WASHINGTON – United States President Donald Trump on Sunday asked the”angry” Democrats to look into “the Pakistani fraudster” and former USSecretary of State Hillary Clinton’s “illegally” deleted emails, amongother things.
Trump also railed against special counsel Robert Mueller’s probe to proveRussia’s alleged role in 2016 presidential election and branded it ‘aDemocrat con job’.
“The Rigged Witch Hunt, originally headed by FBI lover boy Peter S (for oneyear) & now, 13 Angry Democrats, should look into the missing DNC Server,Crooked Hillary’s illegally deleted Emails, the Pakistani Fraudster,Uranium One, Podesta & so much more. It?s a Democrat Con Job!,” Trumptweeted.
President Trump’s Pakistani fraudster is Imran Awan, who along with hisbrother Abid Awan, and five other family members and associates, is at theheart of the brewing IT Scandal which has put Congressional data at risk.
Awan, a former IT aide to Representative Debbie Wasserman Schultz, whoinvestigators concluded, made “unauthorized access” to the House ofRepresentatives servers.They worked as shared IT employees for 44 HouseDemocrats and had access to the House members’ sensitive data, includingemails, calendars, constituents’ data, and personal files, despite havinglittle to no IT experience, according to the local media reports.
Awan’s father Haji Ashraf Awan was giving data to Pakistan, alleged thefather’s ex-business partner, adding that Imran bragged he had the power to”change the U.S. president,” the New York based Epoch Times reported.
Imran began working for the House of Representatives in 2004. A report inthe Epoch Times states that most members of his immediate family are alsoworking as IT aides to Democrats in the House of Representatives.
In his tweet, the US president also targeted FBI agent Peter Strzok who wasremoved from Mueller’s probe last year after it was discovered that he hadexchanged anti-Trump text messages with another FBI staffer, Lisa Page.
A slew of anti-Trump messages were found to be exchanged between the twovia government devices. One of them was about Strzok vowing to ‘stop’ Trumpfrom being elected just months before the presidential elections.
On August 8, 2016, Page had sent a message to Strzok asking “[Trump’s] notever going to become president, right? Right?!” and Strzok replied “No. Nohe won’t. We’ll stop it.”He is set to testify before the House JudiciaryCommittee next week.
On a related note, Trump has repeatedly taken an aim at Mueller’sinvestigation, calling it a “witch hunt”.
