Clearly the FBI is unfairly picking on Democrats.

Visual references would be extremely beneficial and appropriate for this matter.

Strip clubs often are fronts for organized crime, money laundering, etc.

Fortunately, I only paid cash at Cheetahs. That, and I was never there after 94. Besides, the Palamino was always a better club.

I know a lot of the players in this. I'm shocked, shocked! that there is political influence peddling with stripper cash in Vegas! Actually, some need to be hung out to dry, but these are only the mid level crooks, so the question is, why the FBI? It is probably politics from the other guys before the election.
To: Dante3
I cannot belive the hate and rancor I find in your message. WE do not have legal "strip Joints" making illegal contributions to California Politicians. After the Vegas Politicans get through with the strip clubs and any other enterprise that makes money, there is none left to send to La La Land. We have so many crooked politicans here the FBI has a field office here.
Things got so bad we had to elect a " Mafia Mayor" to keep it under control. P.S. he has done a really good job as Mayor...

Visual references would be extremely beneficial and appropriate for this matter. Something like this what you had in mind? Sort of gives new meaning to the term *Probed by FBI Agents,* doesn't it?

Were I a FBI agent, I know to which search team I'd rather be assigned...

Strip clubs often are fronts for organized crime, money laundering, etc. Well, okay then, so long as there's no drug use or prostitution going on there.

Were I a FBI agent, I know to which search team I'd rather be assigned... It's a dirty job, but somebody's got to do it. Still, I suppose some would prefer to deal with high-level mob guys who have been known to offer feds large, untracable cash bribes....

Is there a "swing club" angle in this?
