Democratic Sen. Bob Menendez of New Jersey has been indicted on bribery charges.

Federal agents found cash "stuffed into envelopes and hidden in clothing" in his home.

This is the second time Menendez has been charged with bribery.

Federal agents found more than $480,000 in cash hidden in Democratic Sen. Bob Menendez's home, according to the newly-unsealed indictment against the New Jersey senator.

Menendez is facing bribery charges for the second time in six years.

According to the indictment, federal agents executed search warrants on the New Jersey senator's home in June 2022, where they found the "fruits" of the bribery agreement that Menendez and his wife, Nadine, had allegedly made with three New Jersey businessmen.

That included more than $480,000 in cash that was "stuffed into envelopes and hidden in clothing, closets, and a safe."

The indictment alleges that the fingerprints of one of the businessmen were found on some of the envelopes, and that some of the envelopes were "found inside jackets" emblazoned with Menendez's name.

#2: "What did he do to piss-off the deep-state and the DOJ?"

The Deep State wants to fill his seat with a Negro. Menendez is too white, a liberal "white Cuban Hispanic". I love it when they eat their own!

Menendez was emboldened by the 2015 outcome of his last case.

He thought he was in the clear, and that justice would not dare to pursue him again. But, democrats were/are willing to let him go, since in NJ, they can easily have any other democrat win that seat.

No doubt he’ll be reelected or simply retire wealthy off fat government pensions.

Bob should have just claimed the cash belonged to Brandon and Hunter. The agents would helped him with hiding and keeping the cash safe.

A couple of decades ago there was a Democrapt congress critter who kept his money from bribery in his deep freezer.

This is a warning to what happens when you don't pony up 10% to the "big guy".

Let’s be honest, they would’ve found much more at the Biden Mansions, but they refused to raid. Hunter collects Diamonds, for one.

How much of it did they plant there? I don’t doubt them finding it. I am not even going to argue they found it.
