Not even close to defending this dirtbag who was previous ties to sex trafficking and Epstein level degeneracy; however, given the nature of the Senate Foreign Affairs Committee (SFAC), it does make you wonder why exactly they want to take him down now.
What is going on in the background of the DC deep state, that they would want to take out the New Jersey senator? What’s the other move? Perhaps asking who is in the DNC pipeline from New Jersey, may reveal some context.
Senate Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Bob Menendez was indicted for bribery, corruption and using his position in power to enrich himself through payments by foreign actors. This isn’t the first time his propensity to sell influence for financial gain has surfaced, but this is the one likely to take him out. [Read Indictment Here]
The gold bars are a nice touch.
Menendez has long been known as a deep DC corrupt actor; this is not new. However, the existence of the Senate Foreign Affairs Committee is based on the participants selling U.S. policy and influence for their personal financial gains. New York Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer knew this when he put Menendez into the Chair position. A position formerly held by Joe Biden, who did the same thing as Menendez albeit with a greater level of plausible deniability.
WASHINGTON DC – […] The indictment published Friday accuses Menendez (D-N.J.) and his now-wife Nadine of having a corrupt relationship with three New Jersey businessmen: Wael Hana, Jose Uribe and Fred Daibes. He’s accused of accepting money, a luxury car and lavish gifts in exchange for using his power to help them and the Egyptian government. (read more)
And today is just another Friday; meaning that’s what the SFAC does. Menendez was, perhaps, more conspicuous about it. Perhaps that was the problem.
WASHINGTON DC – […] During a search of the Menendezes’ New Jersey home in June 2022, federal agents probing the alleged scheme found “over $480,000 in cash — much of it stuffed into envelopes and hidden in clothing, closets, and a safe” along with $70,000 in Nadine Menendez’s safe-deposit box, the indictment says.
The indictment — the culmination of years of investigation by federal prosecutors in New York — is the latest legal blow for New Jersey’s senior senator and the powerful chair of the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations. Menendez has survived two previous federal investigations. (read more)
I do not mean to be overly cynical; however, at a certain point you do eventually have to stop the pretending game.
The Senate Foreign Affairs Committee (SFAC) is structurally designed to sell U.S. foreign policy. We all know the game of multinational corporations positioning their investment assets in various countries based on the expectation of U.S. foreign policy to support those investments. It is inside this network of long-established relationships that all of the various quid-pro-quos originate.
The Senate chamber as an institution is where most of the generational level corruption emanates; when the 17th amendment was created, this was the function and purpose for the constitutional change as organized by banking interests. In the decades since inception, the corruption within the upper chamber has become systemic. The Senate became entirely predicated on having greater power within the legislative branch.
Inside this institutional system, each Senate committee has an operational objective in alignment with the interests of the DC business. The Senate is detached from any operational function that would be considered representative of the American voter. The Senate Intel Committee supports the weaponized intelligence state. The Senate Finance and Banking committee supports the interests of big banks, who then reward the committee members. The Senate Judiciary Committee is structured to lean into the corruption needed in the Judicial branch, by controlling appointments and nominations. And so it goes, and so it goes.
Every member on the SFAC uses their position for personal and familial gain. For their specific expertise, the SFAC funding mechanism is by foreign governments and multinational corporations with foreign policy interests. It’s what they do. Menendez is charged with the crime of doing what the Senate Foreign Affairs committee does; participate in bribery and corruption – although the pretending term is “lobbying.”
So, what’s the play? What’s going on in the background that would permit the system to remove Menendez? … and why now?
That’s where the focus should be.
WASHINGTON – […] Allegedly Menendez, starting in mid-2018, privately maintained close relations with Egyptian officials and businesspeople and readily shared sensitive information with his associates about U.S. policy toward Cairo.
In May 2018, Menendez allegedly disclosed to Hana at a private dinner that a U.S. government ban on sales of small arms and ammunition to Egypt has been lifted, which Hana passed on to the Egyptian official.
Later that month, Menendez allegedly ghost-wrote Cairo’s lobbying pitch to other U.S. senators seeking support for the release of $300 million in U.S. aid to Egypt.
In July, after meeting with Egyptian military officials, Menendez allegedly had Nadine tell Hana that he was signing off on the sale of 46,000 120mm target practice rounds and 10,000 rounds of tank ammunition worth $99 million.
“NOTE: These tank rounds are for tanks they have had for many years. They are using these in the Sinai for the counter-terrorism campaign,” Menendez allegedly said in a text to Nadine, which she forwarded to Hana.
The State Department two months later announced it had approved the sale of the package of General Dynamics-made high-explosive and armor-piercing rounds, to help Cairo fight Islamic State militants, and the target rounds, to train M1 Abrams tank crews. (read more)

In my opinion he was lowest hanging fruit, so DOJ can claim see no two tier system of justice! We go after our own too! Because prosecution of PDJT was too obvious to everyday Americans. The only I can’t understand is that Obama went after him too, now again with Biden, wonder why?
There also may be a super-radical waiting in the wings for the seat.
Agree 100%.
Another shiny object to chase after. Throw the public a bone. 🥱 Yawn…
And let’s not forget, Obama raided him after he supported allowing BB to speak to/address congress back in, I think, 2012.
Maybe just another, “hey, the judicial system is balanced” as they try for Trump. I guess they figured Hunter was too small compared to a POTUS so had to go a bit higher. And of course, next stop with the Hunter angle was……….
So, had to get somewhere else. A sort of, “OK, is this enough, so we can get Trump?”
Of course it’s a resounding, NO……not that there would be any true comparable to, ok, can we get Trump now?
Do we think the Senate is more interested in having Corey Booker or Chris Christie on that Committee? I would say both of them have been trying to get into the big money floating around the Senate for quite a while. Okay, there may be another up and coming New Jersey Demcommie who would be preferable to the 4th Branch. Menendez is known to try to threaten people he can’t control, so maybe it is a vendetta coming from that type of behavior. I don’t keep up with New Jersey politics much, so maybe someone from New Jersey could clarify this shenanigans.
If you’re suggesting Chris Christie has a shot at the Senate, you’re dreaming. He’s hated in Jersey, by people of both parties.
Do the voting machines hate him?
He doesn’t have control of those machines.
No one is above the law will be the line of the media for several months using Trump name in some fashion that has nothing to do with it.
Where do I get the FBEYE closet-evidence staging job?
Looks like fun!
Wonder if they went thru wife’s panties 🤔….
I wish THAT would have been staged!
They’ll wind up convicting him of something minor. He’ll have to pay a bunch of the bribery. That’s the main thing – he’ll “lose” a lot of money. This is a message to someone. “See? what we give we can easily take away”. Who – that what we need to find out. It’s a safe seat for the cabal- democrat governor will replace him.
It’s a foil, to cover/deflect from Bidens own corruption. At the same time, it’s also leverage on Biden (not really him, but “Dr.” Jill) to get him out of the way for 2024: “see, we got Menendez, we can get you too”.
But more importantly, it’s revenge from Obama for Menendez’s opposition to the Iran deal. You do not cross TehLightbringer without consequences. Especially in JoeBamas 3rd term.
Not even close to defending this dirtbag who was previous ties to sex trafficking and Epstein level degeneracy; however, given the nature of the Senate Foreign Affairs Committee (SFAC), it does make you wonder why exactly they want to take him down now. Sundance
This was the very first question I had…why now?
Any chance that they are going to start up the food chain and end at Biden?
DC Corruptocrats:
“See, you MAGA rubes, we don’t just go after your precious PDJT and your J6 insurrectionists. We go after one of our own because we are saving democracy. So, shut up about two tiered justice system. Even Ray Epps got charged with a crime!”
👆👆👆
That ‘s deMOCKracy the Dems defend.
Do you think the FBI rifled through Mrs. Menendez’s underwear drawer?
Is it nadine or ned?
That’s where they found the gold bars … that’s where I hid my gold ;..
Nah, I think they were sniffing through his underwear drawer.
There may be a Hunter Biden connection to this Menendez indictment:

What did lindsey know, and when did he know it?
So glad you posted about the 17th Amendment being constructed by, of, and for the banking interests. Kudos!
Federal Reserve Act – created at the same time for private (and foreign) banking interests. Take away control of Congress and Treasury.
16th Amendment – created at the same time to create an income tax on the citizens to fund (repay / rob) for ‘their’ machinations.
Speculation (only) on Menendez:
Was he not diverting others’ cuts out of his piece of the revenue pie (kickbacks) as agreed and this is revenge?
Was he taking more than he was supposed or authorized to take?
Was he not supposed to have gold bullion (shades of FDR confiscation for the Banksters)?
🤷
Black, I posted before I read your comment and said the same thing with fewer words…maybe Mendez just didn’t give someone their “10%” and was trying to keep it all for himself.
The gold bars was a nice touch to tangle up the preppers, libertarian, RonPaul, LewRockwell, paleo-conservative, crowds into this facade.
What would be sweet on this one would be if Menendez centers his defense around “gifts to my wife don’t qualify as bribery involving me.” Then we can juxtapose with the Biden Enterprise.
Reading this makes me so angry. The problem is what to do about it, and how can DJT tackle this monstrous construct! There are not enough “honest people with integrity” in the system at this point. I feel like we are living in a Ray Bradbury novel. Time to rewatch F 451 again.
💩 like this always happens on a Friday. 𝐀𝐋𝐖𝐀𝐘𝐒 🤷♀️
Menendez is corrupt as hell, but he has been around the block a few times. $460k Cash hidden in jacket pockets in his closet? Seems a bit off that he would be that stupid. If he starts claiming to not know how the money got there, I would probably be inclined to believe him over the FBI.
It was just “pocket money” as the saying goes …
I’ll never be selected for a jury. I would throw out any FIB testimony or evidence. I’m honest and would tell them that from the start.
Bug out / bolt money.
DC does not eat its own without cause.
Sometimes the cause is stupid, like taking out that clown because he too a photo pretending to grope some sleeping lady on an aircraft.
But this is starting to feel like a vendetta. A milder version of Get Trump!
oh no, Graham vouched that Menendez was a ‘good person’. SOB they got him. Good riddance.
I seriously doubt that Graham would survive a determined investigation into HIS finances.
The ONLY time the Government Party polices its ranks is when the person risks exposing the Government Party to sunlight. Between Biden and Mendez, the influence peddling is starting to escape into the public consciousness.
Remember when the FBI fired the agent who both had Hunter’s laptop and pushed the false Russian-disinformation lie? Fired and disappeared.
They only police their ranks to avoid exposure. Then they claim it was a lone wolf who acted alone and the media hurls the story into the void.
Plenty of corrupt NJ plutocrats who can step in for a lifetime Lordship appointment to the Senate.
Sounds to me like it’s house cleaning time. As chair of the foreign affairs committee he’s bound to be butt-hole deep in whatever the Biden Crime Syndicate, and all the others, have been up to in Ukraine. So, where Biden is in the process of being escorted out the back door, after a “thorough” investigation it’s been determined Menendez needs to go too.
So that’s why the threat of taking non-compliant Congress members off committees is powerful. Thanks for making it all make sense!
What are they distracting us from?
If Menendez is under indictment would that preclude him from being called to testify in any FJB impeachment inquiry?
Chair position: “A position formerly held by Joe Biden, who did the same thing as Menendez albeit with a greater level of plausible deniability.” – SD
Or just get him out of the way due to his knowledge of FJB’s dirt. ?
Bob quipped to his wife, ‘I told you to bury the gold in the flower bed out back.
Didn’t Menendez used to go with Bubba Clinton to Haiti and molest young Haitian girls?

Bob teamed up with an ophthamologist in Florida and flew to Puerto Rico and Dominican Republic for underage prostitutes every so often. They were caught and the Doctor was convicted but a DC jury left Menendez off.
Having gold bars and cash in your house is not against the law but the innuendo is an express example of how the DOJ can frame the guilt of anybody they want to target.
Johnathan Turley was on Fox News this morning with the “Got” him evidence…Menendez’ fingerprints were on the gold bars and cash!
I bet my fingerprints are on the money in my wallet! LOL
So, has Chelsea Clinton moved to New Jersey recently???
It is only evidence if it ties to a crime – like matching serial numbers or dye from a pay off/sting.
I’m sure the mendacious Menendez has the capacity to have physical cash like this “legitimately” i.e. historical withdrawals and transactions sufficient to cover an accumulation over the last 1-20 years. Although likely too lazy.
You are RIGHT!!!! The blue dye would have been epic!!! Or receipts for Cayman accounts!
I remember when the police used to test the cash found on an arrestee and, if there were drugs (mainly cocaine) found on the bills then they would charge them with drug possession/use. This was back in the day when tons of people used a rolled up bill to snort their cocaine.
Thankfully, enough defense attorneys were able to fight back on that BS.
Alas, the frame-job photographs. They are not ‘strewn’ enough.
Is it possible a female agent laid those out? Or am I being transphobic? Maybe a tranny FBI agent was responsible?
The photos are hilarious!!!! Never seen a photoshoot more idiotic!
They really should have been edgier!!!! You know…crumpled? Like…
Comer should be saying, as all GOP should, “If you think MENENDEZ is bad, wait til you see JOE BIDEN REVEALED.”
amen, small timer to old Joe
Where’s the GOP in going after the people who put Menendez on the Foreign Relation Committee.
The Menendez indictment is a calculated feint to give the appearance of equal Justice. In reality, a party whose foundational reason for existence is grift, could care less if this scumbag was accepting a few gold bars for a few favors. And his replacement will be much worse. Birds of a feather …
DC is a guano island as for grift and birds of a feather
Sin City 2.
Damn sad state we’re in when you have ask what the motive is behind indicting a corrupt politician, with evidence.
…”bribery, corruption and using his position in power to enrich himself through payments by foreign actors.” Isn’t this the first line in the Job Description for Member of the U.S. Senate?
That quote you wrote is the synopsis of Biden’s life, leaving out the more sordid parts.
repeal the 17th amendment
Maybe they want to demote Chuckie Schumer for some reason, embarrass him, since it was he who put Menendez in the Chair.
This danged moop has been indicted at least two other times and escaped justice before. He was crooked when he was born. I have ZERO expectations with any action on this.
whatever action is for whatever internal Deep State purpose(s) that doesn’t correspond to citizens’ needs and expectations
Other than scale, Mnmendez’s crimes and corruption are identical to those of the Biden Syndicate. Yet Menendez is charged, and the Bidens skate. Very odd, ain’t it.
competing factions/retaliation/chaos/crisis/smoke theory sounds good to me
The Senate is detached from any operational function that would be considered representative of the American voter. The Senate Intel Committee supports the weaponized intelligence state. The Senate Finance and Banking committee supports the interests of big banks, who then reward the committee members. The Senate Judiciary Committee is structured to lean into the corruption needed in the Judicial branch, by controlling appointments and nominations. And so it goes, and so it goes.
LOL! So, how many decades of actually informed voters who actually know this who will somehow miraculously appear from our dumbed down society will it take to change that?
Here’s my take and it’s a best case scenario of what would happen after the required total collapse considering the mass formation psychosis just experienced with that COVID thing:
Only a Collapse and Total Reboot Can Fix Our Bloated Government System

https://pjmedia.com/news-and-politics/tony-corvo/2016/11/14/only-a-collapse-and-total-reboot-can-fix-our-bloated-government-system-n48938
Excerpt:
Conservatives keep voting for candidates thinking that they will fix the bugs, but let’s look at what this approach would take. In one form or another we will have to:
1) Elect at least a generation of conservative supermajorities in both chambers of congress. They have to be supermajorities because parliamentary rules allow for political minority actions to stop simple majority legislation.
2) We will have to elect a string of conservative presidents to work with the conservative congresses. We can’t have activist presidents who govern by executive actions in order to bypass congress.
3) True constitutionalists must be nominated and approved to the Supreme Court.
4) Conservatives will have to control at least 37 state legislatures, because sooner or later we will need to make constitutional amendments.
massive firings, and dissolution of criminal and unconstitutionally run agencies
then trials for criminals

If you tow the party line, you can committ any crime…
But ho against the regime and they will indict you.
they will remove you, one way or another
“over $480,000 in cash — much of it stuffed into envelopes and hidden in clothing….”
Say WHAT? Why would anyone leave any amount of cash in clothing?
bug out money
Maybe it just comes down to the simple fact: Mendez didn’t give someone their 10%. Who that is, well, there’s a few to pick from.
Occam’s Razor.
I think this is personal. They tried to convict him once before and he was acquitted and then that didn’t destroy him unlike Senator Stevens of Alaska. I trust nothing coming from the DOJ/FBI. Seems to me their goal is never justice and that goes for all DOJ US Attorneys.
We have such a corrupt federal law enforcement now you can’t trust their actions on anything even when it appears to make a semblance of sense.
foul ups
Maybe as more of these corrupt self-dealing democrats get found out, exposed, charged, tried, convicted, and sentenced, we will start seeing a higher caliber of political candidate. But until then, we have the pelosis, menendez et al.
You are a dreamer. New Jersey would just replace Mendenez with another like him. If this is indeed a move to reduce the Clinton influence in the party then expect the replacement skudz to be oriented toward Obama.
Could it be that menendez had a bout of conscience and drew a line that the ds didn’t like?
Keep an eye on who takes his place on the SFAC, and specifically his or her ties to various despots overseas.
Folks, this is another giant squirrel.

Why are these people so timid when answering the question? It’s live, make the reporter eat his stupid ass questions.
a dozen ways to retaliate, prior “KGB” attacks on Trump/supporters, a little something for our files….
Perhaps if we ever get serious about term limits this criminal behavior might end.
Menendez has been in congress since 2006…they become entitled, like royalty….
Term limit these criminals….TWO TERMS for senator, TWO for Representative and anything else that holds elected office
If it is good enough for the POTUS, then it should be imposed on every other elected office.
I’d like to see 12 years max – any mix of Senate, House, Presidential Cabinet appointments and SES people – just so long long as any one person is not sucking up DC air for more than 12 years total.
Term limits are good if there are no pensions.
Yep, but it does take a Constitutional Amendment.
I don’t term limits, I want long terms, like 30 years to life, for all of them.
Why are we paying taxes again?
Question: How good of friends are Phil Murphy and Crispy Cream Christie? Nice Senate seat ya got there, Menendez; be a shame if you had to be replaced
