FTA: "Mr. Menendez stands accused of using his position to advance the interests of Dr. Salomon Melgen, a friend and political patron, in exchange for luxury vacations and hundreds of thousands of dollars of campaign support."

Oh pretty please....

If anyone believes this trial will be over before the 2018 elections they are smoking something besides tobacco.

Torricelli doesn’t give a rats rump about him. He’s worried about the SEAT and that’s the extent of it.

And, yes...they probably WILL drag this out and drag this out and drag this out. Grrrr!

The Dims would probably find a judge who’d order that Bob Torricelli be sworn in to finish Menendez’s term.

“Many of us have a personal concern about Bob Menendez,” said Robert G. Torricelli, a former Democratic senator of New Jersey.

And they go to The Torch, another crook, for a quote? Ha ha ha.

Of course they don’t say that those “luxury vacations” were trips that Menendez made to abuse underage girls. Who knows, maybe boys, too. That he is still in the senate shows just how far this country has fallen.
