Sen. Bob Menendez has the financial means to stay out prison a long time, political analyst says
Story by Christine Sloan

MADISON, N.J. -- Convicted U.S. Sen. Robert Menendez has told CBS New York he's not stepping down, even as some fellow senators have called for his resignation.

Menendez has vowed to appeal his corruption conviction and on Wednesday, despite reports he was caving in to demands to resign, the senator dug in and told reporter Christine Sloan, "I can tell you that I have not resigned nor have I spoken to any so-called 'allies,'" adding, "Seems to me that there is an effort to try to force me into a statement. Anyone who knows me knows that's the worst way to achieve a goal with me."

Fairleigh Dickinson University political scientist Peter Woolley said the senator has the means to keep on going.

"He has a lot of money in his legal war chest. In America, that means you can take your legal case a long way. For some people, it means you can stay out of jail for a long time," Woolley said. ...
Article from CBS via MSN goes on to explain the process if he were to step down or be expelled.

A little history:

Marvin Mandel, Governor of Maryland, convicted of 17 counts of mail fraud (and racketeering), 'handed the reins of government over to his Lieutenant Governor, Blair Lee III, while his appeals were pending'. All convictions were overturned on appeal, he stepped back into office just days before the end of his term, and retired with full benefits and pension...

Think history might repeat itself, here?
Is there a pattern yet?

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Disgraced New Jersey Democrat Bob Menendez to Resign from U.S. Senate.
The National Pulse

Senator Bob Menendez (D-NJ) is set to resign his seat in the United States Senate effective August 20, 2024 according to sources close to the New Jersey Democrat. Menendez was convicted on multiple counts of corruption and fraud on July 16, stemming from allegations he acted as an unregistered foreign agent on behalf of the governments of Egypt and Qatar.

Each count carries a potential sentence of upwards of 20 years. Among the charges, Menendez has been found guilty of conspiracy to commit bribery, conspiracy to commit wire fraud, conspiracy to commit extortion, and obstruction of justice. The New Jersey Democrat’s home was raided by federal agents last year as part of an investigation into his ties with businessman Jose Uribe and the Egyptian and Qatari governments.

According to federal prosecutors, Menendez and his wife Nadine received payments in cash, gold bars, and a luxury vehicle for their efforts on behalf of Uribe and the Egyptian government. Consequently, the scheme to ensure military aid for Egypt ran through Menendez’s wife and Wael “Will” Hana, an Egyptian-American businessman. The U.S. Department of Justice indicted the Democratic power couple in September 2023. ...

I hope the good people of New Jersey ascertain the corruption is endemic to the Democrat Party and choose a Republican this time around.
