Convicted felon and former New Jersey Sen. Bob Menendez fought back tears while describing his legacy as one of “breaking down barriers,” denying that it entailed breaking laws as well.
Despite his 16-count conviction last month for trading the power of his office for lucrative bribes, an emotional Menendez claimed he will leave behind a “good legacy.”
“My legacy is one of breaking down barriers,” Menendez told Spanish-American language broadcaster Noticias Univision, per a translation.
“A legacy is planting seeds to create a tree where you won’t sit under it. That’s a legacy. And in that sense, we have sown and planted so many seeds, which I know is a good legacy.”

Thank you very much and God bless you.
Well, now he can break down the bars of his cell.
Sure, Bob. Sure.
Too bad for him he crossed Obama by voting against the Iran ‘deal’. Otherwise, the deep state would have never brought charges and he could grift and cheat all he wanted - consequence free like Joey.
Breaking down those barriers to unethical behavior and bribery, perhaps. Justice too long delayed.
His legacy is being a typical corrrupt elected official, he’s a dime a dozen.
“My legacy is one of breaking down barriers,”
NO.......TRY AGAIN
That’s true.
My legacy is one of breaking down the barriers and limitations of my Senate Salary and expanding it through Grift and corruption.
Correct.
"A gold bar in every coat lining"
No. His legacy is that of a corrupt, taxpayer $$ stealing pedophile. Nice job there NJ voters. A**holes.
This took way too long. We’ve all known he was super corrupt for a few decades.
Yeah, Bob, you're a great American hero. This Bud Light's for you.
Unless you planted those seeds in Fort Dix FCI or Fairton FCI, you won't be sitting under it, Bob.
His ‘legacy’ is stuffing gold bars in his pockets..................
CRY me a RIVER. YOU TOOK BRIBES. THAT is your legacy
Looks like he can’t get a confirmation from the demented Biden that he is on the pardon list.
Around 75% down is where most of the ‘meat’ is:
Ex-Senator Menendez’ legacy, his deepest mental and spiritual makeup, is one of utter impunity.
Years ago, at the start of his political career, he allied himself with birds of the same impunitious feather.
Having enjoyed and employed his impunity for so many decades now, he eventually concluded that his personal impunity extended to not being punished for failing to support wholeheartedly and unquestioningly every jot and tittle of the Donkey Party’s blatantly
communist legislative, executive and social agendas as they respectively change, morph and inexplicably (to outsiders) wend their way through political space time.
It appears he was wrong!
Easy.
