Senator Menendez and his wife got indicted on bribery charges. Any chance he gives up his Senate seat? If not I expect several Dems to get in the 2024 primary.

I’m at a loss
Did the Dems Start raising money and blindly supporting Bob Menendez today after being indicted?
Nope.
Sen. Bob Menendez was indicted on corruption and bribery charges.
His wife was also indicted.
The indictment alleges, Menendez,
"provided sensitive U.S. Government information and took other steps that secretly aided the Government of Egypt”
He was bribed with gold bars.
When the house was searched, they found the gold bars.
They also found.
$480,000 in cash that was stuffed into envelopes hidden in their closets and safe.
Crazy right?
My main takeaway from reading about it on X is.
He should be held accountable for the crime he committed.
Doesn’t matter if he is a Democrat or not.
Does anyone think this is political persecution?
