House Democrats Compromise American INtelligence Sevrets - AGAIN:
Investigative reporter Luke Rosiak, writing for our friends at the Daily Caller recently broke the story that three Muslim brothers who managed office information technology for members of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence and other lawmakers were abruptly relieved of their duties on suspicion that they accessed congressional computer networks without permission.
Brothers Abid, Imran, and Jamal Awan were barred from computer networks at the House of Representatives Thursday, The Daily Caller News Foundation Investigative Group reported on Tuesday, February 7, 2016.
The brothers, and a fourth
person, Hina R. Alvi (Imran Awan’s wife) are suspected of serious
violations, including accessing members’ computer networks without their
knowledge and stealing equipment from Congress reported Rosiak. Alvi is
a female House IT employee who works for many of the same members as
the three brothers, as well as the House Democratic Caucus.
Abid, Imran and Jamal Awan have all shared a house in Lorton, Virginia, that is in Hina R. Alvi’s name.
PJ Media's Debra Heine says Imran Awan, is a longtime House staffer who worked for more than two dozen Democrats since 2004.
The four Muslim employees worked for at
least three members of the House Permanent Select Committee on
Intelligence and five members of the House Committee on Foreign Affairs
were among the dozens of members who employed the suspects on a shared
basis. The two committees deal with many of the nation’s most sensitive
issues, information and documents, including those related to the war
with radical Islamic terrorism.
Jamal Awan handled IT for Rep. Joaquin Castro, a Texas Democrat who serves on both the intelligence and foreign affairs panels.
Imran Awan handled IT for Rep. Gregory
Meeks, a senior member of the House Foreign Affairs Committee where he
is the Ranking Member on the Subcommittee on Europe, Eurasia, and
Emerging Threats.
Imran Awan also worked for Rep. Andre
Carson, an Indiana Democrat and one of two Muslims in the House of
Representatives, and Rep. Jackie Speier, a California Democrat. Both are
members of the intelligence committee.
Also among those whose computer systems
may have been compromised is Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, the Florida
Democrat who was previously the target of a disastrous email hack when
she served as chairman of the Democratic National Committee during the
2016 campaign.
Security-sensitive jobs typically
require background checks for credit and legal problems that can create
pressures to cash in on access to secret information and
documents. However, signs of trouble have long been visible in public
records. The Congressional Credit Union repossessed Abid Awan’s car in
2009, and he declared bankruptcy in 2012, facing multiple lawsuits.
Luke Rosiak reports that despite the
generous salaries, the four were involved in multiple suspicious
mortgage transfers and a debt-evading bankruptcy. Abid Awan had more
than $1 million in debts following a failed business and court
documents filed claim that Abid had stolen money and vehicles
from associates in those business.
Abid Awan’s record includes numerous
driving- and alcohol-related legal problems, including driving with a
suspended or revoked license, court records show. He was found guilty of
drunk driving a month before he started at the House, and was arrested
for public intoxication a month after his first day.
Imran Awan has also been convicted of
driving offenses serious enough to rise to the level of criminal
misdemeanors, as well as using an illegal radar detector and driving an
unregistered vehicle reported Rosiak.
Chiefs of staff for dozens of
Democratic lawmakers who employed the four were informed that a criminal
probe was underway into their use of congressional information
technology systems, including the existence of an external server to
which House data was being funneled, and into the theft of and
overbilling for computer equipment.
According to Politico, Rep. Debbie
Wasserman Schultz and Rep. Gregory Meeks are two Democratic lawmakers
who have still not cut ties with the four. “At this time we are
continuing to gather information from House officials and will determine
the best approach to move forward once we have reviewed that
information,” David Damron, communications director for Wasserman
Schultz, said in an email when asked by POLITICO if Imran Awan was still
working for the Florida Democrat.
Jack Langer, spokesman for the
intelligence committee, said the committee office has its own IT staff
and security measures and classified information from the panel is not
allowed to be sent to members’ personal offices.
That policy was also in place for State
Department computer networks, yet classified material still found its
way onto Hillary Clinton’s private email server and Huma Abedin’s
personal laptop.
All of this puts us in mind of something that was revealed after the October 25, 1983 invasion of Grenada.
What the Marines found in Grenada was astonishing as David Horowitz put it in his book The Great Betrayal.
The intelligence trove discovered after
the invasion of Grenada revealed that Democrats were not just in
communication with the communist government there, but that Democratic
Rep. Ron Dellums and his staff were actively colluding with it.
Documents seized showed
that Dellums had coordinated his domestic opposition to Reagan’s Grenada
policy with the communist junta in Grenada, going so far as to provide
draft reports for the regime to edit before being published by the House
of Representatives.
Horowitz describes the materials found
on Grenada by the Marines, including a letter from Dellums’ chief of
staff Carlottia Scott. The letter to the communist dictator
said Dellums was “really hooked on you and Grenada and doesn’t want
anything to happen to building the Revolution and making it strong. . .
. The only other person that I know of that he expresses such
admiration for is Fidel.”
The emissary for these pro-communist efforts to undermine America?
Current Congresswoman Barbara Lee
(CA-13). “Another document liberated by the Marines contained the
minutes of a [Grenadian] Politburo meeting attended by the Communist
dictator and his military command. ‘Barbara Lee is here presently and
has brought with her a report on the international airport that was done
by Ron Dellums. They have requested that we look at the document and
suggest any changes we deem necessary. They will be willing to make the
changes,’” Horowitz documented in The Great Betrayal.
Rep. Dellums went on to serve as
Chairman of the House Armed Services Committee, complete with the
requisite security clearances.
And Barbara Lee?
She succeeded Dellums as Representative
for California’s 13th Congressional District and now sits on the State
and Foreign Operations and Military Construction and Veterans Affairs
subcommittees of the Appropriations Committee and employed Awan Abid as an IT professional.
