How can those serving this nation be so damned careless as to not have properly vetted this "family" IT business before sharing their services.
Aye carumba. They were fired last week and here's an update. What is really disturbing is there apparently is an external server that House data was being funneled to.
The shit better hit the fan on this. Some heads should roll. And for crying out loud those on the Hill better get their crap wired tight. This is unacceptable.
Worth reading the whole article but expect your head to start spinning like Linda Blair's in the Exorcist.
"Four people who worked for the House of Representatives have a history of massive debts and bankruptcy, a fondness for fast cars and real estate, and unusually complicated webs of intertwined finances.
The three brothers and a wife of one of them are under criminal investigation into sensitive congressional information security.
Chiefs of staff for dozens of Democratic lawmakers who employed the four were informed last week 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.
Brothers Imran, Abid, and Jamal Awan and Hina Alvi, Imran’s wife, each made $160,000 a year as information technology workers for the House.
Their salaries and time were shared among dozens of Democratic members, including former Democratic National Committee Chairman Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz of Florida. The lawmakers also include members of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence and the House Committee on Foreign Affairs.
Waaaaaaaaaaay more at the link.
