Democrat Senator and Graft-Farmer Bob Menendez: The Bricks of Gold Found Hidden In My House Aren't Bribes. I Just Keep Stacks of Cash In Envelopes Hidden Because of My Painful Memories of Cuba, Where I Never Lived.

Menendez's story, which, in fairness, he only had a few days to invent, is that the ravages of 50s Cuban strongman Batista are so seared, seared into his memory that he always keeps envelopes full of cash and bricks of gold around just in case Shit Gets Real and he has to flee Cuba, like he did as a child.

Except he never fled Cuba as a child. He was born in New York City.

And it doesn't even seem like his parents "fled" Cuba, either. More that they simply emigrated.

I'll say one thing for his story: It is more plausible than Joe and Hunter Biden's claim that dishonorably-discharged coke addict and infamous crackhead Hunter was paid over $1 million per year by Burisma for his acumen in corporate governance.

Democratic Sen. Robert Menendez of New Jersey claimed that he kept hundreds of thousands of dollars in cash and gold bullion in his home because of Cuban property confiscations, according to a press conference he held on Monday after his indictment on federal corruption charges.
Menendez, the three-term senior senator from New Jersey, was indicted on charges of bribery, fraud and extortion for allegedly receiving money from three businessmen in exchange for steering U.S. foreign policy to favor Egypt. In a press conference on Monday, Menendez defended himself against the charges and explained that the money and gold found in his home were drawn from his savings and kept "due to a history of property confiscations in Cuba."

If he really had these fears of a communist authoritarian government seizing people's property "for the good of the state," he would not be a Democrat.

"For 30 years, I have withdrawn thousands of dollars in cash from my savings account, which I have kept for contingencies and because of the history of my family facing confiscation in Cuba," he said. "These were monies drawn from my personal savings."
Though the communist-led government of Cuba has been known to confiscate the property of citizens, Menendez was born in the United States and has lived in the country for his entire life. One of the envelopes in which the money was discovered had DNA matching a co-defendant of Menendez, Fred Diabes, who allegedly acted as a conduit for bribes with Egyptian money.

"To those who have rushed to judgment, you have done so based on a limited set of facts framed by the prosecutors in the most salacious way possible," Menendez said. "The court of public opinion is no substitute for our justice system ... I will not only be totally exonerated but also New Jersey's senior senator."
Menendez said that he was entitled to the presumption of innocence until proven guilty in a court of law. "I ask for nothing more and deserve nothing less," he said, while calling on detractors to "pause and allow for all the facts to be presented."

Then present the "facts." You say you withdrew all this money from savings? Then you can easily produce bank records showing these voluminous cash withdrawals -- and you have, I trust, receipts for the purchase of the gold bars as well?

If he has these things, there is no reason to withhold them. Publicizing them would be exonerating and would probably result in prosecutors dropping charges.

But he's not producing these records, because these records do not exist. He just needs this lie to be believed by potential leftwing jurors.

Regarding the allegations in the indictment over his actions favoring Egypt, Menendez claimed that he had attempted to hold Egypt accountable for alleged human rights violations during his tenure. The indictment claims that Menendez leaked sensitive information about the U.S. Embassy in Cairo to Egypt's government and ghost-wrote letters for the Egyptian government to send to his Senate colleagues to persuade them to withdraw objections to U.S. military aid to the country.

Why that almost sounds like what Joe Biden did with Ukraine and Burisma!!!

...
Menendez did not say whether he would seek reelection to a fourth term in 2024, though he reiterated his refusal to resign his seat. "Some of the people calling for my resignation say I've lost trust. They couldn't be more wrong," he said, before saying that he would return to Washington, D.C., this week to resume his duties in the chamber.

When the Bidens set the standards for credibility, it's a pretty low bar to clear.

And the claim as such - never mind the stupid Cuban angle - isn't that hard to believe. Some people do keep a decent chunk of cash in the safe in case they need to run, or in case there's a widespread systems outage at the bank (or more generally), etc. In fact, I think that's downright prudent.

But it *is* hard to believe, for two reasons:
1. That whole "Cuba" angle
2. He's a politician

Also what Menendez is claiming, seems to be in that grey area that the government will use to spy on people, where if they keep depositing/ withdrawing $5,000+ they be flagged for suspicious activity, but if they keep depositing/ withdrawing under $5,000 they'll be flagged for trying to circumvent the suspicious activity "safe guard" so surely there's records in the irs of his actions.

Well, sure, I do the same thing! I keep a $20 dollar bill in the back of my junk drawer, in case Cuban Communists steal all my money out of the bank.

That's not enough. I keep a cigar holder full of diamonds in my kiester. Sure, it's uncomfortable, but how can you put a price on security?

91 I have a very strong suspicion that these sorts of foreign government kickbacks to influential Senators has been going on for a very long time.
The replacement for Menendez in New Jersey will not be even some milquetoast RINO, but probably someone much harder Left.

Senators that were also/have been on the take before:
John McCain, Lindsey Graham, Hillary Clinton, Richard Luger, Chuck Schumer, of course Menendez, and probably a lot more. Look at all the Senators on the Armed Services committee. They are all likely bribe receivers.
I think most of our elected government is corrupt and corrupted. Recall Randy Cunningham, Viet Nam Air Ace and war hero, corrupted by military procurement bribes.
Somebody has it in for Menendez and has a plan for his scheduled replacement.

93 If he has these things, there is no reason to withhold them. Publicizing them would be exonerating and would probably result in prosecutors dropping charges.

Like how not one of the Biden Family of LLCs tax returns have been released?

If none of that money went to Joe, release them to prove it.
If Joe was not active in any of the LLCs, release them to prove it.
If none of the money to the LLCs were bribes, release them to prove it.

You don't need 20 different LLCs ( that we know of for now) if you are legitimate.

Posted by: G'rump928(c) at September 26, 2023 01:30 PM (aD39U)

96 Also what Menendez is claiming, seems to be in that grey area that the government will use to spy on people, where if they keep depositing/ withdrawing $5,000+ they be flagged for suspicious activity, but if they keep depositing/ withdrawing under $5,000 they'll be flagged for trying to circumvent the suspicious activity "safe guard" so surely there's records in the irs of his actions.

I actually like a defiant Menendez, as hell burn every bridge to defend himself and his imbecile grifter children, so this could get very fun.

As a business owner. The bank I USED to be at would only let me deposit checks with no cash back. I would keep a couple hundred bucks for employees rewards and a petty cash amount. They said it was for fraud reasons. I said it's none of your effing business. Heck I could just go to an ATM and take out cash, but I'm right here. It's my company. I switched banks.

118 Ace: "Except he never fled Cuba as a child. He was born in New York City."

To be fair, he might well need to flee NYC/NJ because they're transitioning into Cuba. So he's setting up a reasonable predicate for his impeding escape.

Not saying that all makes sense, but when you're caught dead to rights, anything is better than nothing. The DNC voting class will readily grab that like voyagers on the Titanic clasping a life preserver.

=========

Because the Secretary of State of AZ intentionally botched the election process in 2022 (up to and including signature matching so bad that it was out of alignment with state law, according to the results of a lawsuit), and that woman is now Governor while the Secretary of State position is held by another Democrat in a state where Democrats have risen to power by intentionally botching elections and getting away with it.

It has nothing to do with Lake herself.

It has everything to do with the people of AZ allowing their government to be stolen in the open.

Who is stupid enough to store their bribe money AT HOME????

Here's an idea. Invest in self-storage facilities. Rent out most of the spaces, including a couple of legit spaces to yourself for your unused furniture and baby clothes, but keep several with dummy customers (complete with paperwork and monthly payments) and use them for your bribe stash. Certainly not foolproof, but it'd make things a lot harder for the po-po to get search warrants, since they'd have to know the names of the dummy customers and have evidence that they trace back to you.

I'm sure that some nefarious individuals have pulled something like that before.

Per the latest Fed releases, the Fed holds $7.9B in gold for foreign govts. Valued at $42.22 per ounce. Do the math on the market value of that now.

254 "Speaking of gold. We need to audit Fort Knox. I've got a feeling all that gold that supposed to be there ain't."

Some years ago, Texas (via the University Texas school system funds) extracted (or tried to extract) its physical gold from the Federal depository/bank in New York.

Wise move given the ideological split between the States. I'm assuming the transfer was successful.

256 I have some cash in my safe as an "oh shit" fund. I also know the government loves to steal. To help possibly prevent that, I also have the receipts from the bank with it, along with the paystubs from which the money came.

I can provide the paper trail, because I didn't steal the money, I didn't embezzle it, I didn't get it in exchange for criminal activity, etc. I wonder why Menendez can't. He's not a normal person, he's a smart guy. A master of the universe. A sophisticated, intelligent man who is qualified to rule us.

WB has done that. Disney hasn't. They've released all of their major projects, and written off others that were exclusive to streaming after releasing them (like the Willow show).

Snow White was meant for theaters, something that should result in actual dollars instead of fake dollars from streaming.

I seriously, seriously doubt that online rumors based on a poorly written Inside the Magic article that doesn't even claim that Snow White is canceled indicate actual Disney policy in this case. I'd sooner believe Doomcock.

People this detached from reality need to be put down or institutionalized. They have arrested and criminally prosecuted their primary political opponent and...he's the fascist? This is why I cannot get into elections at this point. People as psychologically damaged need to be expelled or worse, not defeated at the polls.

346 The NY FED keeps a lot of gold (or kept, actually, after 9/11/2001 a lot of foreign central banks wanted theirs back) under the streets of Manhattan. It made sense, at one time, for central bank settlements.

Ft. Knox supposedly has about 8,000 tons, but there’s been no official audit since 1958. There was a famous dog and pony show in the 1970s where they opened a vault or two.

Interestingly it was reported that the very first stop the new Treasury Secretary made under the Trump administration was Ft. Knox. After 8 years of Bush and Barky it was unlikely there would be much, if anything left.

The nuclear “deal” they made with Iran or whatever it was, the rumor was they didn’t want us dollars. It was a mix of Euros and gold bullion, probably from Ft. Knox.

Density. Density of gold is 19.30 g/cm^3. Tungsten is 19.25 gm/cm^2. Density of lead is just 11.33 g/cm^3.

A bar of tungsten will weight about the same as a bar of gold of the same volume. A lead core would be noticeably lighter.

394 The government still values “its” gold at the “official” price of $42.222 per troy ounce.

The big bars are subject to fakery using tungsten, this is why good bars have always been assayed and stored in a vault. After that it doesn’t leave the exchange. If you want to take delivery, you can, but it’s a process. And then if you want to sell, it requires assay all over again.

This is why government issued 1oz coins and smaller sizes are preferred. Virtually impossible to counterfeit.

423 Here's what I take away from this latest Menendez escapade:

He keeps getting pulled in for serious criminal charges and YET continue to hold the chair of the Senate Foreign Relations committee. What does that tell us? The WHOLE damn apparatus is rife with bribe taking, secret selling, cronyism. If it weren't, he would have absolutely no support in retaining that position. I'm buying stock in pitchforks and torches.

424 In 2024, Zoomers are officially set to replace Boomers as the largest voting demographic in America.

Last week, Taylor Swift registered over 40,000 voters with a single Instagram post, and most of them were zoomers. She has decided to engage in an anti-Trump tirade in which she is using her platform to make abortion and fear mongering about divisiveness as the number one issue to get people registered to vote.

One of the proposals to create money out of thin air to get around the debt limit (for a few months) was to "revalue" the gold.

Set the value to current market value as opposed to $42 per Troy ounce. Get a few hundred billion more dollars to create on the Fed balance sheet.

Schmidt, another gift from McCain. Schmidt now alleges that he never voted for McCain and that he had become very disillusioned with him and thought him unfit to be POUTS. I assert that Schmidt was always a Democrat loving douchebag and his work on Republican campaigns were just stepping stones. A man without any true convictions.

Posted by: Wolfus Aurelius,

I don't think her standards are too high - I think that this is her schtick and it has worked extremely well catapulting her to fame with a worldwide audience and boatloads of cash. There is even a movie out now about her latest concert tour which will rake in even more millions. Simple ingredient - tell girls that in their relationships, the guy is not good enough for them and always at fault. Bam!

Posted by: TheJamesMadison, searching for more with John Huston at September 26, 2023 01:40 PM (LvTSG)

The cigar. Award it to this man.

That is exactly what happened in AZ, with the sole quibble that its been since the 2018 election. The individual who was in charge of Maricopa County elections was one Adrian Fontes that year. "Emergency" voting centers were illegally opened in the heavily Donk parts of that county. They delivered to one Katie Hobbs the Secretary of State office after multiple recounts.

Fontes was elected to the Secretary of State office the same year Katie Hobbs stole the Governorship. Stolen elections have consequences, and AZ is currently suffering for it.
