Then there is the acquitted felon, Senator Robert Menendez. When pressed by a reporter on the GND, he threatened to have that reporter arrested.

Of course, this is Menendez, who recently won a photo finish race with a federal jury. He ended up on trial for several reasons, (Including going against Obama), and his elitist arrogance didn\u2019t help matters. He also forgot that everyone now has a video camera, and now he\u2019s being ripped up one side and down the other. However, instead of trying to walk this back, the CommuNazi from New Jersey doubled down.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><b>Numerous members of Menendez\u2019s office, including his communications director, Tricia Enright, defended the senator and trashed what one described as \u201cgotcha journalism.\u201d <\/b><\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/i.pinimg.com\/originals\/74\/74\/83\/7474834646bf1da02910828853b18cf9.jpg?resize=600%2C314&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"600\" height=\"314\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Typical of the responses was this one from Julio Rosas:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><b>Julio Rosas @Julio_Rosas11 <\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><b>Guy who works communications for Senator Menendez is VERY concerned about attacks on the press when he&#8217;s not busy attacking outlets he doesn&#8217;t like.<\/b><\/p>\n<p>I will state that until this story, I\u2019d never heard of Julio Rosas. Still, his reply was typical of the responses to Menendez\u2019s threats. This is the problem with long term office holders in general. They think that they should always be deferred to by the Main Stream Media, and, at least for the Democrats, they generally are.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/mainstream_media.png\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-16463\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/mainstream_media-300x271.png?resize=300%2C271\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"271\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/mainstream_media.png?resize=300%2C271&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/mainstream_media.png?resize=500%2C452&amp;ssl=1 500w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/mainstream_media.png?w=542&amp;ssl=1 542w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>When you have a reporter who is not one of the slobbering sycophants of the Democrat Propaganda Corps show up and start asking tough questions, your typical Democrat is going to have a Pelosi like brain freeze and then turn and snap at the \u201cUpstart.\u201d Republicans generally are used to and expect to have a hostile press and generally know how to deal with it. (Throw them into confusion with actual facts. It\u2019s like sunlight to a vampire)<\/p>\n<p>Sadly, Menendez basically owns his seat in the Senate for as long as he wants it.
