Denninger: Coverup in DC - What Else Is New?

"Virtue signalling" and "diversity politics" are nasty things when you get down to the reality of it.

But when applied to places where sensitive activities take place, like, for instance, in the US Capitol, they're suicidal.

So it should be no surprise that the Democrats are doing everything in their power ( https://tinyurl.com/y779byqa ) to prevent the result of their idiocy from becoming known widely.

House investigators concluded that Democratic IT aides made unauthorized access to congressional servers in 2016, allegedly accessing the data of members for whom they did not work, logging in as members of Congress themselves, and covering their tracks, according to a presentation summarizing the findings of a four-month internal probe.

Their behavior mirrored a “classic method for insiders to exfiltrate data from an organization,” and they continued even after orders to stop, the briefing materials allege. There are indications that numerous members’ data may have been secretly residing not on their designated servers, but instead aggregated onto one server, according to the briefing and other sources. Authorities said that the entire server was then physically stolen.

Where did it all go?

Probably to Pakistan.

May I remind you that Pakistan is engaged in a cold war of sorts with India and that both sides have nukes?

Who did it?  Almost-certainly Imran Awan and others, all of whom were either hired directly by Democrat members of Congress or were their spouses and others.

Rather than employ Americans to take care of IT needs Democrats 

imported foreigners and effectively invited persons engaged in espionage into the inner halls of our government.

Of course nobody wants to go after this -- including Trump, by the way, which is one hell of an indictment standing alone.  Can someone tell me why our President doesn't find the likely theft of government data by foreigners who were hired without reason, simply to pass a "virtue signalling" test, an utterly outrageous act for which people should be expelled from office and then indicted, and why is it that everyone involved who isn't a sitting member of Congress is not in the dock right now for what certainly appear to be very serious federal crimes?

Maybe you can come up with a plausible explanation for this other than that Trump is equally guilty through his refusal to run this as far up the ass of the DNC and Democrats in Congress as necessary.

Take your best shot in the comments, if you dare.
