Congressional IT staffers who are the subject of a criminal investigation into misusing their positions had full access to members’ “correspondence, emails, confidential files,” and there was almost no tracking of what they did, a former House technology worker said.
Imran Awan bullied central IT to bend the rules for him so there wouldn’t be a paper trail about the unusually high permissions he was requesting. And their actions were not logged, so members have no way of knowing what information they may have taken, the central IT employee said.

“They had access to EVERYTHING. Correspondence, emails, confidential files – if it was stored on the Member system, they had access to it,” the former House Information Resources (HIR) technology worker with first-hand knowledge of Imran’s privileges told Daily Caller.

“There were some things – like access to the House email system that were totally controlled by the technicians at HIR. In order for certain permissions to be granted, a form was required to ensure that there was a paper trail for the requested changes. Imran was constantly complaining that he had to go through this process and trying to get people to process his access requests without the proper forms. Some of the permissions he wanted would give him total access to the Members’ stuff.”
“IT staff at HIR can be tracked for every keystroke they make,” the worker said. But by comparison, “when these guys were granted access to the Member’s computer systems there is no oversight or tracking of what they may be doing on the Member’s system. For example they could make a copy of anything on the Member’s computer system to a thumb drive or have it sent to a private server they had set up and no one would know.”

Didnt Obama claim to find Bin Laden in Pakistan?
Pakistan’s OTHER Bin Laden was in our White House.
So, this is the House...what does the Speaker of the House have to say?
maybe we should send the links of the George Webb videos to the tip line of the FBI? /s
Maybe not so much sarcasm there... they know that WE know but They’re not doin’ nuttin..
Email is not a secure protocol, and anybody who assumes that it is deserves way he gets.
Seriously what would it take for the FBI to take over the investigation? What are the rules/laws regarding a case like this?
These democrats are traitors and should be treated as such.
This is laughable. None of the IT Central geniuses put 2 and 2 together to figure this out: a foreign national w/ ties to a terrorist country, was accessing US security intel.....and bullying personnel...was trying to avoid a paper trail.
Watta frickin' joke.
===========================================
IMHO, the best way to nab this Capitol Hill gang is not the appalling things they did....but what they didn't do.
REALITY CHECK: Just the preliminary crimes: US govt property went missing and Taxpayers were overbilled.
If Dummie wasserman Sch**tz and the rest of the Dumbocrts apparently DID NOT FILE police reports for missing US govt property, means they are all complicit in the crime.
US govt documents were apparently falsified by the Aans for the express purpose of stealing money from taxpayers.

Did you ever see photos of Bin Laden's dead body?
WAITING...
Exactly!! Bin Laden died in Tora Bora.
An illustration of how social justice trumps national security.
Given their backgrounds, I wouldn’t hire them to clean my house.
The rats are going to get us all killed.
