More than half of Senate Democrats are calling on Sen. Bob Menendez (D-N.J.) to resign after he was indicted on explosive federal bribery charges last week.
More than half of Senate Democrats are calling on Sen. Bob Menendez (D-N.J.) to resign after he was indicted on explosive federal bribery charges last week.
The last time he was indicted the case was weak, which is why the jury hung at 10 for acquittal and 2 for conviction and then the prosecution dropped the charges rather than refiling. This case is not weak and the details in the indictment, especially the communications they included, are impossible to ignore. Not all cases are equal.
He was guilty then just got away with it. They still should called him out and damn sure the DNC shouldn’t have continued supporting him.
Think about all the laws and rules he effected since then how much money did he take in actual bribes?
It appears you have forgotten that whole innocent before proven guilty concept your court system uses?
