Following the Democrat congressional IT aides scandal is an exercise in futility; month after month no charges or representations are made even though breaches occurred.

Serious security breaches, involving illegally accessed classified email communications.

And it appears the House Democrat Caucus was at the focal point of the breaches. The congressman heading the House Democrat Caucus at the time? Xavier Becerra.

As reported the now-busted 5 Pakistani IT aides “…were using the House Democratic Caucus as their central service warehouse. All 5 of the shared employee system administrators collectively logged onto the Caucus system 5,735 times, an average of 27 times per day…” Much of the data accessed was classified.

And, here’s where Becerra may have broken the law: “Becerra’s House Democratic Caucus knew about problems and tried to stop them, according to the presentation, but the suspect defied him. Based on other members’ accounts, Becerra does not appear to have warned other offices that might have been affected.” (emphasis added)

We aren’t cyber-law experts, but failing to reveal breaches seems pretty illegal. And we’re pretty certain lying about the severity of the breaches is aiding and abetting.

How is it a Republican-controlled Congress lets this situation stay hidden from view?

And, how does a feckless congressman qualify to be California’s attorney general?
