Its time to stop the corruption and bring justice to our govt.

[wolfmangoland]

Senator Menendez is rightfully found guilty by the jury. He belongs in jail.

Menendez corruption was incredibly blatant. He obviously never thought he'd even be investigated, after all, keeping the bribes in cash and gold in your freaking suit pocket says 'I'll never be subject to a search warrant." If a politician that's served so long is so blase about bribes, you have to wonder about those politicians who are a bit more subtle, cautious and smarter. We also have ask ourselves about the character of the people we vote for, where this man obviously feels that he's perfectly entitled to take bribes.

It's about time he should of been in jail a long time ago

[chinookvalley]

NO ONE is above the law. Democrats are glad to see him go. Wish the GOP would hold their own accountable.

[elizabethnelson]

Will they prosecute Thomas? If the allegations are true, he has taken many more favors than this.

Greed is greed doesn't matter whats your position is

[Rael_]

If he can get those gold bars to the Supreme Court, this will all go away. 😮

Republican or Democrat and on every level of government, if you're corrupt and if you think you're above the law, then you've got to go. I say this as a NJ Democrat.

When is it Justice Clarence Thomas turn to face charges!

[Patty-bsbz]

He absolutely shouldn’t be allowed to be on release. Rather than go to prison I could see him choosing any other possible way out- even escaping to another country. Rich people think they are entitled and deserve better than others.

[blizz]

What about Clarence Thomas and his bribes?

[vinnie]

A congressman making back door deals? I'm....so.... shocked.

[GrnEyez]

This is how it is supposed to work regardless of office or party. Equal Under The Law.

[SRM_NZ]

Where is Justice Thomas and Alito trying to defend Menendez for corruption? I thought corruption was just a part of doing business?

[dwarfgrumpy]

The amazing thing is there are a bunch of legal ways to be corrupt, like insider trading open to senators and he still chose the illegal path.

[DaleHartley]

He will end up appealing it, and try to stay in the Senate until that appeal.

[paulnolan]

WHERE ARE ALL THE DEMS SUPPORTING HIM ! Oh yeah, That's right. We aint the right.

[RogerPrintz]

what do you mean "if they prove"? they did prove it. he's guilty and needs to be taken into custody. he's a flight risk.
