Whether or not it includes the FBI, the right wing definitely wants Oakland Mayor outta there! Scoffing at this does not improve your credibility. Gotta admit the timing of bust + recall was a bit much. Also, since when are we absolutely sure that the FBI is always absolutely committed to the Rule of Law? Remember J. Edgar and Roy? And spare me simplistic ropes about what is making crime worse please--
Agreed that the feds and law enforcement in general often fabricate evidence, lie under oath, etc. Not saying it doesn't happen. Nevertheless, the Mayor still needs evidence of that to make the claims she is making. Anything less undermines the rule of law for everyone, when it is already under attack by many. Thanks for reading.
