Going Down.

 

 (2.8-minute read.)

 OMG!  The Department of Justice has been weaponized against criminals!  When will the madness end?  

Disclaimer:  This post has nothing to do with the sexual impropriety of political figures.  People are presumed innocent unless they start openly admitting to committing the crime or crimes that they are accused of.  Otherwise, they have to be proved guilty in a court of law. 

Paydirt!

            Remember the old days when people mined or panned for gold?  Nowadays, it is delivered to some people in little gold bars!  Imagine that! Imagine people bringing you envelopes stuffed with money!  What a country!

            Democrat Senator Bob Menedez and has wife Nadine, aka Nadine Arslanian Menendez, have been indicted for accepting bribes, extortion and fraud.[1]  A search warrant was executed on his home and bank.  They found $480,000 in cash and a $150,000 in gold bars.  It was thoughtful of the Menendezes to leave the bribe money in the envelopes they came in so that law enforcement could find fingerprints and DNA from the donors.  Or perhaps it was just stupidity.  Hey, it isn’t like they buried stuff in their backyard.  (Unless the feds haven’t looked there yet.  I may have spoken too soon.)  A Mercedes and “no show” job for Nadine was also a part of the briberying.  The FBI found $70,000 in her safety deposit box. 

            The Menendezes have both expressed outrage and denied being guilty of anything.  The 3 bribers were also indicted.  Oops!  Alleged bribers until one of them flips.  That’s very popular these days.  I know that’s kind of an exaggeration because flipping has always been popular among those looking for reduced sentences.  The early birds get the lighter sentences AND just as important if not more so better press coverage.  Always helpful when it comes time to look for work again. 

We just have a jar of change in our house.

Rogues gallery

            There are 3 branches of our federal government.  The legislative branch.  The judicial branch.  The executive branch.  When I started doing a little research on this post, I found lots of lists dealing with people from these 3 branches of government that committed crimes.  There are LOTs of people listed for the various administrations going clear back to 1776.[2] 

            Who is winning when it comes to committing crimes?  Democrats or Republicans?  It looks to be pretty close to a draw.[3]  They are pretty evenly matched.  Now, I am only talking about federal crimes.  Federal Politicians have been convicted of committing state crimes as well. 

            Crimes committed during any administration can be misleading.  There will be lots of crimes listed under the Biden Administration because of the January 6 coup attempt by Trump.  The charges in Georgia will be listed as state crimes and not figured in the tally of federal crimes.  That’s okay.

There’s enough crime to go around.


Habba! Habba! Habba!

            One of Trump’s third string attorneys, Alina Habba has already claimed this is fake news to distract attention from Hunter Biden’s gun charge.[4]  She might be onto something there because Senator Bob Menendez has got him some young arm candy for a wife.  She’s a … healthy… woman for sure and dresses for success. 

Nadine Menendez had a home in foreclosure and needed help digging her way out.  She served as the middle person conduit to get sensitive information obtained by Senator Menendez to the Egyptian government. 

Putting America first!
