No specific allegations have been released; however, CBS is reporting the FBI raid on Virginia State Senator L. Louise Lucas appears to be in relation to a bribery scheme connected to a marijuana dispensary business where Lucas was a partner.
VIRGINIA (CBS) – The FBI on Wednesday searched the office of longtime Virginia state Sen. L. Louise Lucas in Portsmouth, Virginia, a bureau spokesperson told CBS News.
Lucas was a key figure in pushing a new congressional map through Virginia’s legislature that adds four Democratic-leaning seats. The map was approved in a ballot referendum in April but is currently on hold while the Virginia Supreme Court considers the legality of the new map.
Investigators are looking into an alleged bribery scheme in connection with the marijuana dispensary business, according to a source familiar with the matter.
A cannabis dispensary co-owned by Lucas was also being searched by federal law enforcement officials, the spokesperson confirmed.
There was no public statement on what investigation is specifically focused on or what the court-authorized law enforcement activity is related to. A source familiar with the matter said the investigation started during the Biden administration. (read more)
Publish all her financial disclosure statements; all her property ownership interests; any other publicly available information that will contribute to a fuller and more complete picture of how her financial holdings have grown while she’s been in office.
Also check under their mattress and safe or blocks of frozen cash in the freezer.
Without a doubt, guilty as sin….

She has been in office since 1992.
She was instrumental in legalizing pot in Virginia.
Did she have her hand in the pot?
LOL
Drain the Virginia Swamp

The first rule of being a dealer is to not get messed up by their own supply.
Small beans compared to the rest of the illicit business likely to be in this case.
You want good weed?
Come to my store for the best indeed.
I am black and I am proud.
If they try to arrest me I’ll be singing loud!
Sayin’ “Trump’s RACIST, TRUMP’S RACIST!
No Justice …no Peace…
No piece no justice.
neil young?
There was a mayor of Fall River Mass. that was involved with illegal conduct and weed, green bud, wacky tobaci….
Almost sounds the same?
These individuals in federal government and state governments are involved in ALL of these Grows of dope.
China is the main operator and Grower and suppliers to “Dispensaries” sliding big cash bucks that are undetectable.
There is definitely something in this.
Governor Mill’s extended family has ties with grows of Chinese Triad dope in Maine.
Here in Indiana, in the Dem primary for State Senate District 31 yesterday, a man named Andrew Dezelan lost but still received nearly 1200 votes.
Dezelan was arrested on May 5 for cocaine possession and resisting arrest while canvassing in the district. He was apparently “high on his own supply.” And 1200 Democrats voted for him.
You are exactly right. There are politicians from both parties at every level of government who are involved with the drug business.
The first rule of being a drug dealer is also the first rule they end up breaking…
Yes indeed. 1200 Hoosier Democrats actually cast a vote for a real life “Tony Montana.”
The democrat party is a domestic terrorist organization.
What an odd thing to say. This appears to be a bribery case, not terrorism.
Lol, parents just want to be able to be involved in their children’s education that’s forced upon them, but they got labeled “domestic terrorist” by Biden’s FBI
It doesn’t appear that President Trump’s FBI is calling this situation “terrorism.”
Yeah, since about the 1840’s .
Bleeding Kansas…
They also lead both parties in corruption! Senator Fedderman is the only Democrat in the entire party who makes any sense of any kind! JMO
Organized crime also applies. Racketeers using our taxes as house money.
Whatever the corrupt business the politicians engage in, the mafia scratches their beards
Country Music Kash will now assume Bondie Bondi’s slot on @ Fox.
Virginia is now in the weeds.
Virginia is a cesspool more specifically Northern VA!
Richmond and the Tidewater are cesspools too.
Don’t forget roanoke, the worst run and most derided ‘city’ in the commonwealth
Rich Men North of Richmond.
Just Human on Telegram has a lot of details on this. He does a great job covering the legal details.

Among other things it looks like COVID PPP and EIDL fraud is part of the picture.
I live in the next city over from Portsmouth, Virginia Beach, she has always been shady and I pray she gets what she deserves.
Smoke ‘em if you got ‘em Louise. The party appears to be over.
Ha Ha…probably anticipates her race and gender will give her a pass…and until now…it probably has…
Is she wearing a wig? Looks like one my 80 year old Grandma wore 20 years ago…
numbers: yes, that is a wig.
Love CBS’ new ‘non-partisan’ approach, framing the raid as a revenge operation because she redrew the electoral map. In reality these incidents are probably being generated by increasing intelligence on the financial systems that are used to prop up the Democratic Party. I very much doubt that the alleged bribery was solely to enrich individuals, like most organised crime a cut is taken, with the majority going to fund the organisation.
My other suspicion is that all the recent investigations of fraud and attendant criminality, that seemingly riddle the Party, stem from the cooperation between DOGE and numerous inter-government agencies. With the pattern of discoveries resembling those of a compromised network of couriers and their contacts. My guess is that these operations will continue across the country, as the DS shadow financing is uncovered, layer, by layer.
CP: saw reporting that the investigation actually started under the AutoPen regime for this particular case.
I totally agree that having Bessent and Treasury dialed into watching the money flows is key.
Shoulda partnered with some dirty Somali’s. Day know how da get da Benjamins!
