The FBI on Wednesday raided the office of Virginia Senate President Pro Tempore Louise Lucas in connection with a corruption probe that has ensnared the Democrat power broker and close ally of Gov. Abigail Spanberger, sources told Just the News.

Officials said FBI agents executed search warrants at multiple locations, including a state Senate office in Portsmouth, Va., and a cannabis business with ties to the state senator.

Lucas arrived on scene and told Fox News she did not know what the FBI activity involved.

Lucas has been a powerful figure in Virginia Democrat politics for years, and was an ally of Spanberger who stumped for the future governor during her winning campaign last year.

She also has been a driving force for marijuana legalization in the state.
