      If she's done business with the Duong family, they could be looking for confidential data about them. For instance, if the Duongs are being investigated for corruption, bribery, or whatever, they may be looking for evidence of it in their dealings with the mayor. There are many possibilities. I can't stand the mayor or mayors like her or progressive DAs, but taking 30 seconds to think through something rather than blurting out what you want to be true is generally a good idea.

    Recology is the instigator in this case. I believe Mayor Thao was targetted due to her courageous progressive stance. Same subterfuge surfaced in San Francisco whereby the California Attorney General uncovered a pay to play with CCSF employee Abraham Nuru almost costing CCSF taxpayers $100 million. Nuru sits in federal prison. It was my tip that put him in.

      Maybe. Maybe something more. Thao doesn't have a progressive bone in her. She is working for someone who owns her.She got caught talking and the FBI was listening in but probably not her being the target.They didn't arrest her yet

      First, there was no "Rambo" scenes. Second, you are deluded by using Vietnam as an example of good government.
