Breaking: Sen. Bob Menendez indicted on federal bribery charges-Second Round. UPDATE: GUILTY ON ALL COUNTS!

[Professor Emeritus]

And this why people leave the party and become independent.

I think the reason for Schumer's comment is b/c they dont have to worry about Menendez seat turning red. So he can pretend about innocent until proven guilty crap...this is the duumbass second indictment



dont be surprised when a MAGA populist candidate pops up out of nowhere and wins that seat...instead of you doing the right thing NOW

Democrat leadership cares more about power than any particular policy goal and it's openly transparent. None of their Menendez calculations have anything to do with their ethical ideals of "what is the right thing to do?" They're solely thinking about how it impacts their own power and ability to wield it going forward.

Idk why NJ kept re-electing him all these years he's had cases hanging over him for what feels like forever

Voting blue no matter who. If he won't leave this dude better be primaried.

Politicians are all corrupt, this dude got caught who knows what else those in power do for monetary gain.

The wheel chaired fascist dude from NC said that all those republican politicians rountinely engaged in drug fueled orgies and they got him out the paint quickly. He wasn't lying probably.

For those who watched the Spartacus series, remember how debauch and corrupt they made the elites seem in that series? I wouldn't be surprised if our politicians are exactly like that. Corruption has already rotted this government.

It does and doesn't seem shocking how LOW these people were doing these kinds of favors for. A 60,000 benz on a lease? To essentially buy a senator, for at least one or three areas of value?

That's like how Tony Soprano was doing those councilmen in the show. She is just horribly tacky and desperate. He is clearly used to this kind of thing.

15k in an envelope for the down payment? To improperly weigh in a US Attorney nomination? Leaning on a US Attorney and some other AG guy?

 

[re'up]

you catch the Southern District prosecutors wrote

Nadine Arselaian, Mendendez, who prior to meeting the senator was unemployed

lol

poltiically the smart move is to get him out, and get someone else in. Why stand behind him? A politically cynical move, sure, but than you have some credibility plus a democrat in the seat.

but thats the thing...Democrats do not like to wield power

That talking point has always been nonsense. They love power, they just don't want to use it for the things that you want to use it for. They wield power in every way that allows them to continue to maintain their personal positions of power going forward.


There's no reason to try to explain their behavior with some sort of weird theory that doesn't even make sense, when you can explain it much easier with naked self-interest.

Nadine Arselaian, Mendendez, who prior to meeting the senator was unemployed

She was probably putting in an application at IHOP when he walked in. She thinkin' how can I make this work for me....?

 

[Reality Check]

Schumer has needed to be replaced for years.
