Is a central figure in the Oakland FBI investigation seeking a Trump pardon?
"Duong, who traveled to Florida last month for undisclosed reasons, seems to have endorsed the message - or people close to him may be advocating for it."
"Trump has shown a willingness to grant clemency to political allies, most notably issuing pardons to 1,500 people involved in the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol."
Former Oakland Mayor Sheng Thao and associates are facing a lengthy federal bribery investigation, with CEO David Duong of California Waste Solutions appearing to explore a potential pardon from President Trump. Recent articles encouraging such a move have circulated, with Duong's company sharing mentions of the pardon. Despite heavy donations to both Republican and Democratic politicians, and his substantial support for Trump, no formal request for a pardon has been confirmed. The situation reflects the complexities of political fundraising and clemency in federal legal cases.
