"US Senator Bob Menendez Indicted for Conspiring as Unregistered Agent of Egypt"

U.S. Senator Bob Menendez has been charged with a new count of acting as an unregistered agent of the Egyptian government, according to a revised indictment filed against him. Prosecutors allege that Menendez and his wife accepted bribes in exchange for using their influence to interfere with law enforcement investigations and aid the Egyptian government. The indictment accuses Menendez of taking actions on behalf of Egyptian officials without registering as a foreign agent. Menendez has pleaded not guilty to the charges, and his trial is set to begin in May.
