The Senate Ethics Committee has “severely admonished” Sen. Robert Menendez for improperly accepting gifts from South Florida ophthalmologist Salomon Melgen.

In a letter, the Ethics panel directed the Democrat from New Jersey to pay for all improper gifts that have not already been reimbursed. The panel of three Democrats and three Republicans noted that some reimbursement had already been made.

That sternly written note means nothing.
Just another object to for a spoiled Liberal to ignore w/o consequence.

I bet his wrists really sting from the thrashing he received for his crimes, much like Hillary did.

It probably isn’t.

I live in NJ.

Menendez wins reelection by 10-15 points. The NJ GOP is moribund.

His opponent Bob Hugin is a good man, but a pharma executive can’t win NJ.

Still in office and making $174,000 a year. All the power and money mean nothing if he has to live with a severe admonishment.

When the rule of law fails, the second amendment kicks in in some countries.

Let’s pray that more miracles like Trump happen and the rule of law prevails.

They gave him a stern talking to! If he does it again, they may take drastic action, like suspending his Netflix account for a week.

Sort of like Obama did with North Korea.
