Menendez bribery scandal

[jaF0]

From the same article:

"The pressure is also growing in Washington. Rep. Jeff Jackson, D-N.C., compared Menendez to Rep. George Santos, who was charged with fraud, money-laundering and theft in May. "


Georgie's a liar, a fool and a jackass. If any of this case is true, Bobby is a foreign agent and possibly got into espionage.

US v McDonnell look it up

 

[BabyBoomer50s]

yes we all know Republicans don't care about law and order....Menendez should resign, and if he doesn't, he should be booted from the party.

A rare case of Senate bipartisanship. Only one Senator (Fetterman) is calling for Menendez to resign.

 

[BabyBoomer50s]

So look people are reacting and in a days time… your leaders? Mums the word on the losers in your party.

That’s the difference in the groups. Your party has nothing.

See who else calls him out tomorrow on the Sunday shows. Will be plenty.

Yes, mums the word on both sides of the aisle in the US Senate. #Bipartisanship

Shows start at 9.

Guess they are busy with trying to get confirmed leaders for our military branches. Good thing the football coach was able to single handedly hold back all those promotions.

Jobs were getting done but holding all those families in limbo while waiting ain’t exactly the way to do it.

But I’m sure the Dems will get things figured out quick and a replacement on the way even quicker.

The politically smart thing for Senate Dems to do would be to dump him now. Maybe they will but he’s digging in so it will take a full court press by Schumer and his Senate colleagues.

Much more of a chance than if a Republican.

Claims of unbalanced use of the justice system would ring out. Just stop doing criminal shit.

Sen. Menendez Plays Race Card, Blames Corruption Indictment on Anti-Latinx Racism​

Here is an excerpt from the public statement released by Menendez, in which he does his best Jussie Smollett impression, via the New Jersey Globe (emphasis added):

For years, forces behind the scenes have repeatedly attempted to silence my voice and dig my political grave. Since this investigation was leaked nearly a year ago, there has been an active smear campaign of anonymous sources and innuendos to create an air of impropriety where none exists.
The excesses of these prosecutors is apparent. They have misrepresented the normal work of a Congressional office. On top of that, not content with making false claims against me, they have attacked my wife for the longstanding friendships she had before she and I even met.
Those behind this campaign simply cannot accept that a first-generation Latino American from humble beginnings could rise to be a U.S. Senator and serve with honor and distinction. Even worse, they see me as an obstacle in the way of their broader political goals.

I didn’t catch any of the Sunday political shows. Which Democratic Senators joined Fetterman in calling for Menendez to resign?

 

[Bray123]

After Santos was busted for lying he was befriended by the usual suspects (as in, sex offenders).


Menendez, not so much.

Bobby's doubling down on the dumb:

Reports say the Democratic senator, who was charged with using his position to corruptly aid Egypt, will refuse to quit in press briefing

And another example of why my Party is a failure. He should have been removed from all committees this morning and censured by the Party. Talk....like they always do...is cheap. People like me want to see them stand for something. Being "not them" is not good enough

I didn’t either, but Durbin had some strong words (but says it’s a Jersey issue) and Melendez isn’t on his committee during all of this.

So unlike your ilk..the grownups are handling things. And look, not a double standard unlike what the MAGA garbage hides behind.

But of course you can read the Jersey stories too.

Updated to add Sens. Brown from Ohio and Welch from Vermont. Even Pelosi said he should resign, but we weren’t talking about House members.

Cory Booker, the junior senator from New Jersey is calling on Menendez to resign.

Well look at that, already more than the GOP cheater has- and his has been how long so far?

So sad how the GOP has no more values except for owning the libs. That isn’t a platform.

Rightfully so.

A new indictment charges Sen. Menendez with being an unregistered agent of the Egyptian government

Federal prosecutors in New York City have rewritten their indictment against U.S. Sen. Bob Menendez of New Jersey and his wife to charge them with conspiring to have him act as an agent of Egypt and Egyptian officials.

Don't you just hate it when you accept gold bars as a bribe...and then you find out they are linked to a robbery that occurred a decade ago? I mean...who can you trust?
