the deposition, which was conducted in Bacon’s office.

“Come clean. That’s the best,” Bacon told her, calling it “important.”

Gilani testified that the oldest Awan brother, Imran, was wiretapping her.

“He has connected my phone, my house phone, with his own phone,” she said. “Whenever I talked to someone in Pakistan, he told me later on that you told this, you said this.”

But because it involves Democrats and the religion of piece nary a word is heard.

Jackson would have stopped pistol whipping by now and started shooting.

Pretty sure we'll have at least of handful of Obama/HRC/DNC-related scandals that will be vying for this title.

Beat me to it. Headlines in the days to come: “Muslims count on Bacon”, “Bacon during Ramadan”, “Muslims go all in with Bacon”...

It is.

But this piece is really poorly written.

You know it, and I know it, but the mainstream media won't cover it. So, did it really happen?

The "mainstream" media? You mean the America-hating jacka$$es I (and a lot of other people) no longer pay attention to?

Broward, Florida resident, Cong /Debbie Wassermann Schultz is relying on the tired excuse "Religious profiling,
and Islamaphobia" -----to bail herself out of the monstrous mess she created for herself mentoring the Awan clan.

Can Debbie Wassermann Schultz produce a documented paper trail of religious profiling complaints against the Awan clan?

<><> Does D/W/S have reports filed under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act that prohibits workplace segregation based on religion?

<><> Does she have complaints filed w/ the EEOC, an agency that monitors religious discrimination?

<><> Does she have reports filed w/ the Congressional Islamic Staff Association?

<><> Does she have letters from constituents complaining about her Muslim hires?

<><> Does she have reports filed w/ the Civil Rights Commission?

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

I didn't think so.

You are the winner. Awesome pickup. That is the only thing interesting in the article. Awans have been given a complete pass for well over a year. Now there is new information??? IG Report Delayed due to new info??? Nothing ever going to happen to these Paki Scum. The only charge is an unrelated bank fraud which involves a false document.
