Menendez's Controversial Attendance at Classified Ukraine Briefing

Democratic Senator Bob Menendez, who is facing federal corruption charges for allegedly aiding the government of Egypt, attended a classified briefing on Ukraine, causing concerns among colleagues who question his continued service and security credentials. Menendez denied being barred from a previous briefing and defended his right to access classified information. Some senators are calling for his resignation, while others argue that he has the right to attend briefings as a member of the Senate. The subject of the briefing was unrelated to the charges against Menendez.
