Report: Mainstream media is ignoring this massive scandal building around Debbie Wasserman Schultz

The mainstream media has largely ignored the growing scandal surrounding Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-Fla.) and a former aide, according to a new report.

Imran Awan, an IT aide who worked for Wasserman Schultz’s congressional office, was arrested last week on bank fraud charges. The FBI and Capitol Police arrested him as he attempted to board a flight at Dulles International Airport back to his home country of Pakistan, where his wife and three children have been living since March.

Investigators accuse Awan and his wife, Hina Alvi, of attempting to commit bank fraud by misrepresenting themselves on a loan application for a rental property they had. According to the criminal complaint against them, Awan and Alvi had plans to wire the proceeds to people in Pakistan, CNN reports.

Awan worked for a number of congressional offices, but was fired from most of them earlier this year after he and several of his colleagues were accused stealing equipment. However, Wasserman Schultz’s office kept Awan on the payroll up until his arrest last week.

The story took another turn last week after it was revealed the FBI had recovered smashed hard drives from Awan’s home. The contents of those computer drives are not yet known.

However, unless you’re a consumer of conservative-leaning news, you wouldn’t know about the Awan story or the building scandal engulfing Wasserman Schultz and her campaign office.

……

So far, Awan has denied any wrongdoing. His attorney last week said the criminal charges against Awan are politically motivated “anti-Muslim bigotry.”
