Capitol Police on October 3 arrested 27-year old congressional staffer Jackson Cosko for posting on Wikipedia the private addresses of three members of the Senate Judiciary Committee—what’s known as “doxxing” (a word derived from the shorthand for “document”). Cosko is facing serious charges that include illegally posting private information of public figures, witness tampering, threats, identity theft, and unlawful entry.
In the mainstream media, Cosko is being portrayed as a hapless overzealous intern who didn’t even have the smarts to cover up his criminal act. His former boss— Rep. Sheila Jackson-Lee (D-Texas) has denied she knew anything about Cosko’s activities. In a press conference held this week, Jackson-Lee explained that she fired Cosko and is cooperating with officials investigating the crimes. (Interestingly, cameras recorded Jackson-Lee passing an envelope to Christine Blasey Ford’s lawyer just before her testimony got underway.)
Many Questions, Few Answers So Far
Yet, Jackson-Lee still has some explaining to do. While she claims Cosko was an “unpaid intern” in her office, the Washington Post reports that Cosko was actually a “fellow.” This was confirmed by Cosko’s lawyer, who said his client was a “fellow” in Jackson-Lee’s office and that he was being paid by an “outside institution.”
What “outside institution” paid for Cosko’s fellowship? Did that entity know about his illegal activities? What other fellowships does this “outside organization” pay for? What other House or Senate offices are hosting fellows paid by this organization?

Grab Soros and turn him over to PM Orban if Hungary. He wants Soros too. Be more fun to watch than here
If we only had an AG.
We do have an AG. He’s currently very busy chasing pot smokers
This deserves jail time.
Isn’t Soros on Putin’s list as well and never allowed back into Russia?
All the charges against add up to a maximum of almost 50 years. He won't get that but he will get some kind of prison sentence for sure.
A lot of Freepers disagree with this though.
Somehow, I don’t believe Sheila Jackson Lee when she says she did not know.
Something tells me that won't be a problem for him.
Thailand would like to have him as a guest...

Good find! This doxxer guy, Coscko, is not some “intern.” A paid expert on loan from somewhere.
Who was paying him? Who’s paying his lawyer? Guy’s looking at 50 years, I’ve read. We’ll know it’s a coverup if he gets to plead out, with little to no time.
Keep an eye on this guy...
He should, at a minimum, be punched in the nose for that insufferable smirk.

I think you’re right, matter of fact I know you’re right. Hey Sheila, what was in the envelope????
