Cosko Is Not An Unpaid Intern (paid by outside institution)

American Greatness
Julie Gunlock
Oct. 6, 2018

Capitol Police on October 3 arrested 27-year old congressional staffer Jackson Cosko for posting on Wikipedia the private addresses of three members of  the Senate Judiciary Committee—what’s known as “doxxing” (a word derived from the shorthand for “document”). Cosko is facing serious charges that include illegally posting private information of public figures, witness tampering, threats, identity theft, and unlawful entry.

In the mainstream media, Cosko is being portrayed as a hapless overzealous intern who didn’t even have the smarts to cover up his criminal act. His former boss— Rep. Sheila Jackson-Lee (D-Texas) has denied she knew anything about Cosko’s activities. In a press conference held this week, Jackson-Lee explained that she fired Cosko and is cooperating with officials investigating the crimes. (Interestingly, cameras recorded Jackson-Lee passing an envelope to Christine Blasey Ford’s lawyer just before her testimony got underway.)

Many Questions, Few Answers So Far
Yet, Jackson-Lee still has some explaining to do. While she claims Cosko was an “unpaid intern” in her office, the Washington Post reports that Cosko was actually a “fellow.” This was confirmed by Cosko’s lawyer, who said his client was a “fellow” in Jackson-Lee’s office and that he was being paid by an “outside institution.”

We knew he wasn't unpaid.  You don't live and function in DC unless you're fairly well paid.

But I don't recall hearing before about 'fellows.' As Gunlock asks, who pays them? Are they vetted?

Another rock turned over.

I do not know what constitutes a 'fellow' now.

I am familiar with them years ago as I worked for 4 years under a fellowship for the federal government while attending college.  I was paid by the US government.

I am only kidding. Where would this country be if all the billions of youth hadn't gotten their start in life working for the fed/gov?  :laugh:

It was a helpful start, but when the fulltime position came along, I politely declined the invite.

A "fellow traveler", a la the 1950's.
That should cover it.

As in... "democrat-communist".

Maybe it isn't an organization. Maybe it is a foundation.

When ACORN was shut down some members helped found the Working Families Party. They never go away but just reorganize.
