There’s an ominous scandal unfolding on Capitol Hill.  But you’d never know that from the complete absence of coverage of it by the mainstream media.

Currently, there are many more questions than answers about the several individuals from Pakistan who long provided IT services to a large number of Democratic members of the House of Representatives. For example: Did they use their access to the lawmakers’ email systems to steal sensitive official and/or personal information? If so, was the ISI, their homeland’s aggressive intelligence service, involved? 

The ISI has long run collection and influence operations against the United States government and interests. Notably, Pakistani intelligence has been a prime enabler of Sharia-supremacists like Osama bin Laden and the Taliban.

The biggest question though is: Why are we not hearing about this scandal – and getting answers about its potentially serious national security implications?
