Washington (CNN)Federal prosecutors indicted Democratic Sen. Robert Menendez on corruption charges on Wednesday for allegedly using his Senate office to push the business interests of a friend and donor in exchange for gifts, according to the Justice Department.
The case, brought by the Justice Department’s public integrity unit, sets up a high-stakes battle between a New Jersey senator who has fought off investigations for years, and federal prosecutors and the FBI who have spent years pursuing him.

I bet our Mayor hates that photo now.
Our Senator will ride out all this political in-fighting.
Well well well… What do we have to say for ourselves now ?
Yes indeed, Mr. Mayor, you preach how you trust the professionals. Well……guess you made a whopper of a mistake on this one.
So the only time a sitting senator of the president’s own party can be indicted for alleged wrongdoing is if he has separately crossed the president? Tsk, tsk. Such license.
You are known by the company you keep Mr. Mayor.
Great photo Mayor. “Tell me who you know, I’ll tell you who you are” – My Uncle Charlie.
