    This is ABSURD! Why didn’t he just call this FAKE NEWS and a WITCH HUNT? Why not just say he’s actually a REPUBLICAN? THEN he would have been found INNOCENT and gotten MILLIONS in DONATIONS from People Who Do Their Own Research!

      Yeah why is this corruption punished yet corruption of supreme court judges is A-fucking-okay and a man literally made of corruption is running for president?

      It sure does seem like republicans are just immune from being punished for their corruption.

    Menendez will either resign or be ousted by the Senate. Either way, the Democratic Governor will appoint a successor; perhaps the current Democratic nominee for the position, Rep. Andy Kim

    appointing Kim would create a House vacancy that wouldn’t be filled before the election. Not sure the math of that in the House matters between now and then, but it would be at least a consideration

    Now contrast that with Trump’s cases being dismissed by corrupt judges. Where are the “both sides” crowd when you need them?
