Alleged #Whistleblower Harassment #Lawsuit involving #SanLeandro #PublicOfficials sheds new light on mutual #Democrat dupes involved in #Oakland #FBI #PublicCorruption case.

Ex-San Leandro city manager lawsuit claims that that "federal investigation target" Councilmember Bryan Azevedo, and 2 other elected colleagues interfered with her duties, harassed her until she left employment after refusing to quietly approve public funding for a controversial “tiny homes” scheme by now #indicted #Waste #contractors under federal legal scrutiny.

Political pressure plot tie-ins involve elected officials linked to ex #OaklandMayor #ShengThao and her husband who apparently worked on behalf of their regional #Recycling contractor patrons hoping to add million$ to their #taxpayer teat tab for habilitating #homeless #TinyHome #housing units.

#MayorThao's home, that was owned by the local #CalWaste Solutions contractors, was raided by feds a year ago while she was embroiled in an unprecedented #recall campaign, which she lost. The ties to local Democrat party political officials became apparent in ensuing months, as details of friendships and feuds amongst those with mutual financial prospects in proposed homeless #housing schemes leaked and became clearer.

#Oaklandside does it again! "Loren Taylor shaded [RCV] after his loss." That's an understatement. I was disappointed to see this important Council member stoop to disparaging RCV as the reason for his loss.
