What's the problem?

The FBI raided prominent Democratic politician Jack Evans early Friday morning. He is accused of corruption and conflicts of interest.
That there is big money in politics may be America’s original sin and one that is not easily cleansed.
Look, our democracy is only as good and honest as the people we elect and the people in Washington D.C better start making better choices.
From The Hill:
FBI agents raided the home of D.C. councilman Jack Evans (D) on Friday, a day after a confidential memo made public alleged that Evans “knowingly” violated ethics rules to benefit his friends and clients instead of serving the interests of Washington’s transit agency, Metro.
The Washington Post reported Friday that FBI agents raided Evans’s Georgetown home early in the morning, instructing Evans to wait outside in a car while they conducted a search.
Kadia Koroma, a spokeswoman for the U.S. attorney’s office for the District confirmed the “court-authorized law enforcement activity” at Evans’s house in a statement to the Post.

magaconservatives.com needs to learn that our proper form of
government is a Constitutional Republic and not a democracy.
With friends like them who needs enemies? /rhetorical question

I think we can refer to John Adams on this one:
“Our constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.”
Unless and until this country repents and turns to God (the one true God), we will always be dysfunctional.
They’re attacking a chicken-sh!t local councilman? Does’t the FBI have bigger fish to fry? They’re not aiming high enough, or far enough.
What, did he forget to pay the Vig to the DeeCee machine?
Probably bond out ROR, be hittin’ the bars this evening
“They’re attacking a chicken-sh!t local councilman?”
They are doing it in Chicago too. Hope they start doing it nationwide because these filthy local democrat machines cause a lot of grief.
I am guessing that the councilman decided not to be a pedophile.
“Unless and until this country repents and turns to God (the one true God), we will always be dysfunctional.”
While I agree, this country has become so satanic that becoming secular would be considered a rebound in the right direction.
He is accused of corruption and conflicts of interest.
Isn’t that the DNC part platform?
It did not say he was charged with any crime(s). He was asked to wait in his car. Not arrested. Seems like this was for show. Already cut a deal by Thursday and the raid was on Friday?
We’re always hearing about raids, raids, raids.
The ends justify the means. Right?
So, if they do anything wrong, who’s going to raid them? No one.
Ain’t Amerika great.
“Seems like this was for show.”
Most likely. We’te probably being bamboozled.
SO criminal politicians should not face the music?
“SO criminal politicians should not face the music?”
Not when prosecuted by other criminals. BTW, when is the last time one of these police state types were raided? After all, you might just remember that we have evidence that some of these thugs were involved in a coup attempt.
If you have faith in this justice system, I have some oceanfront property in AZ to sell you.
I’m being a bit cynical here, but you’ll have to admit that the number of raids has drastically increased and with that due process rights. Our BOR was supposed to protect us from these abuses.
Remember the federal agencies are basically unaccountable. I have posted on this issue numerous times.
