BREAKING:

@FoxNews

is on scene in Portsmouth, VA where the FBI is raiding the office of Virginia Senate President Pro Tempore L Louise Lucas, a Democrat and close ally of VA Governor Spanberger. Fed law enforcement sources tell FOX this is in connection to a major corruption probe, and the FBI is serving multiple search warrants, approved by a federal judge, at her office and a next door cannabis dispensary. More to come with correspondent

@AlexHoganTV

, who reports that Lucas just showed up on scene as the FBI searches her office.

The woman is your typical Democrat with connections to a number of marijuana dispensaries. Me thinks she smokes the Devil's lettuce.

Multiple arrests have been made, both of her staffers and employees of the pot shops, and in one instance the FBI came in with weapons drawn.

That suggests to me this is about organized crime. She may well turn out to be one of those "politicians you carry around in your pockets like nickels and dimes" to borrow a quote from The Godfather.

Politics has always been tinged with corruption but now I think it goes well beyond some isolated areas. Now it is nation-wide and infects every aspect of political life in America. I think it's why the GOP won't fight the Democrats; they are in business with them and the political arena is purely for showw.

But this is a new era and the DOJ isn't playing around anymore.

This is a VERY welcome development. America deserves a better government than she has been getting.
