Breaking - Sen. Bob Menendez charged for corruption & bribery
This is the second time in 10 years he's been charged.
Ugh. This isn't doing our party any favors 🤬

Wait until someone finds pedo joes 10% of all those ukraine billions.

It's LIEden's InJustice Department. Temper your expectations accordingly.

Wasn’t he on trial for something several years ago? And managed to get off.

Hung jury, 2018.
Personally, when Menedez and wife start modeling orange jumpsuits in a Federally-managed GreyBar Hotel, I'll consider the possibility that this is not a Potemkin Prosecution.

How crazy do you have to be to keep $100K in gold bars in your home? The cash is money he’s received “off the books”, I have no doubt.

Most of the media runs stories couched in lines such as this: Inflation spikes, how does this affect President Biden?
The collective media care more about the Democrat party than the American people.

Wow, not a single DUmmie is defending him!
I heard on the radio that he's claiming persecution and innocence.LOL

Someone did try whataboutism, and got called on it. I am mildly surprised, but perhaps, as one DU-member put it, Menendez exceeded his sell-by date in 2018 (though he did get reelected that year).
It's a measure of Menendez's arrogance, IMO, that the same year he survived by hung jury was the year he embarked on the corruption for which he is currently charged (and a member of the Intelligence committee funneling confidential and/or secret information to Egypt, what is that?!).
One rather notable MIA in the DU discussion, when I looked, was brooklynite. I wonder what he might have contributed in less well known information.

If that’s the case he should be tried for treason and shot :thatsright: :argh:

This guy must be dumber than Crooked Joe Biden and that's pretty damned dumb. Dumb as he is, even Joe knew enough to have the bribes sent to his brothers, kids, grandkids, and in laws.
You have to get someone to hold it for you until the heat is off.

It’s also important to point out he’s from NJ which is Dem safe state. If he were from a State that was predominantly Republican, the primitives would be singing a different song.

Yes. For them, love of country and love of party seem to have just melded into one.

He also pulled the "Latino" card:
Democrat Sen. Bob Menendez defends himself against bribery charges: 'Active smear campaign'
'The excesses of these prosecutors is apparent,' Menendez said in a statement
Menenez has denied all wrongdoing and insisted that he will not resign.
"Those who believe in justice believe in innocence until proven guilty. I intend to continue to fight for the people of New Jersey with the same success I’ve had for the past five decades," Menendez said in a defiant statement. "This is the same record of success these very same leaders have lauded all along. It is not lost on me how quickly some are rushing to judge a Latino and push him out of his seat. I am not going anywhere."

I, uh, don't find that denial very convincing. Sounds very much like "I didn't do it, TALK ABOUT SOMETHING ELSE!!!".
