Tonight, a sitting United States senator is accused of using his official position to help a foreign power in exchange for riches and rewards. And while the allegations of cash, gold bars, even the convertibles, are getting all the attention, the other end of those alleged bribes is downright chilling. The Justice Department indicting senator bob menendez and his wife among allegations he sought and received Sensitive Information about u. S. Diplomats in egypt, information that eventually made its way to people with ties to the government. In addition, prosecutors say that he gave nonpublic information about u. S. Military aid. Also accused of ghost writing a pitch to senators on behalf of a foreign government. That would ease restrictions on arms and ammunition to egypt. Those restrictions in place in part due to concerns about human rights and democracy. All of this as he is chairing the Senate Foreign relations committee, one of the most powerful positions in the entire government.
