New York federal prosecutors on Wednesday agreed to delay Gold Bars Bob Menendez’s bribery trial to July or possibly August over health issues facing co-defendant/wife Nadine, Reuters reports.
The nature of the health issues was not disclosed by the pair’s attorneys, but if the feds bought it then it must be real enough. They still oppose the Menendezes’ efforts to be tried separately. The delay keeps the scumbag DINO in the Senate at least two months longer than it would’ve taken, but then again who the hell knows if the Dems would have the balls to expel him even after a conviction, so don’t be terribly surprised if he hangs on until January 2025 while still out on appeal. It’d be nice if he’d just take a fucking hint and resign already so Phil Murphy can appoint his wife or whoever to the rest of the term and keep it warm for presumptive Dem nominee Congressman Andy Kim.
