Why is the Democrats' bizarre IT scandal being ignored?

While the focus in Washington, D.C. remains centered on the Mueller Russia probe, we cannot lose sight of another ongoing investigation on Capitol Hill. At the center of this developing scandal are the nefarious actions of a former Democratic congressional IT aide indicted last year on bank fraud charges, who at the time was being paid by a high-profile member of Congress although he was barred from the House computer systems.

While the case has not received a lot of mainstream media attention, the details are sordid. Not only does the case raise serious national security and obstruction of justice concerns, it also suggests a blatant cover-up on the part of the lawmakers involved.

Our story begins in the early 2000s when an IT contractor named Imran Awan began doing work for a number of House Members. He was later joined in this work by seven other family members who had almost little or no computer technology expertise, including his wife and two brothers. One of Awan’s brothers at 20 years old was earning the same amount as a member of Congress. After being fired from one office for “incompetence” the other congressional offices continued to pay him.

In February of 2016 the House Office of Inspector General revealed that $120,000 in office equipment belonging to the office of Congresswoman Yvette Clarke, D-N.Y., went missing. At the time, Imran’s brother Abid Awan worked for Representative Clarke in an IT capacity and was believed to be involved in the equipment’s disappearance.

I venture the guess that it has something to do with $$ and a desire not to mysteriously die before one's time is due.

They need us to focus on the "caged child immigrants" NOTHINGBURGER so we ignore the obvious guilt of Hildebeast.

It's not working.

Seth Rich, DNC computer analyst Murdered in Georgetown, shot in the back during “a robbery”. His wallet and possessions intact.
Kurt Smolek, State Dept. information Security officer during Hillary Clinton’s time as Secretary of State, face down dead in the Potomac.
Wow, am I just a conspiracy theorist or is there a blatantly obvious need to investigate these murders in connection with the Democrat National Commitee leaks, foreign involvement and the Clinton campaign/Foundation?
Please hide my web address so the Clintons don’t have me commit suicide.

The media works with dems to hide the obvious corruption that would end the careers of many politicians.
