From the Conservative Tribune:
Millions of U.S. taxpayer dollars were being foolishly wasted paying for the salaries of non-existent “ghost” soldiers and policemen in Afghanistan under the Obama administration, but no more.
According to the special inspector general for Afghanistan reconstruction, John Sopko, who recently sat down for an interview with Sharyl Attkinson of Full Measure, the ongoing problem may have been worse than anyone realized, but was being addressed by President Donald Trump’s Pentagon.
“We’ve been raising this concern about ghosts going back a number of years,” Sopko said.
“Actually I want to say we heard about it from (Afghan President) Ashraf Ghani years ago, before he became president, he warned me about ‘ghosts,’ so we started looking three years ago.”
'ghost employees' appears to be 'SOP' (standard operating procedure) for the Obama/Clinton administration.

Stuart Varney : This is a truly developing story of great import! The “Daily Caller” reports, Three Congressional IT, ‘information technology’ workers have been fired. Liz, who were they?
Elizabeth MacDonald: Abid, Imran and Jamal Awan. They worked for Homeland Security, Intelligence and Foreign Affairs Committees on computer systems. So, they were tech support guys and they were – or allegedly, they broke into these members computers – twenty plus members computers , here, of Congress, of The House. And the fear is they also stole equipment, stole data, possibly stole e-mails. That’s the fear.
Stuart Varney: So, three people – FIRED - and there’s a criminal probe I think looking into others?
Elizabeth MacDonald: There were five, a total of five in this group. I think there are three or four brothers and I think one woman.
Stuart Varney: And then they allegedly accessed the information of Congress people who were on three important committees.
House Intelligence
Homeland Security
and Foreign Affairs
This is dramatic, indeed.
Elizabeth MacDonald: Twenty-plus members of Congress
Stuart Varney: This is a gigantic story and it’s been around for a while. Not reported. The ‘Daily Caller’ got that story and now it’s been, it’s out there publicly.
Elizabeth MacDonald: Yeah, and I’ll tell you, you know, one of the Congressmen at play here, just reporters here being journalists. Remember Congressman Andre Carson was at a microphone, at a hot mic and Nancy Pelosi said, ‘tell them you’re a muslim’. And he had hired these workers. Now, that’s not to say
Stuart Varney: Woah, woah, woah, wait! Andre Carson is a Congressman, and a democrat. He’s a Congressman. The other night, on a podium with Nancy Pelosi...Nancy Pelosi said ‘tell them you’re a muslim.’‘tell them you’re a muslim.’ and he did. And this man, this Mr. Carson, he hired these three people to work in IT and they’ve now been fired and allegedly, they accessed the personal information of Congress people on three key intelligence committees.
Elizabeth MacDonald: Yes, Andre Carson is one of the 20-plus Congressmen. Again, we don’t know the religious background of these workers who were fired. So, just to be clear. This is what is at stake and this is an under-reported story about the security, our national security and how Congress, members of Congress protect that information because they cover terrorism, right? They cover terrorism strategies and anti-terrorism strategies on these committees.
Stuart Varney: Am I right in saying that one of the people fired had a criminal record?
Elizabeth MacDonald: Yes, he had ...he’s a felon ...he has a criminal record, yeah, also filed for bankruptcy as well.
Stuart Varney: And these three – they’re brothers, I think, am I right?
Elizabeth MacDonald: The three are brothers, yes. Maybe four brothers.
Stuart Varney: All of them make over $100k a year
Elizabeth MacDonald: $160k a year, three times the average of IT House worker
Stuart Varney: And there were crimin, one is a criminal felon introduced into the IT department of Congress
Elizabeth MacDonald: Correct. That’s correct. Yep.
Stuart Varney Well, that’s one of the bigger news stories of the day in my personal opinion.

So, sez I - what were the occult funds used for and so much for Obama's promised (lie) of the most transparent of governments.
ReplyDeleteIs the money in a bank in Dubai?
So sez I:
ReplyDeleteThis is a very small tip of a very large iceberg.
Large amounts of Climate Change and LGBT monies are similarly diverted.
Except the difference is, it is in the 100's of billions, IMO.
