FBI raids California Capitol building

|Blog ---
FBI agents raided Tuesday the office of California state senator Ron Calderon and another location in the state Capitol.

“This afternoon, agents from the Federal Bureau of Investigation served search warrants in the state Capitol at the office of Senator Ron Calderon and in the Legislative Office Building at the Latino Legislative Caucus office. Those warrants are sealed by order of the federal court; therefore we have no further information,” CBS quoted Senate Chief Sergeant-at-Arms Tony Beard as saying.

Law enforcement officials said the agents were looking for evidence of an investigation during the raids, the LA Times reported.

Calderon represents Montebello, Whittier, Bell, Pico Rivera, South Gate and La Mirada, among other cities.

The search may be due to complaints about the “big money” water contract awards, including one that went to the senator’s brother, Tom Calderon, according to the report.

Sources with knowledge of the probe said, the FBI’s move is part of a broader public corruption investigation in Los Angeles County, the Times said.

Well, the way they make shows is, they make one show. That show's called a pilot. Then they show that show to the people who make shows, and on the strength of that one show they decide if they're going to make more shows.

Like you, I used to think the world was this great place where everybody lived by the same standards I did, then some kid with a nail showed me I was living in his world, a world where chaos rules not order, a world where righteousness is not rewarded. That's Cesar's world, and if you're not willing to play by his rules, then you're gonna have to pay the price.

You think water moves fast? You should see ice. It moves like it has a mind. Like it knows it killed the world once and got a taste for murder. After the avalanche, it took us a week to climb out. Now, I don't know exactly when we turned on each other, but I know that seven of us survived the slide... and only five made it out. Now we took an oath, that I'm breaking now. We said we'd say it was the snow that killed the other two, but it wasn't. Nature is lethal but it doesn't hold a candle to man.

You see? It's curious. Ted did figure it out - time travel. And when we get back, we gonna tell everyone. How it's possible, how it's done, what the dangers are. But then why fifty years in the future when the spacecraft encounters a black hole does the computer call it an 'unknown entry event'? Why don't they know? If they don't know, that means we never told anyone. And if we never told anyone it means we never made it back. Hence we die down here. Just as a matter of deductive logic.
