In a significant turn of events, the FBI has raided the Oakland home of Democrat Mayor Sheng Thao. Early this morning, agents were seen exiting the mayor's residence with boxes and other items, suggesting a substantial investigation. The raid is part of a broader operation involving multiple locations across Oakland, including City Hall and properties linked to California Waste Solutions. Speculations indicate potential financial misconduct, possibly involving improper contracts and illegal fund distribution. This development adds to Mayor Thao's troubles, as she faces a recall effort with over 40,000 signatures submitted. This incident underscores growing concerns over the effectiveness and integrity of progressive leadership in Oakland amidst rising crime and administrative issues.
