    While they have been claiming the Russians did this and the Russian did that, the DNC and the Democrats had a Pakistani Crime Family with what appear to be connections to Pakistani Intelligence with full run of their emails and servers, illegally accessing them at will, even after they had been fired for attempting to engage in blackmail, and Debbie Blabbermouth Shultz kept them on payroll until they were arrested fleeing the country with cash they had swindled from the House Bank. And did the FBI ever examine these servers that the Pakistani Crime Family had access to, which they claim the Russians hacked? That would be NO! And the servers have 'mysteriously' disappeared!

    In July, 2017, Awan was arrested attempting to board a flight to Pakistan with a wiped cell phone, a resume that listed his address as Queens, New York, and after initiating a wire transfer of $238,000 from the Congressional Federal Credit Union to the Pakistan. His wife had already left the country with $12,000 in cash hidden in her suitcase.

    A month later, the Awans were indicted on bank fraud charges. Remarkably, neither Awan, his wife, nor any of his family members have been charged for their repeated unauthorized access to congressional networks.

    The obvious question is why. After documentation of thousands of unauthorized breaches, a missing server whose contents are now unaccounted for, and thousands of dollars in missing equipment, it beggars belief that anyone could still be incredulous about whether or not a crime was committed.

    And yet, certain House Democrats remain that way. Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-Fl.), in particular, refused to fire Awan, keeping him on her payroll for six months after he was banned from accessing the House network. According to Capitol Hill officials involved in the case, the Democrats who employed Awan are refusing to press charges. No significant public oversight has been given to the matter, beyond an unofficial hearing held by the House Freedom Caucus in October, 2017. In a hearing held by the House Administration Committee on April 12, 2018, the House Chief Administrative Officer Phil Kiko identifiedtwo dozen problems with how the House manages cybersecurity, and recommended eliminating the concept of “shared employees,” which allowed the Awans access to data in multiple offices. Thus far, the proposed reforms have been blocked.

    Can we pause for a moment and appreciate how terribly ironic this is? Many of these same Democrats who are demanding the president’s impeachment for unproven collusion allegations have their own cybersecurity scandal —one they refuse to address or even acknowledge.

    Leftists are very easily distracted to whatever issue the Democratic Party dangles in front of them, particularly if it involves sex or his tax returns. It makes hiding the serious stuff outlined here, and corruption in the FBI and DOJ, easy to conceal.

    You apparently care about the economy, Trump is in the positive numbers in polling on the economy. That means more seats for Republicans in November. People care about their wallets FIRST.

    My understanding when it all went down was that Debbie Wasserman Schultz was working closely with Hillary Clinton and officials that Hillary hadn't bought off or controlled in some way, believed there to be info about those Pakistanis on that laptop that Schultz was trying desperately to get back from the Police Chief. But maybe the cops found something else which is entirely possible since they're all dirty as hell hence the reason Hillary had all her tech bludgeoned and acid washed.

    Have to laugh. BleachBit, what was claimed to be used on the Hillarys hard drives has this picture on their website.

    Voting based upon the economy will only act as a positive driver for Republicans. It won't have any impact on Dems. Dems are motivated by the negative drivers of your BLOTUS and the GOP and what they are doing/not doing. Negative drivers are stronger always motivations to get out and vote. In 2010 when the economy was a negative driver it drove up turnout to punish the incumbent party. In 2018 the major negative driver that will punish the incumbent party are the actions of the GOP and your BLOTUS.

    And there's that connection to the Middle East again with the left just like with Obama who seemed to be up to his neck in that region. Also the connection to Hezzbolah, Al-Qaeda, and Iran as well. Makes one wonder if they threw Osama Bin Laden under the bus after he'd become kind of worthless having to hide out so much? Was this to gain confidence for Obama by the American people to get him reelected? Certainly wouldn't hurt for sure since he'd got nothing else of consequence accomplished. Love mysteries and this is definitely one that's starting to add up. The dots are really starting to connect for sure. Would certainly make more sense why Obama made a deal with Iran trading 5 TALIBAN commanders held in Guantanamo bay {the GOP wouldn't let him release} and sent billions in cash for absolutely nothing in return unless one thinks a traitor who deserted his post to seek out the Taliban was worth that. If so, was said traitor Bowe Bergdahl, Obama's secret messenger to the Taliban? I mean what if?

    Or, they know full well that they are crooks who easily evade the law while illegally entangling their opponents in it. The Deep Corruption on the Left: Dirty politicians, Dirty FBI and DOJ, Dirty Prosecutors and Dirty Judges, but this Pakistani IT Crime Family Scandal takes the cake. Some of these democrats sat on our most important Committees in terms of international relations and national security.

    This is astonishing not only for its rank hypocrisy, but also given the 2016 hack of the server at the Democratic National Campaign committee, which resulted in DNC emails being published on Wikileaks. Many Democrats lament the role those leaked emails played in tarnishing the candidacy of Hillary Clinton prior to Election Day. And yet, these Democrats refuse to take the breaches seriously, or even to implement recommended reforms.

    The security of the House has been compromised, and the investigation into how and why is being stymied by Democratic lawmakers who conveniently claim to care about electoral integrity—until it may impact them.

    Secure files have been breached without authorization, a server and its data are missing, and hundreds of thousands of dollars have been transferred to Pakistan. Yet if you ask any House Democrat involved in this, they’ll tell you nothing is amiss.

    As the palace guard succinctly put it in Shakespeare’s Hamlet, something is rotten in the state of Denmark—in this case, in the People’s House.

    Democrats must address this scandal, or the House leadership should take the matter into their own hands. Politics aside, no breach of this magnitude should be left unaddressed, particularly when it comes to the scope of the information that may be at stake.

    It's not a crime because it's against the law,
    it's against the law because it's a crime!

    Republican Democracy is a system of government for a virtuous People.

    Well I know it will be difficult to understand but when running for office one shouldn't just lick their finger and stick it up to the wind to see which way it's blowing. They're supposed to run with the party where their values will be represented best so they can hope to make meaningful change. So those running on the opposite side is usually for three reasons.

    1. They want to vote with the other party which is where their alliance secretively is on issues so even if the house has the majority and able to vote and win 51% on certain issues, as in the case with John McCain who almost always votes with the democrats he alone is able to kill bills the GOP is trying to pass and has done so many times.

    2. Kind of like a spy one might say is the second reason so they can keep the other side of the aisle abreast of what's going on.

    3. They run on the opposite side of their beliefs if they feel area voters tend to lean to that side and therefore it would give them a better chance of winning as in the case of Evan Jenkins running for West Virginia who has flip flopped back and forth so many times between the democratic and republican party, he probably doesn't even know himself which side he's on. He will be a RINO (republican in name only) for sure.

    And what that judge said is a clear and honest judgement for anyone following this case. This vicious and out-of-control Star Chamber is ruining the lives of innocent people while costing the tax payers millions. If they were paying this money out of their own pocket, as those who defend themselves must do, this Witch Hunt would have ended long ago. Have they no decency?

    I once read something along those lines which went something like this, 'The government charging innocent people with crimes is not wrong because it is illegal; tt is illegal because it is wrong'. There are unwritten laws we impose on ourselves because we innately understand some behavior is just wrong, and to not obey these laws signals a collapse in our social structure and a degrading of our culture.

    While Mueller and his fellow lawyers may have the law on their side, for now, what they are doing to otherwise innocent people is just morally wrong, and otherwise decent people should begin to recognize that.

    It's also lawless. Do you think Mueller is going to produce the unredacted authorization demanded by the Court?

    And what do you make of Mueller obtaining a sixty day extension on proving to the Court that ALL exculpatory evidence was presented to Flynn before taking his plea?

    As you have been INFORMED on multiple prior occasions with CREDIBLE SOURCES this is being INVESTIGATED as a criminal matter by the Capitol Police.

    Voting for what is in the BEST INTERESTS of We the People over and above PARTISAN issues used to be a noble thing that genuine conservatives and liberals did on a regular basis without being called names.

    Then again that was before the GOP set out down the path of the politics of personal destruction that they are now using against their own party members as a means of punishing them for their failure to harm We the People for purely partisan reasons.

    Like AP (Associated Press) and Rueters, UPI is a press agency that writes and sells news stories to other media.

    Ha! Knew you'd like that link. DWS and Clarke continued to lie, and conceal the thefts until the OIG began investigating. The STOLEN servers, and ther smashed HDD's were turned over to authorities by a US Marine. Semper Fi !!! http://dailycaller.com/2017/07/23/e...-drives-from-wasserman-schultz-it-aides-home/

    No, I don't think he will. Mueller would drop that area of investigation before letting anyone outside his circle know what is going on.. And the judge, though seeming to have a sterling reputation, has not made his decision yet. What say you?

    Mueller probably negotiated 60 days though it could certainly be done in less than a week. But, as you mentioned, the idea is to stall until the mid terms and Democrats perhaps gain some power, which is their only hope of having this go away.
