Really? Is that what you democrats believe?
He surely knows this.
Just the charade of a trial is enough for most of his colleagues I think.
I dont know. Unless they think Menendez is a special case.
Thoughts on this?
Unless you’re a Republican and esp. Trump.
Tell that to the J6 people in solitary without a trial.
Anyone have a picture of the mansion he lives in on ‘public servant’ pay? Or a picture of IRS agents as they ‘realize ‘ he’s living waaaaaaaay beyond his means?
Didn’t think so.,..
He will be found not guilty..on all counts.
It’s only “guilty until proven innocent” if you are a Republican.
Fight it Bob. Let’s get this really messy.

Mendez is a crook. HOWEVER, he is pro-Isreal, anti-communist, and an Egyptian asset.
SOOooo... why now? Has the DOJ suddenly decided to straighten up and fly right? I doubt it.
My guess is that, given he is pro-Isreal, anti-communist, and an Egyptian asset, he is being thrown under the bus on orders from IRAN as part of Biden’s deal with them.
Menendez in 2019: "If that story is true, then [Trump] telling an individual [Michael Cohen] to lie to Congress, to commit perjury is clearly a felony and is clearly a crime. And in my mind, be part of raising the high crimes and misdemeanors. It’s extraordinary. It’s stunning. And it deserves to get to the bottom of, which is why Special Council Muller’s investigation needs to be protected at every cost. What is it that (Trump) is hiding that he would say to…Michael Cohen ‘do not talk about the Trump Tower in Russia’"
Screw Bob Memendez' presumption that stacks of cash and gold bars hidden his closet have an simple and innocent explanation and he's deserving of the benefit of the doubt.
Did he assume Kavanaugh was innocent? Or Trump?
He is a Bolshekrat, he is guilty.
Ya right - like those hundreds of people in solitary confinement prison for what the FBI was involved with on Jan 6?????
Just like Hunter he’ll get a strongly worded letter of apology.
Innocent until proven guilty is a legal concept, not a social one.
We are entitled to presume anything we like if we are not the judge or jury.
As others have pointed out, if the legal concept doesn’t apply to all, it applies to none.
PS: If memory serves, he had over $400K in cash in his house. If you or I were to have $10K in cash in our home, the IRS (if it knew) would raid our home and confiscate the cash on the premise that we had committed crimes to acquire said cash. Has happened numerous times.
If the sleazeball was not a Democrat, all the news stories would be pointing out 24/7 how he must be dirty hiding that much cash. But for him??
Just in case you doubted there are two separate justice systems.
“”Senate has rules.””
To heck with the Senate - SOCIETY has rules..and we’re expected to follow them.
I can’t wait to hear his explanation of how that much cash got in his closets....
Wonder what Menendez said or did the get Biden to sick the feds on him?.
They're all guilty.
If you're a dim sinator, you're in about the most protected group you'll ever be in.
With the D behind your name, you get innocents even if proven guilty or better yet, innocent and no need for an investigation.
