Oakland is embroiled in a significant political scandal involving Mayor Sheng Thao and other government officials. An FBI raid revealed that officials allegedly received donations laundered through a sex trafficking and drug ring. The scandal includes accusations that the Oakland progressive political machine was funded with straw donations from a bar that served as a front for a brothel and drug emporium. Additionally, the city council allegedly violated bidding laws to award a massive recycling contract to a mob front, despite staff recommendations against it. This has led to widespread issues with waste management in Oakland, with overflowing trash cans and litter in commercial corridors and bus stops. The controversy has sparked broader discussions about corruption among West Coast progressives.

This whole Oakland prostitution, drugs, and straw donations scandal has once again proven my longtime argument hat West Coast progressives are the most corrupt political movement in America and nobody admits it because the media agrees with the politics of the criminals
So basically it turns out that the Oakland progressive political machine was funded with straw donations from a bar that was a front for a brothel/drug emporium that was owned by the same family that the city violated its own bidding laws to give a massive recycling contract
Damn no wonder Oakland has trash everywhere and every single trash can on the commercial corridors and bus stops is over flowing with litter and shit. City council chose a mob front over an actual serious waste company despite staff's recommendations. https://t.co/5N69sQt1Vi
