QuoteIn June 2022, federal agents searched Menendez's New Jersey home and found "fruits" of the pair's "corrupt bribery agreement" with the three businessmen, according to the indictment. Investigators found over $480,000 in cash, some stuffed in envelopes and hidden in clothing, as well as $70,000 in Nadine Menendez's safe deposit box.

Also found in the home were over $100,000 worth of gold bars, "provided by either Hana or Daibes," according to the indictment.

QuoteMenendez allegedly gave sensitive U.S. government information "that secretly aided the Government of Egypt" and "improperly advised and pressured" a U.S. agricultural official to protect an exclusive contract for Hana to be the exclusive purveyor of halal meat to Egypt, according to the indictment.

Menendez also tried to disrupt a criminal investigation into a second businessman in the trucking industry that had been undertaken by the New Jersey attorney general, the indictment said.

The senator is also accused of recommending someone to the president to be the U.S. attorney in New Jersey who he thought he could influence.

Yes. Every. Last. One.

As much as It would have sucked to loose the few good people there... therenis so much rot and corruption there, the ONLY way to eliminate it, is death. With any luck some lobbyists would been in there too.

Harsh opinion? Yeah. Things are/were THAT bad.

Allow me the indulgence to tell myself that you're speaking in hyperbole and don't really advocate for the murder of hundreds of unsuspecting people.

With the extensive corruption of gov and the fraudulent state of elections, We will have one of two outcomes. Either a civil war or we are subjects of big gov/ultra wealthy tyranny. My fear is we are at a point where too much of the population will just comply. The younger generation has been indoctrinated since elementary school. They are brainwashed to think gov is their saviors from the ultra elite. The boomers are too afraid of losing their comfortable lives/retirements so they just stick their head in the sand. I don't know whether it will be a year or two, or a decade or two, but our freedoms and rights will be drastically changed. As Jefferson said "The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants".
