Schumer Refuses to Call on Sen. Menendez to Step Down: I’ve Had ‘Serious Discussions’ with Him
Breitbart ^ | 10/17/2023 | Pam Key

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) said Tuesday on “CBS This Morning” that he will not publicly urge Sen. Bob Menendez (D-NJ) to resign amid his bribery charges, opting instead for “serious discussions.”

Co-anchor Tony Dokoupil said, “What would it take to move you toward a position of saying ‘You know what, Senator Menendez, please step away?'

Schumer said, “Look, as I’ve said before, the Senate should have certain standards. And if you read the indictments, Senator Menendez has gone way, way below those standards.”

Co-anchor Gayle King said, “So what is your hesitation of asking him to step down?”

Doesn’t matter how corrupt a democrat is, as long as the democrats (Schumer) can maintain the majority, that member won’t be asked to step down.

“These serious discussions were very serious, some of the most serious we have had. I can’t tell you when I have had a more serious discussion”

Actual Jews call out Schumer three times a day in the Birkat HaMinim. May his bones be ground to dust and his name be forever as Haman.

Oh chit. I’ll bet a “serious discussion” with Chucky is hilarious to watch. Menendez got away with it once, he’s gonna do it again. He’s above the law like the rest of you RATS.

I think this serious discussion was Menendez reminding Schumer of the dirt he has on HIM.
