Former Top Democrat Senator Sentenced To 11-Year Prison Term

Former Sen. Bob Menendez (D-N.J.) called his 11-year prison sentence for corruption a “political prosecution,” citing former President Trump’s legal troubles as evidence of a biased justice system.

Convicted of accepting bribes and acting as an agent for Egypt, Menendez became the first U.S. official found guilty of serving a foreign government while in office.

Outside court, Menendez said, “President Trump was right… this process is political and corrupt.” He didn’t say whether he would seek a pardon from Trump.

Menendez resigned from the Senate last year after losing his committee chair. He is reportedly considering a political comeback, possibly as an independent.
