#BobMenendez #bribery #investigation
Two criminals who need to go to prison.
Menendez needs to step down
Definitely.
Step Down?!? He needs to go to prison
Menedez should be barred from voting on any legislation while under investigation.
They only do that kind of thing to Trump.
@@Bob-bb3ur: Donald Trump has never been a member of Congress so there’s never been anything to bar him from. He’s never been able to vote on legislation.
Give me one example of when they did this to Trump where they barred him from anything. Just one. You make stuff up to fit your narrative. @@Bob-bb3ur
Dems need him to maintain their majority😂
@@Bob-bb3ur trump is running for president with 92 criminal charges against him...the cult has his back
Prosecutors have already nabbed the individuals who bribed menendez. They already have the goods on menendez.
@Iknowaboutroaches3350it’s not what you know; but who you know!
The “Good ole boy network alive and well!”
Do you think it would be handled the same way if it was a Republican?
@Iknowaboutroaches3350no.........its the swamps way.
Likely, since he's a Dem. Senator with them controlling the senate and presidency. Party doesn't matter to these people most of them think they're beyond us. At this point we're lucky that any of them face any consequences. The SCOTUS only just last year decided to have a code of ethics, but even then they decided to police themselves.
But santos news was after this guys and Santos already resigned like a man 😂.
Perjury and misrepresentation charges should be added
But the gold bars are directly linked to a robbery. They have serial numbers and have been positively identified as the same gold bars that were stolen.
When all else fails. LIE
I guess his wife's mother stole the gold bars .....lol
@thaimassage23 And since her mommy stole them, she admits to being an accessory to the theft.
Yeah, that’s the ticket! Let Grandma’s daughter tarnish her own mother. They are two very poor grifters. @@thaimassage23
And you hear nothing about that fact when they are reporting about the whole ordeal
Who needs a bank when you have jackets hanging around? Not Bob.
😂
So where do you keep your gold bars anyway?
In my gold sneakers, where else?
Thank God 4 corrupt politicians, without them nothing could get done
obviously a great place, too@@tedecker3792
And he's still an active US senator.
That is a disgrace and typical "untouchable, entitled" attitude!
I do agree BUT you have a criminal who has been charged 91 times and is running for President
Democrat senator🤡🥱
That's the entire problem!
trump is still waking around@@dtsh4451
The mother in-law broke into the guy's house and stole his gold bars! Tragic.
😂😂😂. You should be a defense attorney. It’s basically the same argument that they use when these kids get caught driving stole cars. They are never charged with car theft. They are charged with receiving stolen property. 😂😂😂
Oh she should have kept her mouth shut. Now she gets locked up too.
I'm going to take a wild guess and say she was never told about the fact that the serial numbers on gold bars are tracked.
That's a dirty husband all around right there.
No way this is an isolated case, investigate all federal politicians
Yes! To look down on both sides of the fence and make examples out of them is the only way to curtail this crap. With the acknowledgment that this will never go away. Due diligence should hold them in check. That’s all that can be done.
WRITING LAWS & MONETARY APPROPRIATIONS TO BUSINESSES / CORPORATIONS THAT HAVE STOCK OPTIONS , FOR MEMBERS OF CONGRESS , THEIR FAMILY MEMBERS ALONG WITH THEIR STAFF WHO *** BUY / SELL THEIR STOCK HOLDINGS ----- ANY CONFLICTS OF INTEREST / INSIDER TRADING ISSUES INVOLVED WITH HAVING PRIOR KNOWLEDGE ????????
*** FOR S O M E , IF THEIR NOT MILLIONAIRES ENTERING OFFICE , S O M E ARE WORKING TO BECOME ONE WHILE IN OFFICE .
I nvestigate these nutz !
They are investigating everyone with past and current issues
Silly
Boots are filled with corruption
... I believe her, .... my mom left gold bars lying around too.
Pretty common in my family as well
Again, two tiered justice at Work. But not the way you think. It’s for the rich, And different for the poor.
But you can't say that! This is America you're talking about. A land that is Free and Fair and run by God-fearing Christians.
Anyway, that's what Hollywood movies told us.
Definitely moms gold. My mom always carried ingots around, you know, in case she needed to buy a yacht tax free. They were always on the bed, couch, toilet tank....😂
Your mom sounds like the classic female, did she carry the kitchen sink in her bag too, so she could wash her hands? No wonder she could never find that pack of gum you wanted a stick of. 😉
Nice talking with you, but I must scurry off now, before the women folk reading this, start throwing coffee mugs at me!
Your mom too??? I thought only my mom did that! WOW!!!!
COOL !!!!!!!
My mom used them for hoarders of depends, especially after trips to Taco Bell😮
Gold bars make good door stops.
This dude should be expelled from congress and definitely should be in prison.
Those serial numbers just don't lie.
The main question is that did this guy give the gold bars to the senator and then report them stolen, or did he report them stolen in order to milk insurance and still end up giving them to the Senator. I think the government is doing a decent job as having their cooperators disguised as Codefendants.
Caught red handed!!!! 😂😂😂😂
Both of these people should be in prison, along with Rump and most Republicans.
What's your reasoning on most Republicans belonging in jail?
Start with being an accessory after the fact to Trump's crime's for a start.
Then do a blanket investigation into insider trading for every current and former elected officer of the government.
My guess is you should be imprisoned too, how on earth do you want people to be locked up without any wrongdoing
@@wilbroadkunene6370
Interesting stance there given the evidence of clear criminal acts that has been released to the public.
Note, what has been released is damning enough, but is nothing compared to what will be tended in the trial.
Nadine????
Trying to get evidence suppressed really is always a bad look.
As many poker players say, keeping money in the form of $50 bills are just bad !!! Bob and Nadine Menendez learned the lesson the hard way...!!!
100k is a lot? Aren't most Senators millionaires....
Why are these old criminals not rotting in prison!????
Someone's been declaring dependant twins for decades. Not sure if the gold bars paid for them.
How many times before they get these crooks ?!?!
Everyone is accountable… if he’s guilty then he must be jailed….
His wife's mom had found the gold bars in a bag
on the sidewalk one day while walking her dog.
Doesn’t everyone keep hundreds of thousands of dollars in their laundry room?
Only in my imagination
@@aquariandawn4750 😁
How else would you do laundery?
@@outinspace3083 😁
They both should get life in prison immediately
He needs to be kicked out just like Santos!!
If Menendez broke laws, hold him accountable. If Trump broke laws, hold him accountable. It isn’t that hard folks!
what about Biden
Wonder when they will figure out why he really went to Thailand
Eewwwww..
Why would she not lie? for her Sugar Daddy.....So disgraceful
POLITICS A WASTE OF MONEY, PERIOD
ITS A WRAP for him…..he will definitely unalive in prison!!! 100% 🤔
Remember Epstein
EEEEEEPPPPPSSSSSTTTTTEEEEEIIIINNNNN!
So they're throwing her dead mother under the bus. These people have no shame
Christ lock these two corrupt people away for life
Nothing to see here. 👀
Said dopey donnie
Menendez needs to go. Period.
This guy needs to go! Santos was kicked to the curb, and this guy should join him!
That's because the cowardly republicans caved as usual.... Santos was convicted of no crime, yet tossed away like a bad fruit salad....And now that seat is the hands of a democrat...
She should probably give those gold bars to the family of the pedestrian she killed while driving drunk.
How convenient......Lock both of them up
She gives new meaning to the term gold-digger. They both belong in federal prison.
IF they were passed down when the mother in law died they would have had to pay an inheritance tax. I’m sure he would never cheat on his taxes so the IRS will exonerate him.
If we are to believe that the gold bars were given to him by his mother-in-law, then it was she that was bribed and these bars were simply a gift to him. Did Bob report those gifts on his tax returns??? I'm sure the IRS is taking a keen interest on adding up all the cash found in his residence. If the numbers don't add up, he's got a lot of explaining to do.
That's right Lucy
So many gold bars and so much cash in his house....isn't it a' normal' thing for a long time serving US senator ???
Lock 🔒 him up!
Cool then the IRS has records of those equities being transferred because you would have paid taxes on those too.
Yeah. Let's blame this on somone who can neither verify nor refute..Shame on her using her deceased mother as defense
The stolen gold bars were probably not stolen. Insurance fraud comes to mind.
This is a true old school politician!!!
" yes officer those gold bars are my moms. She died 10 years ago"
" But maam, these gold bars are dated 2020"
" Awwww sheeeeeeit"
They both need to go to jail.
Charges should be added
Liar
Sure, the loot is my Moms :P That is pretty lame.... That wouldn't work for anyone who is just a normal joe blow...
Those are not my gold bars of untraceable gold, they are my Grandmothers :P Muahhahahhaa She was Russian you know LOL!
My Chinese Grandma left me all this gold that we found under her bed along with Classified documents :P
Gold Bars and Coins etc are traceable, they record them and they have serial numbers...
I hope she said these lies under oath!!
Perjury is good enough to do time!
Lock him up
Was the old woman having hording dementia?
Not buying that story.
Stolen gold ends up in a Democrat senators house..... No shocker there.
Menéndez pensó que estaba aún en cuba, donde es normal la corrupción.
It's always interesting to hear about unusual stories like this one involving gold bars and claims of inheritance. Situations like these can often lead to complex legal discussions and can be quite intriguing. Regardless of the outcome, it's a reminder of how unexpected life can be and how stories from all walks of life can capture our attention. It's important to stay informed and curious about the world around us, and stories like these definitely contribute to that! Keep exploring and staying engaged with the diverse and fascinating events that happen around us. 🌟
Yeah, my mother had a few gold bars hanging around the house as well.
He is not Cuban he was born in the US !!
Hilarious that they traced the serial numbers on the gold to a heist 😂
Lock up these criminals.
Democrat or Republican that is corrupt should respond to the law and that is that
Yeah but you see how smart the Democrats are they're keeping him up there so they can get his vote
A good Grafter should always diversify his portfolio…
The tolerant and truthful left.
You know she is lying lock them both up! When you are caught with money like that in the house that just means you are hiding it from the banks and the government because it's illegal cash.
Unfortunately for Bob and now his wife… They have serial numbers on them.
Menendez is arguably worse than Santos
Funny how The Supreme Court Judge and wife have gotten away with there wrong doing. No one cares to bring that up again. He is truly above the law. But is his wife?
She is carrying two old gold bars with her every day. I hope she doesn’t have them repossessed.
Gosh. I was excited yesterday when I checked an old pay envelope and found 50€. Riches to me. These greedy crooks should spend years in jail.
That is a lie! Add possession of stolen property to any charges.
I have had one hundred 20 dollar bills before but
One hundred 50 bills is very questionable...
vote 💙
About time we are hearing about the despicable things these 2 have done to America! He needs to be off the government payroll.
Why isn’t this story time stamped, other than show it was “posted 12 hours ago” ? Maybe I missed it…….
Doesn’t everyone keep hundreds of thousands of dollars with their hangers? I mean I thought this was a common practice.
He needs to get kicked out of the Senate immediately and get ready to go to prison and I am a Democrat.
Get them ALL, no matter which sides.
All suspected drug money and the US Marshals should sieze it all.
0:39 Maverick: Don't put all your eggs in the same basket😂
It's fascinating how stories involving gold bars always seem to capture our attention, isn't it? There's something timeless and intriguing about gold, a metal that has been valued for centuries.

Gold's enduring value and the mysteries often surrounding it make for such captivating tales! 🌟✨
Shiny
Next time, use gloves when you're bribing a senator. Amateurs. 🤦♂🤦♂🤣🤣
NBC cant ever get a story right.
Bob Menendez was born in Hudson County NJ , he is of Cuban ancestry , not a Cuban born American.
Those have to be claimed as income regardless.
it must get to the point where the investigators start saying: "yeah right" a lot.
Looks like Nadine hid a couple bars in that sweater. 😆
This can be eliminated by having ALL congress members on term limits. Maybe 2 terms max for senators and 4 terms max for the house, or even lower.
If it's 2 terms MAX., for a president, then it should be the SAME for EVERYONE ELSE.
Menendez, like lots of folks, recycled a lot. That recycling resulted in the cash. Hey, honest mistake.
Every word out of the senators mouth is B.S.
they killed their parents! Of course they have golden boots!
Yup. I lent him 10 of my gold bars so I want those back.
Maybe , just being the wife of a lawmaker, she didn’t know that you must declare caches of gold
hey fannie keeps lots of cash at home so it’s his claim that he can aswell it’s not out of the norm anymore
Are the NBC anchors paid with gold bars? ✨️
Sad…
he sounds like he's reading a story to 2nd graders haha
