#1 Futher explained from the link found in the above article:

“Based on the modest way Awan was living, it is my opinion that he was sending most of his money to a group or criminal organization that could very well be connected with the Pakistani government,” said Wayne Black, a private investigator who served as law enforcement group supervisor in Janet Reno’s Miami public corruption unit. “My instincts tell me Awan was probably operating a foreign intelligence gathering operation on US soil.”

Officials told Politico that prosecutors refused to help them punish top Hezbollah operatives involved in its money laundering network because of political concerns, such as fears of jeopardizing the Obama administration’s deal with Iran. Similarly, the Awans, who had close relationships to House Democrats including Debbie Wasserman Schultz and Gregory Meeks, have not been charged with any crimes surrounding the dealership nor with their House activities. The disclosure of a House IT breach shortly before the election by Pakistani-born Democratic staffers would have had political fallout.

No sense conducting full background checks and documenting their neferious foreign contacts now is there ?

#2 ...Sadly, nothing will come of this. The Awans are in Pakistan laughing at us, and the politicians are covering each other.

And I would bet the house payment that Congress' IT program isn't one tiny bit more secure.

This long-running Awan business (data manipulation and transfer) could have been impetus for the Clinton off-site server effort. Why alter what is working so well ?

#4 From the people that use 'password' or '12345' to login this is hardly surprising...
