It’s time to play connect the dots with the real collusion
story the Leftist Mainstream Media (MSM) will not do for you. The fear I have
is that the GOP elitists are so into maintaining a swamp status quo, that they
will not follow through in decriminalizing the U.S. Federal Government. So
check out these dots and tell me where they lead.

Fmr. Clinton aide details how
Obama has set up secret ‘war room’ blocks from the White House to destroy Trump
July 31, 2017
A former adviser to President
Bill Clinton says there is a secret war room, run by the staff of former
President Obama, miles from the White House that is designed to bring down
President Donald Trump.
In a YouTube video shared on
Thursday, Dick Morris, who worked for former President Clinton, said, “there is
indication that Obama has set up a secret operation in a war room just about 2
miles from the White House.” The staff consists of former Barack and
Michelle Obama aides among others, and has two conference calls daily to create
talking points against the president, held at 8:30 am and 9:45 am, according to
Morris.

On the call are Andrew
Slavitt, who served as the head of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid
Services and former Kansas Gov. Kathleen Sebelius, who also headed Health and
Human Services, as saving Obamacare is of paramount concern.
“There operation is just a
few blocks from the Capitol and it’s in a war room run by Leslie Dash, one of
(former President) Obama’s top health care officials. Coordinating a nationwide
anti-repeal campaign by liberal think tanks, local resistance groups —
sympathetic governors, Medicaid insurance lobbyists, Democratic activists,
pollsters and academics. It was conceived in the hours after (President) Trump
was elected in November and the group called itself Protect Our Care,” Morris
said.
“The covert part of the
resistance in these moles who are buried in the Trump administration who are
leaking to sabotage (President) Trump,” he added.
In March it was reported that former
top aide to President Obama, Valerie Jarrett, was moving in with the Obama
family as part of an operation to resist President Trump.
According to the rumors,
Jarrett and Michelle Obama were creating a “nerve center” to figure out ways to
remove President Trump from office, either by forcing him to resign or having
him impeached.
Morris expounded on that idea
on Sunday when he appeared on New York AM 970’s “The Cats Roundtable,” with
host John Catsimatidis, a former candidate for mayor of New York City.
“The main thing that is going
on, though, in politics is really an attempt at a coup d’etat, which is
essentially what this whole Russian stuff is,” Morris told Catsimatidis. “In
fact, I call it the illusion of collusion. The whole Democratic party is so
taken up with the idea that Hillary [Clinton] lost the election because of
collusion between Trump and [Vladimir] Putin.”
“I think the whole thing has
been cooked up in an effort to topple Trump from power,” he said. “It amounts
really to a coup d’etat between the intelligence community on the one hand and
the media on the other.”

Wasserman Schultz
Seemingly Planned To Pay Suspect Even While He Lived In Pakistan
By Luke Rosiak - Investigative Reporter
07/29/2017 4:05 PM
Democratic Rep. Debbie
Wasserman Schultz seemingly planned to pay cyber-probe suspect and IT aide
Imran Awan even while he was living in Pakistan, if the FBI hadn’t stopped
him from leaving the U.S. Monday. Public statements and congressional payroll
records suggest she also appears to have known that his wife, a fellow IT
staffer, left the country for good months ago — while she was also a criminal
suspect.
In all, six months of
actions reveal a decision to continue paying a man who seemingly
could not have been providing services to her, and who a mountain of evidence
suggests was a liability. The man long had access to all of Wasserman
Schultz’s computer files, work emails and personal emails, and he was
recently accused by a relative in court documents of wiretapping
and extortion.
Records also raise questions
about whether the Florida Democrat permitted Awan to continue to access
computers after House-wide authorities banned him from the
network Feb. 2. Not only did she keep him on staff
after the ban, but she also did not have any other IT person to
perform necessary work that presumably would have arisen during a months-long
period, according to payroll records.
Wasserman Schultz employed
Pakistani-born Awan and his wife Hina Alvi, and refused to fire either of
them even after U.S. Capitol Police said in February 2017 that they were
targets of the criminal investigation. She said police wouldn’t show her
evidence against the couple and, without it, she assumed they might be victims
of anti-Muslim profiling.
Awan booked a round-trip
ticket to Pakistan in July and planned to depart Monday, July 24 with a return
ticket in six months. He was arrested at Dulles
Airport during his attempt to leave.
The Associated Press reported
that Awan’s lawyer, Chris Gowen, said Awan “had informed the House of
his plans to visit his family.”
Wasserman Schultz’s spokesman
cited Awan’s Monday arrest as the reason for ending his employment
on Tuesday: “Upon learning of his arrest, he was terminated.”
The office’s insistence
that his termination was prompted by the Monday arrest — and not the House
Sergeant at Arms banning him and his wife from touching congressional computers
or his six months in Pakistan — suggests that had he boarded the flight
without incident he would still be on payroll.
“Does that mean if he had
boarded the flight as planned the office would have been paying him for six
months while he was abroad?” The DCNF investigative group asked Wasserman
Schultz’s spokesman Thursday. “Why would it do that?” The spokesman did
not respond.
Awan’s wife, Hina, left the
country under similar circumstances March 5, after withdrawing the couple’s
three kids from school without telling Virginia education officials, packing up
all of her possessions, and hiding $12,000 in cash, according to an FBI affidavit.
She allegedly had hundreds of thousands of dollars waiting in Pakistan for
her — money the FBI says Awan had obtained partly through mortgage fraud
and had wired overseas using a false explanation.
Two days later, on March 7,
House records show Hina was cut from Wasserman Schultz’s payroll.
Though Hina bought a round
trip ticket with a return in six months, the FBI said it “does not believe that
Alvi has any intention to return to the United States.”
Wasserman Schultz spokesman
David Darmrom did not respond to a DCNF IG request to explain why Hina had
been terminated two days into a trip she claimed was temporary, while her
husband had not been terminated for a six-month move. Between the
part-time nature of her work and the ban, her absence was unlikely
to have been noticed in two days without someone telling the office her
plans.
Wasserman Schultz’s office
also didn’t answer if the office knew Hina’s “round trip” was a permanent
move.
Hina and Awan were both
IT aides whose jobs required access to the network, but the House
Sergeant-At-Arms banned them from accessing it beginning Feb. 2.
Awan and Hina were her only IT staffers, and payroll records through the latest available period,
March 31, indicate that no other IT staffer or vendor was added to the payroll
after their ban.
A House source said
Awan was seen in the House office building multiple times after the
network ban. “Imran Awan is working in an “advisory” role for Wasserman
Schultz, her spokesman said, “providing advice on technology issues.”
The spokesman wouldn’t say
who did the office’s computer work after the ban, if not Awan.
As IT administrators, the
suspects could read all emails sent and received by the lawmaker and see all
files on the staff members’ computers, numerous House IT aides said. WikiLeaks
shows that Awan also had the password to
Wasserman Schultz’s iPad.
In public court documents
filed in Fairfax, Va., Awan’s stepmother accused him of wiretapping and
extortion. “Imran Awan did admit to me that my phone is tapped
and there are devices installed in my house” and “Imran Awan threatened that he
is very powerful and if I ever call the police again, [he] will … kidnap my family members back in Pakistan,” his stepmother, Samina Gilani, claimed in the documents (p.
21) filed April 14.
Despite her
professed concern of stereotyping, all other colleagues who employed Awan,
Hina or their other relatives on House payrolls fired them, including Rep.
Andre Carson of Indiana, who is Muslim and has criticized Wasserman Schultz for
blocking police from examining a laptop tied to Imran.
That laptop was found in an
unused crevice of a House office building and seized as evidence by the Capitol
Police, but Wasserman Schultz appeared determined to not let police see its
contents, threatening “consequences”
for the police chief if he didn’t release it. The exchange was captured on
video.
Fox News reported that months
later, she had blocked them from looking at it but had become open to “negotiating” with
police, possibly turning over certain files, as Hillary Clinton was
permitted to do in deciding which emails were “personal.”
Observers have decried Wasserman
Schultz’s judgment and cybersecurity record, noting she was the chairwoman of
the Democratic National Committee when it was hacked. A group of Democratic
donors filed a lawsuit saying she and the DNC “breached the duties they
owed to… members of the DNC Donor Class by failing to exercise
reasonable care and
implement adequate [cyber]security protocols..”
+++
In Washington, it’s
never about what they tell you it’s about. So take this to the bank: The case
of Imran Awan, Debbie Wasserman Schultz’s mysterious Pakistani IT guy, is not
about bank fraud.
Yet bank fraud was the
stated charge on which Awan was arrested at Dulles Airport this week, just as
he was trying to flee the United States for Pakistan, via Qatar. That is the
same route taken by Awan’s wife, Hina Alvi, in March, when she suddenly fled
the country, with three young daughters she yanked out of school, mega-luggage,
and $12,400 in cash.
By then, the proceeds of the
fraudulent $165,000 loan they’d gotten from the Congressional Federal Credit
Union had been sent ahead. It was part of a $283,000 transfer that Awan managed
to wire from Capitol Hill. He pulled it off — hilariously, if infuriatingly —
by pretending to be his wife in a phone call with the credit union. Told that
his proffered reason for the transfer (“funeral arrangements”) wouldn’t fly, “Mrs.”
Awan promptly repurposed: Now “she” was “buying property.” Asking no more
questions, the credit union wired the money . . . to Pakistan.
As you let all that sink in,
consider this: Awan and his family cabal of fraudsters had access for years to
the e-mails and other electronic files of members of the House’s Intelligence
and Foreign Affairs Committees. It turns out they were accessing members’
computers without their knowledge, transferring files to remote servers,
and stealing computer equipment — including hard drives that Awan & Co.
smashed to bits of bytes before making tracks.
They were fired in February.
All except Awan, that is. He continued in the employ of Wasserman Schultz, the
Florida Democrat, former DNC chairwoman, and Clinton crony. She kept him in
place at the United States Congress right up until he was nabbed at the airport
on Monday.
This is not about bank fraud.
The Awan family swindles are plentiful, but they are just window-dressing. This
appears to be a real conspiracy, aimed at undermining American national
security.
At the time of his arrest,
the 37-year-old Imran Awan had been working for Democrats as an information
technologist for 13 years. He started out with Representative Gregory Meeks
(D., N.Y.) in 2004. The next year, he landed on the staff of Wasserman Schultz,
who had just been elected to the House.
Congressional-staff salaries
are modest, in the $40,000 range. For some reason, Awan was paid about four
times as much. He also managed to get his wife, Alvi, on the House
payroll . . . then his brother, Abid
Awan . . . then Abid’s wife, Natalia Sova. The youngest of
the clan, Awan’s brother Jamal, came on board in 2014 — the then-20-year-old
commanding an annual salary of $160,000.
A few of these arrangements
appear to have been sinecures: While some Awans were rarely seen around the
office, we now know they were engaged in extensive financial shenanigans away
from the Capitol. Nevertheless, the Daily Caller’s Luke Rosiak, who has
been all over this story, reports that, for their IT
“work,” the Pakistani family has reeled in $4 million from U.S. taxpayers since
2009.
That’s just the “legit”
dough. The family business evidently dabbles in procurement fraud, too. The
Capitol Police and FBI are exploring widespread double-billing for computers,
other communication devices, and related equipment.
Why were they paid so much
for doing so little? Intriguing as it is, that’s a side issue. A more pressing
question is: Why were they given access to highly sensitive government information?
Ordinarily, that requires a security clearance, awarded only after a background
check that peruses ties to foreign countries, associations with unsavory
characters, and vulnerability to blackmail.
These characters could not
possibly have qualified. Never mind access; it’s hard to fathom how they
retained their jobs. The Daily Caller has also discovered that the family,
which controlled several properties, was involved in various suspicious
mortgage transfers. Abid Awan, while working “full-time” in Congress, ran a
curious auto-retail business called “Cars International A” (yes, CIA), through
which he was accused of stealing money and merchandise. In 2012, he discharged
debts in bankruptcy (while scheming to keep his real-estate holdings).
Congressional Democrats hired Abid despite his drunk-driving conviction a month
before he started at the House, and they retained him despite his
public-drunkenness arrest a month after. Beyond that, he and Imran both
committed sundry vehicular offenses. In civil lawsuits, they are accused of
life-insurance fraud.
Democrats now say that any
access to sensitive information was “unauthorized.” But how hard could it have
been to get “unauthorized” access when House Intelligence Committee Dems wanted
their staffers to have unbounded access? In 2016, they wrote a letter to an appropriations subcommittee seeking
funding so their staffers could obtain “Top Secret — Sensitive Compartmented
Information” clearances. TS/SCI is the highest-level security classification.
Awan family members were working for a number of the letter’s signatories.
Democratic members, of
course, would not make such a request without coordination with leadership. Did
I mention that the ranking member on the appropriations subcommittee to whom
the letter was addressed was Debbie Wasserman Schultz?
Why has the investigation
taken so long? Why so little enforcement action until this week? Why, most of
all, were Wasserman Schultz and her fellow Democrats so indulgent of the Awans?
The probe began in late 2016.
In short order, the Awans clearly knew they were hot numbers. They started
arranging the fraudulent credit-union loan in December, and the $283,000 wire
transfer occurred on January 18. In early February, House security services
informed representatives that the Awans were suspects in a criminal investigation.
At some point, investigators found stolen equipment stashed in the Rayburn House Office
Building, including a laptop that appears to belong to Wasserman
Schultz and that Imran was using. Although the Awans were banned from the
Capitol computer network, not only did Wasserman Schultz keep Imran on staff
for several additional months, but Meeks retained Alvi until February 28 — five
days before she skedaddled to Lahore.
Strange thing about that: On
March 5, the FBI (along with the Capitol Police) got to Dulles Airport in time
to stop Alvi before she embarked. It was discovered that she was carrying
$12,400 in cash. As I pointed out this week, it is a felony to export more than $10,000 in
currency from the U.S. without filing a currency transportation
report. It seems certain that Alvi did not file one: In connection with her
husband’s arrest this week, the FBI submitted to the court a complaint affidavit that
describes Alvi’s flight but makes no mention of a currency transportation
report. Yet far from making an arrest, agents permitted her to board the
plane and leave the country, notwithstanding their stated belief that she has
no intention of returning.
Many congressional staffers
are convinced that they’d long ago have been in handcuffs if they pulled what
the Awans are suspected of. Nevertheless, no arrests were made when the scandal
became public in February. For months, Imran has been strolling around the
Capitol. In the interim, Wasserman Schultz has been battling investigators:
demanding the return of her laptop, invoking a constitutional privilege (under
the speech-and-debate clause) to impede agents from searching it, and
threatening the Capitol Police with “consequences” if they don’t relent. Only
last week, according to Fox News, did she
finally signal willingness to drop objections to a scan of the laptop by
federal investigators. Her stridency in obstructing the investigation has been
jarring.
As evidence has mounted, the
scores of Democrats for whom the Awans worked have expressed no alarm. Instead,
we’ve heard slanderous suspicions that the investigation is a product of — all
together now — “Islamophobia.” But Samina Gilani, the Awan brothers’
stepmother, begs to differ. Gilani complained to Virginia police
that the Awans secretly bugged her home and then used the recordings to
blackmail her. She averred in court documents that she was pressured to
surrender cash she had stored in Pakistan. Imran claimed to be “very powerful”
— so powerful he could order her family members kidnapped.
We don’t know if these
allegations are true, but they are disturbing. The Awans have had the
opportunity to acquire communications and other information that could prove
embarrassing, or worse, especially for the pols who hired them. Did the
swindling staffers compromise members of Congress? Does blackmail explain why
were they able to go unscathed for so long?
And as for that sensitive
information, did the Awans send American secrets, along with those hundreds of
thousands of American dollars, to Pakistan?
This is no run-of-the-mill
bank-fraud case.

Imran Awan Becomes Suspect
In Seth Rich Murder Inquiry
July 29, 2017
Imran Awan, the former DNC
staffer who was arrested this week while trying to flee the United States, was
with Seth Rich the night of his murder, according to new photographic
evidence.
Police
who originally investigated the murder suggested that Seth Rich might have been
killed by someone he knew, due to the lack of struggle. The killer also took
nothing from the victim, leaving behind his wallet containing $2000, watch and
phone.
The
photo, which directly links Imran Awan to Seth Rich, also links Debbie
Wasserman Schultz, Awan’s former employer, to the former Seth Rich’s death.
Awan,
who was kept on the DNC payroll for months and received several payments from
Wasserman Schultz, was arrested earlier this week at Dulles airport. while
trying to flee the United States and return to his native Pakistan.
Earlier
this week WND reported that Seth Rich attended a party with
Washington D.C. IT workers the night of his death, and that Rod Wheeler, the
detective investigating the murder, was determined to learn more about who
attended the party:
During
the course of his investigation of Rich’s murder, Wheeler says learned
something peculiar that he hadn’t heard before: Rich attended a party with
numerous IT workers the night he was killed. After the party, Rich went to
Lou’s City Bar, the last known location where he was seen before his murder.
Wheeler
said he was determined to learn more about the IT party and who was in
attendance, but all his questions have gone unanswered.
“Seth attended that party, and I wanted to know
who else was at that party. But I could never find out,” Wheeler
said. “When I went back to ask other people who should have known who
was at that party – these were people who were close to Seth – they told me,
‘You don’t need to know who was at that party because it had nothing to do with
his death.’”
Uncovering
more details about the attendees of the party is essential in the Rich homicide
investigation, Wheeler contends.
“He was at the party before he went to the bar.
What you do in a murder investigation is you work backward. You want to trace
the victim’s steps as far back as you can – who was that person around the day
before? – as far back as you can,” he said.
“What was interesting is when I am told as an
investigator that I don’t need to talk to people who were at the party. It
makes you wonder why.”
Now
that we know Imran Awan was at the party, Rod Wheeler’s statement has become
even more interesting.
Federal
agents arrested Awan, the IT aide of Wasserman Schultz and the top suspect in a
major Democratic hacking scandal, at Dulles Airport in Virginia as he tried to
flee the U.S. and fly to the Mideast.
WND report: Awan’s arrest came just
one day after reports emerged that the FBI had seized numerous “smashed hard
drives” and other computer equipment from Awan’s previous residence. The
former House IT staffer is suspected of stealing sensitive information from the
office computers of numerous Democratic Party lawmakers and sending that data
to a secret server.
Awan
and his family members, all of whom worked as IT professionals for members of
Congress, were banned from the House network Feb. 2, 2017, by the House
Sergeant at Arms.
Despite
the rapidly escalating scandal that potentially involves multiple federal
crimes, Awan had been kept on the payroll of former DNC Chairwoman Debbie
Wasserman Schultz, who circumvented the ban by having him “advise” her office.
In
the wake of WikiLeaks posting damaging internal emails during the 2016
election, Wasserman Schultz resigned from her post as DNC chairwoman and blamed
the scandal on an alleged hacking by Russians.
After
the emails became public, Donna Brazile, who served as interim DNC chairwoman
following Wasserman Schultz’s resignation, initially claimed the messages were
fabricated. Then she alleged Russians stole the emails.
The
FBI requested access to the DNC’s server to determine who was responsible for
the breach. According to former FBI Director James Comey, the DNC refused to
grant access to its server.
Awan
reportedly possessed the password to the iPad Wasserman Schultz used when the
DNC emails were provided to WikiLeaks.
Meanwhile,
some have speculated that Rich – who worked in the voter analysis division of
the DNC and was brutally murdered on July 10, 2016, on a street near his
Washington home – was an inside source who leaked party insider emails to
WikiLeaks during the 2016 presidential race.
“Well, now you have a possible suspect. Here’s
the corrupt IT guy standing on the shoulders of Debbie Wasserman Schultz
arrested at the airport trying to flee, charged with stealing hundreds of
thousands, maybe millions, of dollars,” said Rivera.
“What if he was the source to WikiLeaks? He has
all the passwords. He has all the information. This is a huge story …
Everyone assumed it was the Russians who hacked the DNC and then gave WikiLeaks
the emails,”
said Rivera.
For
a long time people thought that Seth Rich was the person who leaked information
to Wikileaks. Seth Rich was then murdered in a mysterious ‘botched robbery’ in
which nothing was stolen.
“[Wikileaks’ Founder] Assange told me personally
five times that it wasn’t a state or Russia,” said Hannity.
“If you can prove disgruntled Democrats were the
leakers and not the Russians, as Julian Assange has said … doesn’t that
blow the whole thing out of the water?” said Hannity.
