I knew about the free plane rides and the child hookers.. but this was not on the local news..

NBC 4 New York reported last week the federal criminal investigation into the senator is also focusing in part on his relationship with two fugitive bankers from Ecuador.

The bankers are accused of embezzling over $100 million dollars from their Filanbanco bank, and their relatives donated thousands of dollars to the senator’s 2012 campaign.

In 2012, Menendez wrote letters to U.S. Homeland Security officials on behalf of Ecuador businessmen William and Roberto Isaias in support of their efforts to gain permanent U.S. residence in the Florida.

Federal election records show relatives of the Isaias brothers donated over $10,000 to the senator’s 2012 campaign and over $100,000 to the Democratic Party.

And he said he agrees with the Isaias brothers, who say they have been unfairly persecuted by the current government in Ecuador.

the guys get accused of embezzling 100 million.. and this jerk feels we should let them in...

most of these allegations.. have been around for awhile. the plane rides were know to be true before the last election..

so for the most part.. Liberals do NOT care if you steel a $100 million, take bribes, live it up on someone else's dime,, get caught with underage hookers..

and to top it off he didn't want to pay the hooker..


but this may take the cake..
"Since entering politics as a corruption-fighting mayor of Union City, N.J.


On August 27, 2006, two Republican state lawmakers filed an ethics complaint against Menendez, alleging he broke conflict-of-interest rules when he rented property out to a nonprofit agency that receives federal funds.

Menendez maintains that he rented the property out below market-value because "he was supportive of its work"

isn't that a ... bribe?

In 2010, The Wall Street Journal reported that Menendez had written to Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke,[109] asking him to approve an acquisition that would rescue from the prospect of receivership a New Jersey bank, First Bank Americano, operated by Menendez contributors.[110] It was discovered that "eight of 15 directors, including the bank’s chairman and vice-chairman, have been contributors to Menendez or his political action committee."[111] Former federal bank regulator William K. Black called the letter "grotesquely inappropriate"

An aide to the senator said that his decision to write the letter was not influenced by political contributions.

A highly critical report by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation found that the institution had engaged in unsafe or unsound banking practices, including operating without adequate supervision by its board of directors, an excessive level of delinquent or bad loans, inadequate earnings and insufficient coverage of its assets.[112][113][114][115]

Do they get a refund when the bribe doesn't work?



this one ... well.. if a republican does it it is wrong,.. but.. no so for this guy.
On January 5, 2012 Menendez blocked Judge Patty Shwartz, an Obama administration nominee to a federal judgeship, drawing speculation that the block was placed because of Shwartz's relationship with the head of the public corruption unit for New Jersey’s federal prosecutor.


On December 12, 2012 it was reported that the Senator's office had an unpaid intern volunteering who had let his visitor visa expire and who was a registered sex offender. Immigration and Customs Enforcement had been aware of the man as early as October 2012 but according to the Associated Press, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) instructed federal agents not to arrest the man until after Election Day
underage hookers.. foreign illegal immigrant who just happens to be a convicted sex offender..

it's not we don't have enough sleaze in this country but he has to outsource those jobs as well..



oh and the worse part of all this..

the liberals just re-elected him knowing most of the allegations were true.
