Did a search and didn't find this elsewhere. Mods, feel free to move or combine, as appropriate.

Now if they would just indict the other 534 members of congress we'd have some progress.

 

[ModernGunner]

Well, let's start with the 'easy' ones first: Menedez, Reid, Pelosi, Rangel, Holder, both Clintons, and the Liar-In-Chief.

 

[Thor]

we'd get some results.

FIFY

Please...no more progress...

 

[Thor]

I believe Bob was indicted because he disagreed with the O's Iran policy (and he's also a lying thieving POS), how dare he confront the one. It's not like there aren't plenty of other crooks that the Dept. of Injustice could be focusing on in the misadministration.

 

[Tactically Fat]

Only another 99 senators to investigate!

Delay, continuences, no resignation, deflect

Hillary's DOJ will drop charges for lack of evidence

 

[Leadeye]

Senator Bob Menendez of NJ charged with accepting bribes, a search of his house turns up gold bars and 500K in cash.

Wonder if he will do any time?

 

[natdscott]

No. All the cash and bars will end up in various "evidence lockers" around...someplace.

He will either unalive himself, or get off with a moderate fine.

 

[singlesix]

Is he a Democrat?

 

[Leadeye]

Is he a Democrat?

Yes he is. Probably should have formed a "global initiative" foundation rather than just taking the cash, but they think differently in Tony Soprano land.

On its face, I say "so?"

I had no idea maintaining physical financial assets means you are guilty, or that those assets are automatically nefarious.

How many here have significant stockpiles of fiancial assets stashed for the unthinkable? Are you guilty of illegal acts or corruption simply because you have some cash and precious metals too? /rhetorical

This is simply an attempt to use greed/jealousy to paint him as evil to the common man.

For my assumption, how much is too much if you are holding physical assets?

It seems to be the case even for the common man with forfeiture laws…

Another distraction from the criminal in the White House.

Well, I haven't seen the details. Leadeye said he was charged with accepting bribes. He didn't say he was charged because they found the gold bars and cash.

more relevant would be how politicians making $200,000 /yr - would have $10,000,000 after 4 years in office

Right. Its all about optics. Like mentioning offhand some ancient unrelated criminal charge in his past.

But what upstanding person keeps that much on hand? (He must have gotten that illegally. No honest person keeps that much on hand.)
or
Who needs that much ammo? (he must be a future mass shooter or violent crackpot)

He obviously pi**ed off the Biden administration somehow so they sicced Garland after him
