Debbie Wasserman Schultz is at the center of a scandal in Washington this week after it was discovered her IT aide was stealing equipment. Imran Awan was accused of serious, potentially illegal, violations on the House IT network. For instance, he reportedly charged the House double the amount required for IT equipment and may have exposed House information online.
Awan was also charged with multiple counts of bank fraud after allegedly engaging in "a scheme to defraud a Congressional Federal Credit Union," according to Fox News.
He was caught at Virginia's Dulles International Airport trying to flee the country to Pakistan Monday night.
Awans crimes were discovered back in February and he had been banned from using the House computer network. Every congressional Democrat whom he worked for fired him after learning of the report. Everyone that is, except Wasserman Schultz, who did not let him go until this week. It was unclear which tasks he was still trusted with.
The Weston Democrat has not explained in detail why she continued to employ Awan until Tuesday when she fired him after he was arrested on bank-fraud charges at Dulles International Airport in Virginia attempting to board a flight to Pakistan. And she has not elaborated on what work Awan did for her after he lost access to the House computer network.
In a statement, Wasserman Schultz spokesman David Damron defensively said that her team had been given no evidence to suggest Awan had broken a law. As such, she was under the impression he had been the victim of religious profiling. "Upon learning of his arrest," however, Awan was promptly terminated.
"After details of the investigation were reviewed with us, my office was provided no evidence to indicate that laws had been broken, which over time, raised troubling concerns about due process, fair treatment, and potential ethical and religious profiling. Upon learning of his arrest, he was terminated."
This is all very dramatic news. Of course, you didnt hear about it in the mainstream media. Unless you happened to be watching the 37 seconds of coverage CBS dedicated to it.
Awan pleaded not guilty to bank fraud charges. He has been released under a high-intensity supervision program.
David Damron’s statement sucks rocks. Why would his office be provided with evidence in an ongoing investigation ?. Who does he think he is , Hillary ?
Awan was fired and DWS rehired him as a consultant. End of discussion.
You mean like 2000 guns walked away from “Fast and Furious”??
(And your right about him disappearing...He's worth WAY MORE more dead then alive!....He'll either escape....die in a tragic accident or commit suicide....*Mark my words*)
Maybe Awan didn’t get fired by DWS because he was doing what she wanted him to do.

Democrats are scrambling over the recent activity surrounding the Muslim Band of Brothers who worked for the DNC over the past few years as IT Specialists. This story must be really big due to the fact that the liberal mainstream media has not reported on it.
A search of guests at the White House show that Imrans younger brother Abid was a guest at the White House on Thursday, November 21, 2013. He arrived at 5pm and didnt depart for 7 hours. He attended with another 17 individuals.
What was the IT Specialist doing at the White House for 7 hours after 5pm in 2013, why was he there, who was with him and where was Obama?
Why did Obamas staff hold a 7 hr. meeting at the White House with #ImranAwans brother Abid Awan? Who are the 17 people? For what purpose? pic.twitter.com/uG0wOU5I2N
Dementocrat Debbie does not fire Imran when everyone found out he falsified official documents and was billing salaries for people who did not work there.
She does not fire him after his criminal record became public.
Dementocrat Debbie does not fire him after security data breaches.
She does not fire him after he stole, illegally stored, and illegally destroyed US govt property, in violation of data and equipment laws.
She fires him AFTER he is pubicly arrested trying to flee the country having fleeced the Congressional Credit Union of thousands of tax dollars.
==============================================
FYI-Official documents, court records and multiple interviews suggest the Awan crew may have engaged in government fraud, tax evasion, bank fraud, extortion, bankruptcy fraud and insurance fraud. More alarmingly, money (our tax dollars?) could have been funneled overseas. Abid Awan has hired high-profile attorney James Bacon who specializes in anti-money laundering litigation.
L/E is looking into how Imran Awan may have illegally double-billed the US govt for tech equipment for his House of Representatives employers: tech equipment like computers, iPads, monitors, keyboards and routers.
Imran falsified government vouchers and billed the US govt for these bogus purchases, then criminally pocketed stolen tax dollars.
Several Awan relatives and co-conspirators, fired months ago, worked for House Democrats on key intel committees. Awan, however, was kept on-staff by Cong Debbie Wasserman Schultz, D-Fla, billed as her “advisor” even though he was no longer allowed access to the House server network.

I think the stealing equipment line is fake news cover story intended to make the democrats look better.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Desperate attempts to minimize and misdirect the narrative away from the gaping abyss of a scandal that is truly unfolding.
Abid Awan has hired high-profile attorney James Bacon who specializes in anti-money laundering litigation.
Official documents, court records and multiple interviews suggest the Awan crew may have engaged in government fraud, tax evasion, bank fraud, extortion, bankruptcy fraud and insurance fraud.
More alarmingly, money (our tax dollars?) could have been funneled overseas.
If he does get away, and he prolly will, dollars to doughnuts he had help in the getaway from the RATS. There's a lot being covered up here.
Mr. Sessons, GET TO WORK!
More alarmingly, money (our tax dollars?) could have been funneled overseas.
Even more alarming is about 12 years worth of documents sucked out of DIM committee members files and e-mails and sent to the islamics.
I've been following this story for months, furious that it was being covered almost nowhere. I bet my buddy that as soon as the story broke some democrat would start screeching about islamophobia. This statement counts AFAIC.
I believe what u mentioned is just scratching the surface.
The crimes u mentioned still does not explain why DWS was protecting
and still paying him.
Something else is rotting below the surface and we need to find out what.
Maybe this spy knows that there was no Russian hacking, but internal
hacking by someone like Seth Rich.
Something else is rotten too.
(waiting for hysterical laughter to die down)
I guess mayo-head Debbie was waiting for lightning to strike her.
These deluded Dementocrats actually think we are supposed to believe this claptrap.
Brain-dead Debbie, the deluded Dementocrat, keeps on proving her utter unsuitability for public office.
Like spending the last five months cleaning up the traces of everything done before on those networks he was banned from accessing? Remember, he had DWS's access codes and passwords to those networks.
Cong Schultz knowingly helped endanger Americans then brazenly
slashes and burns the Trump admin to enhance her political ambitions.
While James Bacon may be representing Abid Awan, Clintonista heavyweight lawyer Chris Gowan is representing Imran Awan

TALKING POINTS---At once, determine if Imran Awan is paying Gowen Rhodes Winograd and Silva PPLC with stolen tax dollars. Imran Awan declared bankruptcy months ago.....it seems unlikely he has the wherewithal to pay what these attorneys might require for representation in this high level case of bank fraud, electronic fraud, theft, obstruction of justice, falsifying US govt documents, possibly blackmail and espionage.
Taxpayers demand Congress mobilize the full panoply of government to defend Americans against this unprecedented attack on them by Imran Awan's counsel.
There is no question, the safety and security of innocent Americans was endangered by the actions of Imran Awan and his co-conspirators. For Imran's counsel to defame and belittle Americans is unconscionable.

1 and 2 - no doubt about it. So now they go into diversion mode with the Islamophobia angle to try short-circuit full prosecution under which the truth about DWS's unethical and probably criminal actions would come out.
Awww c'mon now, Liz. Anyone can see that a fine, upstanding firm like GRW&S PPLC is prolly just working pro bono to assist the destitute, profiled and downtrodden victim of "ultra-right-wing" slander.
