Sounds like the case against him is strong. He needs to resign, and I'll call for that resignation. If he won't, he should be stripped of all Committee assignments.
We shouldn't support crooks in the Democratic Party. After all, we aren't Republicans.

Re: Sen. Mendendez Indicted
I agree Gou no one is above the law including the Dems thankfully Phil Murphy is the Governor & he can appoint any dem for that seat if Bob resigns.

Re: Sen. Mendendez Indicted
Never did defend Menendez. Please, show me where. I've never said he was innocent, and I've said over and over he's under investigation, and we'll see. Now that they've came out with it, the case seems pretty strong - get him out of there.
Of course, you defend all the corruption in your party.
Especially that of America's Deadbeat, Rudy Giuliani.
Re: Sen. Mendendez Indicted
gounion, myself, and others have, for years, said if Menendez is guilty then he should accept the consequences.
When you vote left, you vote right.

Worked that time and there are literally dozens of times when you have defended him.

Re: Sen. Mendendez Indicted
I wasn't defending him, just pointing out facts. He was indicted, then had a hung jury, and the Justice Department decided to let it go and not try him again.Glennfs wrote: ↑Fri Sep 22, 2023 5:39 pm I am not good at cutting and pasting on this site but here is an attempt

I guess you're only innocent until proven guilty if you're a Republican, right Glenn?
I looked at the evidence here, the case is very strong, and he should resign immediately. If he doesn't, he should be removed from all committees.
Something you'll NEVER say about Republicans.
Like when YOUR Congressman demanded the President piss on the Constitution and declare Martial Law.
Re: Sen. Mendendez Indicted
Something you’ll NEVER see from a Republican: https://www.cnbc.com/2023/09/22/new-jer ... m=menendez
New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy, the state’s General Assembly speaker and the Democratic State Committee chairman all called on U.S. Sen. Bob Menendez to resign Friday after their fellow Democrat was indicted on federal bribery charges.
Re: Sen. Mendendez Indicted
There was just as much evidence of he being corrupt from the previous charges.gounion wrote: ↑Fri Sep 22, 2023 6:21 pm Something you’ll NEVER see from a Republican: https://www.cnbc.com/2023/09/22/new-jer ... m=menendez
Not only did your party make him the chairman of a powerful committee. They had their lapdog on the NJSC ignore the law in order to prevent a republican from winning that seat.
Again climb down off the cross

And at no time did I say he was innocent, nor did I call out the investigations, like you guys did on Trump.
Every time a Republican gets investigated, it’s “weaponizing the DoJ” and “defund the DoJ and FBI”.
You guys go after the investigators, the prosecutors and the judges. How many time have you went after Fain Willis?
What you’re doing, Glenn, is projecting. We don’t defend crooks, Glenn. That’s what YOU do.

As for Fani Willis nice attempted deflection

Re: Sen. Mendendez Indicted
Never denied his guilt. Told the FACTS. He had a hung jury, and the DoJ decided not to go to trial again.
If that were a Republican, you'd say that exonerated them. I did not. NEVER denied his guilt. Just another GlennLie.
And no deflection. You attack investigators, prosecutors and judges. Are you PROUD to defend you Dear Leader like that?

Glenn, you guys are PROUD of corrupt Republicans.
Did any national GOP rep call for Texas AG Ken Paxton to resign? Oh, hell no!A growing number of Democrats said Friday that Sen. Bob Menendez (D-N.J.) needs to resign in the aftermath of being indicted on federal corruption charges.
Hours after the news broke, Rep. Dean Phillips of Minnesota was the first Democratic lawmaker to call on the New Jersey senator to go.

“I’m appalled,” he said in a CNN interview. “And yes, I think he should resign.”
Asked if he thinks Senate Democratic leaders should push Menendez to leave office, Phillips replied, “Yes. The answer is absolutely.”
It wasn’t long after that that the dam started to break.
“As both a leader in the Democratic Party & the former Attorney General and given the nature of the charges, I call upon Senator Menendez to resign,” former U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder tweeted. “The nation will be better served if he steps aside and allows a transition to occur that will best serve the people of New Jersey.”
“I don’t have confidence that the Senator has the ability to properly focus on our state and its people while addressing such a significant legal matter,” Rep. Andy Kim (D-N.J.) told The New Jersey Globe. “He should step down.”
Rep. Mikie Sherrill, also a New Jersey Democrat, tweeted that it is “a sad day” for her state and that “it’s in the best interest of our state that Senator Menendez resign.”
Then, the doozy: New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy, New Jersey Assembly Speaker Craig Coughlin and New Jersey Democratic Chair LeRoy Jones ― all Democrats ― issued statements calling on Menendez to resign.
“The alleged facts are so serious that they compromise the ability of Senator Menendez to effectively represent the people of our state,” Murphy said in a statement. “Therefore, I am calling for his immediate resignation.”
Glenn, you guys are PROUD of corrupt Republicans.

Re: Sen. Mendendez Indicted
I don't know but I suspect he probably had some dirt on people.
But you go ahead and defend him as always.

Re: Sen. Mendendez Indicted
The only hatred displayed here comes from the left.
If you didn't believe that Menendez was corrupt and guilty before these latest charges it would be because you are 100pct partisan.
But go ahead and keep defending him

Re: Sen. Mendendez Indicted
Not defending him. But he was not convicted the first time. That’s just the truth.
But to you Republicans are always innocent and Democrats are always guilty.

Rep. Andy Kim to challenge Sen. Menendez in 2024 after bribery charges
Rep. Andy Kim (D-N.J.) on Saturday announced plans to run against embattled Sen. Bob Menendez (D-N.J.) in 2024.
Why it matters: Menendez is facing deep political peril and mounting calls to resign from fellow Democrats in Congress and his home state after he was indicted on federal bribery charges on Friday.

Re: Sen. Mendendez Indicted
How many Republicans have called to have George Santos resign?
About the same number that have called for Menendez to resign. Looks like they are good with corruption.
Re: Sen. Mendendez Indicted
If Menendez was going to be replaced with a republican you and every other Democrat would be singing a different story.

Bullshit.

And why won’t anyone on the right demand George Santos resign?
