SENATOR’S ATTEMPT TO DISMISS CORRUPTION CHARGES FAILS …

|| By FITSNEWS || Federal prosecutors claim to have uncovered “specific, corroborated” evidence that U.S. Senator Bob Menendez had sex with underage prostitutes in the Dominican Republic.

This shocking admission was made in response to attempts by Menendez’s attorneys to dismiss corruption charges filed earlier this year against the 61-year-old Democrat – who is accused of doling out political favors to Florida ophthalmologist Salomon Melgen, one of his campaign donors.

Specifically, Menendez is accusing of “(using) his Senate office to push the business interests of (Melgen) in exchange for gifts.”

Among those gifts?  Dominican debauchery.

Two-and-a-half years ago Menendez was forced to repay Melgen nearly $60,000 in travel expenses related to their trips to the Dominican Republic, which his office referred to as an “oversight.”  Of course that’s just a fraction of the $1 million in gifts and campaign contributions Menendez is accused of receiving from Melgen.

Ah Latin love … it truly knows no partisan divide, does it?

Anyway, Menendez claims the whole thing is a political smear – and that the charges against him should be dropped because the underage prostitution allegations are false.  And in his defense, some of the women who have leveled charges against him have since recanted their original version of events.

But attorneys with the U.S. Department of Justice (USDOJ) refuse to rule out the claims.

“Presented with specific, corroborated allegations that defendants Menendez and Melgen had sex with underage prostitutes in the Dominican Republic, the Government responsibly and dutifully investigated those serious allegations,” USDOJ attorneys wrote in court filings this week.

Those allegations “have not resulted in any criminal charges,” the government noted – although that doesn’t mean they aren’t true.

Menendez has previously denied that he and Melgen hired prostitutes (including one who was allegedly 16 years old at the time) to perform sex acts on them at alcohol-soaked orgies in the Dominican Republic.  In their latest filing, though, government attorneys asserted Menendez’s denials were “easily disprovable,” and accused the Senator of making representations that were “demonstrably false.”

Hmmmm …

Menendez was elected to a six-year term in the U.S. Senate in November 2012 – shortly after the allegations against him first surfaced.  He has remained in office through his indictment, consistently casting votes in support of the administration of Barack Obama.

Wonder if Obama will go after Bill Clinton on those underage sex allegations if Hillary doesn’t go away quietly?

Dunno, but even as a Dem I think Mendendez is a scumbag. Not just for the underage chicks, but he is from New Jersey – so I should know. Bill on the other hand can do whatever he wants – he’s a private citizen. But Bobbin’ for Bob – he did it under the guise of official Senate business. Now screwing other people as official Senate business – I mean McConnell and others do that all the time, but usually they’re legal age of consent voters.

I really find it hard to make serious fun of Tango anymore. I guess I’m just a softie, but I have pity on someone so full of hatred for everyone else. I mean, that sort of hatred is like a cancer, and I don’t want to make fun of someone with cancer. But that’s right now. I might change my mind later.

GT was banned from this site months ago, and he still strikes fear into you.

And Donald Trump took GT’s playbook – with a billion dollars -and he is using it to run for president.

Slap the Shit out of you, and never let up. Push the game. Never let you breathe, that’s how GT beat the fuck out of you. He knocked your asses senseless, daily. You didn’t “know whether to shit or wind your wrist watch.”…and Trump is playing that game like a master, while you piss all over yourselves from the media on down.

It was early 2017 and as I looked out over the landscape so much had changed. At Fox gone were Steve Duchy and his son, and Brian Kilmeade had been forced to write on the board 1,000 times – I Love Roger more than my Mom. Hannity was unemployed, his attempts at self syndication had failed, and he had been fired from the Trump Express Campaign as the PR guy just before the election night implosion. His efforts to free-lance an interview with former VP candidate Rubio failed, and former GOP Presidential candidate Jeb Bush wouldn’t take his calls. He know he couldn’t call President Biden. And then there was Greta – forced to talk a leave of absence after calling Karl Rove a bald-beanie boy (they were now said to be dating). Fox ratings were in the tank, an unbelievable reversal associated with their war on Trump. And the GOP, having now lost the Senate, the House and yet again the White House, was in tatters. It was a sad day.

Since when it is a Federal crime to buy a hooker in the Dominican Republic? Are they asking to extradite him? He’s a target of the DOJ for bucking BO on Cuba and Iran, plain and simple.

They were underage. I thought that, for sure, a savage nation like the Dominican Republic would have a ‘lax’ age of consent; but its 18 for the entire country. So, yes, Menendez did commit a federal crime (if he did have sex with underage ho’s).

Another entitled, political whore whose self-interest is served by the special interests that hold blackmail leverage over them for which the American people ultimately pay.
So self-absorbed, and confident in their government meal ticket, they let their tallywackers overtake their ethical and moral compass.
Straight faced or tear-stained they speak of remorse, liken your sins to theirs, talk of the grace of God, and claim they have been restored to a better version.
Don’t we know by now that liars lie, and cheaters cheat?

If he did this I would not vote for him. Saying that since when has the Feds been in the business of making statements in ongoing cases. Obama is pushing him for his vote on the Iranian deal. DC should be nuked. We have a President that Blackmails and lies on a daily basis. The Democrat Party in my opinion is trash and the GOP is not much better. America needs more and better choices than the TWO Party System is willing to supply!

Well, the age of consent in the Dominican Republic is 18; so yes he did commit a crime. But, let’s be honest here, 16 is the perfect age for consent; and prostitution should be legal. This reduces the vast amounts of money spent on solving this sorts of ‘crime.’
