More than half of Senate Democrats are calling on Sen. Bob Menendez (D-N.J.) to resign after he was indicted on explosive federal bribery charges last week.

    Only during campaigning do you call for this. Notice how last time he was indicated I never heard about it. They only doing this now because if they don’t makes Biden look bad.

      His first indictment was 8 years ago which is why you probably don’t remember it, and the grand jury investigation started 10 years ago. It was in the news for years off and on until the judge dismissed everything outright.

      You not hearing about it is a you issue.

      The last time he was indicted the case was weak, which is why the jury hung at 10 for acquittal and 2 for conviction and then the prosecution dropped the charges rather than refiling. This case is not weak and the details in the indictment, especially the communications they included, are impossible to ignore. Not all cases are equal.

        He was guilty then just got away with it. They still should called him out and damn sure the DNC shouldn’t have continued supporting him.

        Think about all the laws and rules he effected since then how much money did he take in actual bribes?

          It appears you have forgotten that whole innocent before proven guilty concept your court system uses?

      If you didn’t hear about his indictment that’s a sign you weren’t paying any attention not that it wasn’t in the news. Had you bothered to search for it you would find it was extensively covered.
