Anymore, when 'Democrat' and 'indicted' are used in the same article, the first question that comes to mind is: what footstep off the party plantation are they being punished for?

As far as the bolded, assuming the lawyer was telling the truth, the default should be: "they're lying to you"

[GreyFriar]

I think Cuellar may have called for stopping illegals from crossing the Texas-Mexico border.

[HandBasketHell]

This is the Democrat whose district is being overrun by illegals, so he publicly said something about it, and now the rabid DOJ is coming after him.

He will be the 'proof' that leftists cite to claim they are impartial when it comes to the carriage of justice, which we all know is a crock.

[reasonisfaith]

There are good and discreetly active people in DOJ, DHS and others.

Some of these cases have to do with 2020 election interference.

Nothing can stop what’s coming.

The cabal has reason to be afraid.

[PermaRag]

Cuellar long ago was (falsely) considered to be a conservative Democrat, who was occasionally invited to switch parties. He currently represents a district which runs from the San Antonio suburbs down to Laredo:

2022 election results for TX district 28

Cuellar long ago stopped being even a moderate and is a 90% liberal, which still qualifies him as being slightly more sane than most of his Rat colleagues.

In 2022, he came very close to losing a primary to a complete racist nutbucket named Jessica Cisneros. Had that happened, the GOP would have had an excellent chance to pick up the seat. Cuellar had no primary challenger at all in 2024.

Why the hyper-partisan Democrat DOJ would suddenly target him now, when he's fairly safe and is a good little plantation liberal again, is somewhat mysterious. Probably all for show, and they can make a big deal of exonerating him well before November. Our hero!

As of now, the GOP is making no effort whatsoever to oust Cuellar this year; he'll be safely re-elected unless there really is something very substantial to these charges (in which case the Rats will undoubtedly try to do a "Torricelli" here).

[PeterPrinciple]

No information on what the indictment is for that I could find.

[Bonemaker]

Henry sided with the good guys on the border disaster.

[Steven Scharf]

Texas has already held their primary and the Republicans have a runoff on May 28, 2024. It will be an uphill battle for the winner, but this indictment will help them.

He also voted against the assault weapon ban. Between those two things, thar was enough for Garland to launch a search for something to charge him with.

[BobL]

Sounds like the Democrats feel they can find a BETTER Democrat to replacement him with.
