FBI Searches New Fed CIO Kundra's Former Offices

CWmike writes "While new federal CIO Vivek Kundra gave a speech here this morning on his vision for the US government's use of technology, the FBI conducted a search of the District of Columbia's IT offices — where Kundra worked until last week — and arrested an employee and another person who works for an outsourcing vendor, say reports. There was no indication that Kundra was connected in any way to the FBI's raid, which was part of a bribery sting operation. And if Kundra was aware of what was going on at his former offices or concerned about the raid, it wasn't evident during his speech at FOSE 2009, a trade show focused on government IT. The FBI would not comment on the reports. President Barack Obama last week appointed Kundra to be the federal government's first official CIO."

    It's a valid question.

    No, it's not. AS TFS says itself, there's not one bit of dirt on the actual appointee, just two ex-subordinates.

    Other Obama appointments might be big bags of fail, but so far, this one isn't. When he is, then GP can make his point. Otherwise, he's just a lazy and biased cunt like you are.

    A moderation of "Troll" on /. often (but not always) means: "inconvenient fact."

    is a well known terrorist

    Yes he is.

    but if you deny it you are clearly trolling or obviously ignorant)

    Speaking of disingenuous, you might also want to mention, in the interests of not trolling, of course, that the man was not convicted of any crime whatsoever and that thye word "Terrorist", thanks to the valiant efforts of team Bush, no longer has the same cachet it had 8 years ago.
