This week, the #FBI agent who was leading the investigation into Mayor #MurielBowser was fired by the #Trump admin for having taken part in a #criminal inquiry into Trump’s attempts to overturn the #2020election.
The #PublicCorruption unit inside the prosecutors’ office that would typically be responsible for pushing the case forward has also been badly damaged by a series of dismissals & resignations stemming from Trump’s efforts to seek #revenge against #DOJ ofcls & his perceived enemies.

Alleged #Whistleblower Harassment #Lawsuit involving #SanLeandro #PublicOfficials sheds new light on mutual #Democrat dupes involved in #Oakland #FBI #PublicCorruption case.
Ex-San Leandro city manager lawsuit claims that that "federal investigation target" Councilmember Bryan Azevedo, and 2 other elected colleagues interfered with her duties, harassed her until she left employment after refusing to quietly approve public funding for a controversial “tiny homes” scheme by now #indicted #Waste #contractors under federal legal scrutiny.
Political pressure plot tie-ins involve elected officials linked to ex #OaklandMayor #ShengThao and her husband who apparently worked on behalf of their regional #Recycling contractor patrons hoping to add million$ to their #taxpayer teat tab for habilitating #homeless #TinyHome #housing units.
#MayorThao's home, that was owned by the local #CalWaste Solutions contractors, was raided by feds a year ago while she was embroiled in an unprecedented #recall campaign, which she lost. The ties to local Democrat party political officials became apparent in ensuing months, as details of friendships and feuds amongst those with mutual financial prospects in proposed homeless #housing schemes leaked and became clearer.

It’s hard for me to understand the massive amount of public sector #CORRUPTION that Americans think is acceptable.
Why do so many people consider #bribery, #fraud, #selfdealing, #graft, and other #corrupt actions by the regime and its supporters to be okay? Is it just widespread #cynicism or something else?
Why are people not outraged anymore about the #dishonesty of public servants?
