And now we learn that menendez’s then future wife was given a car by the Egyptian businessman who is accused of bribing him. After she ran over and left for dead a man. This asswipe really needs to listen to all his fellow democrats and resign already.
Maybe a package deal could be made to expel Menendez and Santos at the same time. And maybe that guy who pulled the fire alarm as well.Originally Posted by jp1
A recent 60 minutes interview with Michael Lewis was about his interviews with Sam Bankman-Fried (i.e. SBF). As the story goes, SBF had a team of his meet with a Trump team through back channels. Sam wanted to ask, how much money if it would take for Trump not to run again and if such a thing were legal. The answer came back from the Trump team, something around five billion. It's a good story, but less believable than his meeting to buy a few favors from Mitch McConnell, which seemed legal and better documented.
The 60 minutes episode is searchable if interested and the NYT had a recent article questioning some of Lewis's accuracy.

Why would the democrats make a deal to let republicans off the hook for supporting santos. The republicans think menendez should fight and stay. The democrats would be better off pointing out that they think santos and lendmdez should resign but that republicans like shitty people.
VP? Dems make Harris an offer she can't refuse - nomination and support in a run for Feinstein's seat?
We already have three great candidates running for feinstein’s seat. And why would Harris be interested in going back to just being a senator?
It is a graceful exit for her. It is for the good of the country. Are you saying she cannot see these reasons?
also California gets what it wants, a black female senator.

Wow…. graceful exit? why? As jp1 said… why would she want to be demoted? Why would it be good for the country? What other VP would ever have considered this?
No snark: I think being a United
states Senator is more interesting and useful and should interest public servants who really want to serve. It’s also incredibly prestigious. And if one is any good at the job and at campaigning, you can hold that job for decades. You can’t be vice president all that long.
Who was it who said the vice presidency was worth “a bucket of warm spit””?
