  1. he's a senator and not a supreme court justice? hmmmmmmmmmmm

  2. In New Jersey we love Democratic Senator Robert Menendez for his honesty.

    Bob will be the first to admit that he is a Democrat willing to sell influence to foreign goverment for cash / gold/ automobiles/ underage girls/ free mortgage payments / no show jobs / you name it.

    In NJ who cares we will vote for any Democrat live or dead — We love them.

    Bob only took 9% not like greedy Joe Bidens 10%. Give Bob a break.

  3. Us democrats aren't crazy like republicans. It doesn't matter to us what party affiliation they hold. If they break the law, they should be held accountable. Frankly, people who take an oath should be held to a higher standard and given an enhanced sentence for breaking their oath!

  4. Get all those corrupt politicians out of office they are a disgrace

  5. Surprise Surprise another crooked politician in America politics 😁

  6. Gold Bars ? Special forces

  7. Didn’t hear it was classified information. He must not be toting the democratic agenda to destroy America. Liberals only get investigated when they speak out against their own policies.

  8. I am so happy about this indictment,i despise Menendez,a corrupt and war monger scum.

  9. This is an attempt to sacrifice a pawn to protect a king. Joe Biden is a career criminal.
    Also, YouTube is the enemy of freedom.

  10. Who does he think he is? Clarence Thomas?

  11. If these found to be treasonous, are they going to do what traitor get Death for saling secrets to a foreign country

  12. Their eating their own, I was wondering who it would be. They figured get rid of him before the Iran vote.. ya, we see you CRIMINALS🎉

  13. So it begins….THE STORM IS UPON US. 😊

  14. NBC, What makes you say he is innocent? How do you know? Are you a witness to his innocence? Maybe he will be declared innocent because of declaring the race card.

  15. Yea it’s totally normal to have envelopes and envelopes of cash and gold bars sitting around your house. He’s innocent 😇

  16. But…but….TRUMP!!!! 🙄

  17. Democrats💰💸💸💸💸💸💸💸

  18. He has ties to the Bidens….

  19. I have a feeling he is not the only one.

  20. Here we go – this will be dragged out for years and fade from the news and NO ONE will be accountable. It’s absolutely unbelievable. But god forbid we are late to file our taxes each year.

  21. Good. Now do Biden and his crime family next!

  22. All these crooks are stealing and looting the taxpayers, the Ukraine war is a big money laundering scheme.

  23. How about that Supreme Court Justice guys who accepted millions of dollars in trips, private jets, yacht trips, etc.?
