The FBI raid on the Texas home and campaign headquarters of Rep. Henry Cuellar is reportedly related to a criminal probe into ties between several US businessmen and the former Soviet state of Azerbaijan.
On Friday, federal agents were seen at Cuellar's home in Laredo, photographing trucks parked outside and removing boxes, bins, bags and a computer from the house.
The FBI would only confirm that it is conducting an 'ongoing investigation', but a source told ABC News that the raid was related to a federal grand jury investigation into possible crimes related to Azerbaijan.
It's still not clear whether Cuellar himself is a subject or target of the probe, and he has vowed to cooperate with any investigation.
The nine-term Democrat is co-chair of the Congressional Azerbaijan Caucus, an obscure group dedicated to furthering relations with the oil-rich nation on the Caspian Sea.
In that role, Cuellar is known to have met repeatedly with Azerbaijan officials, including the country's ambassador to the US, Elin Suleymanov.

A democrat just cannot be a conservative that wants to save this Country. You just have to think like and support their 'tear down this Country' agenda. And you sure do not want to look like you have even seen President Trump, because you will be on their hit list till you are destroyed. Has it not happened already? Well I for one do not want to live in a 3rd world country and will never miss a chance to vote. Hopefully vote out every democrat/socialist/fascist/marxist/communist politician!
BULL SCHIFF!...................STASI!
It has been rumored they are pleasant enough people but the will eat their own.

Hunter will contact Henry, the Big Guy will get his "cut" and we'll never hear of this again.
Looks like the Democrates have mastered the art of corruption . 'Big Guy " Biden & son ,,,, Clinton Foundation .. . S.Whitehouse Insider trading ..Polosi insider trading . The list is long and continues to grow at a rapid pace .
Their party has become nothing more "rich thives club. " That,s my opinion !
I think the democrats are beginning to "eat their own". The conservatives must be careful we don’t do the same !
Yea soft on crime hard on independent thought. The national anthem for the democommies of America might be the British tune popular during the America Revolution "A World Upside Down".
It is getting to be a perk of being a democrat president. It is a license to steal and have people killed harassed or financilly ruined. Clinton and Biden are both crooks. They both might be sexual predators. We the American People, are sitting here like a bunch of lazy, and ignorant dumbasses and letting the democrats ruin this country. It is 10 months before the election and another 3 months until they have to leave office. A hell of a lot can happen between now and then. The Constitution should not allow any changes except through the process set out in the Constitution. They are trying to make an end run around the people. We are pretty sure that the people of NY would not support this crap that they are trying to sell. I can only pound away on this computer and make phone calls and that won't make a hill of beans. We need the elected leaders to get off their asses and do something. I am not opposed to a march on DC and demand and harass our leaders until they act. We have lost too many young people to let this country be taken over by a bunch of over educated liberals son of bitches.
You have nailed it. Nothing I can add to that.
This sure seems like a Hillary move. Using the US Govt to take down Whoever does not agree with Her. LOCK HER UP!!! I seem to have heard that somewhere.
