Once again, Democrat Sen. Bob Menendez of New Jersey finds himself in hot water. The Department of Justice (DOJ) is considering pressing charges against him in connection with an investigation into his shady dealings with foreign regulators. Apparently, Menendez’s wife was showered with extravagant gifts by a food producer that scored an exclusive Egyptian contract for halal food exports. That’s quite the coincidence, isn’t it?

The DOJ is now in the final stages of making a decision on whether to prosecute Menendez, which includes meetings with his lawyers. It’s been a long time coming, with this years-long federal criminal probe finally reaching its climax. You have to wonder, what did Menendez do to warrant such attention from federal organizations? Well, it seems like he may have used his power on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee to influence this lucrative deal with Egypt. He even went so far as to hold a meeting with Egyptian officials and the owner of the food producer. Fishy, isn’t it?
If Menendez is innocent, then why all the smoke? Why would he host a meeting between the two sides if he had nothing to gain from it? And why would his wife receive expensive gifts from the food producer? These are questions that prosecutors may have already answered, and it might not be looking too good for Menendez. However, we’ll have to wait and see what the DOJ decides.
What’s interesting to note is that this entire investigation took only a year, despite involving a senator and a foreign government. On the other hand, the investigation into Hunter Biden’s activities lasted a whopping five years. The difference is quite striking, don’t you think? People can draw their own conclusions from that. Will Menendez actually face charges this time? He’s managed to slip away in the past, whether it was accusations of underage prostitution during the Obama administration or bribery during the Trump administration. Will the DOJ once again choose not to pursue him? Well, we’ll find out soon enough.
