It sure appears to me that Senator Menendez has a conflict of interest in this matter and should excuse himself from dropping names he thinks are suitable replacements for the UAE.

Maher Terminals is Canadian.

We need a USA company to do our ports!

I hope an Arab-American company buys the MANAGMENT CONTRACTS of SOME TERMINALS in the PORTS...just like DPW was going to do. I'll laugh my ARSE off.

For a little more "follow the money" take a look at this. Check out this interesting read on the future of the world wide shipping industry. BTW, did you know that the NY/NJ Port Authority several years ago negotiated a deal with another terminal operator promising to make them the major terminal operation at their installation? It appears the Port Authority and perhaps several politicians have been bought and paid for.

Think HALLIBURTON to run the ports. Schumer has already said he would be favorable to them running it(fox news).

Talk about the DU heads exploding, it would be hilarious.

Senator Menendez has been dropping Maher Terminals as a suitable replacement for the UAE on the ports deal.

The UAE get to choose who get the terminals most probably the company that has the most money. Menendez can suggest but he must suggest to DPW and I don't think DPW is taking his calls.
