New Jersey. Except for a four-month-long Republican appointment, NJ senators have been Ds since 1982.

Why haven’t they filed for Civil Asset Forfeiture yet?? It appears that all his assets are fruits of a Criminal Enterprise.

He’ll get even more “votes” in his next reelection race than he did in the last one. Bet on it.

Finally.

How damning must the evidence be that Biden's DOJ was forced to bring charges?

He’s been doing this for a long time. Likes his expensive presents and trips with rich men indeed of a favor.

Never stuck to him before, toomany Jerseyans keep pushing the D button.

Who among us hasn’t just had $480,000 in cash stuffed in the closet and in various items of clothing?

Indicted a Senator, I’d say that’s a good start. There’s plenty more in both houses to indict next.

Maybe GOP voters could begin the process of looking for an electable candidate in New Jersey and pick up that Senate seat!

LOL!! JK. That will never happen.

I have a different take. Since they are all on the take, and he is a Democrat, what egregious offense has he committed against the Ruling Class (Obama) that resulted in him actually being indicted?

Menendez refused to share the judges he owns with the other members of the five families. It was caught on tape:

Mostly just drug dealers.

I remember reading the book about George Jung. He was one of the first major US cocaine trafficers to bring in Pablo Escobar’s product. His true life endeavors were portrayed by Johnny Depp in the movie “Blow”.

He was just a normal guy from the suburbs of Boston. So when he got rich he bought a house in Truro out on Cape Cod. The problem was he had so much cash he literally didn’t know what to do with it. So he started taking the drywall off the interior walls of his house and stacking the cash in between the studs. Then putting drywall back over it.
