In December, Democratic Senator Bob Menendez blasted the Obama administration for the historic bad deal they reached with the Castro regime in Cuba.
Senator Bob Menendez was also a top critic of Barack Obama’s foolish Iranian nuclear deal.
This week Senate Foreign Relations Committee Ranking Member Bob Menendez (D-NJ) spoke about the U.S.-Israel relationship and said that he was not intimidated by anyone, including Israeli’s political enemies or his political friends, when he feels they are wrong.
Today the Obama Department of Justice charged Senator Bob Menendez with corruption. CNN reported:
The Justice Department is preparing to bring criminal corruption charges against New Jersey Sen. Robert Menendez, a Democrat, alleging he used his Senate office to push the business interests of a Democratic donor and friend in exchange for gifts.
People briefed on the case say Attorney General Eric Holder has signed off on prosecutors’ request to proceed with charges, CNN has learned exclusively. An announcement could come within weeks. Prosecutors are under pressure in part because of the statute of limitation on some of the allegations.
The case could pose a high-profile test of the Justice Department’s ability to prosecute sitting lawmakers, having already spawned a legal battle over whether key evidence the government has gathered is protected by the Constitution’s Speech and Debate clause.
The FBI and prosecutors from the Justice Department’s public integrity section, have pursued a variety of allegations against Menendez, who has called the probe part of “smear campaign” against him.

That will teach other Democrats what happens if you dare to cross Our Glorious Leader.
If Obama keeps kicking over cans of worms,
he might find that some of those cans
have HIS worms in them...
I hope this is the start of a democrat civil war. Communists/Lilly Whites vs. what’s left of blue collar moderate democrats.
But, on the other hand, Menendez is a rabid supporter of banning sport utility rifles and their magazines. Good riddance.
This may explain why the left wants to dispose of Christy so bad, He appoints the replacement.
Maybe Menendez knew a few months ago this was coming down and wanted to get his LICKS in on obummer before the check cleared the bank-(DOJ).
I guess that he didn’t get the message over the Dominican Kiddy Hookers back in ‘13.
What took so long?
Despots are not amused when you dare question them.....
The rats are gnawing on their own.
Which one is it... they charged him today, or they are preparing to charge him later?
He doesn’t have the nerve to assassinate his enemies yet, but he has ways...the corruption continues to astound.
That’s why His Arrogance is not preparing any backup plan for the possible loss at the Supreme Court on the CommieCare lawsuit for the subsidies. Roberts will use some creative Common Core Progressive reading and interpretive skills to say that the law was “intended” to support Social Justice and that the law will stand (4-5).
Yet they miss Hillary Clinton $20 billion dollar goldmine in Haiti along with a missing $6+ billion in taxpayer funds.
The “funny” part is that EVERY Dem has a similar vulnerability.
Perhaps, even “our” own Majority Leaders?
Welcome to the GOP, Bob!
