Disgraced Democratic Senator Robert Menendez is scheduled to resign from office Tuesday, and is negotiating a pardon from Joe Biden before the president leaves office at the end of the year, according to political analysts and longtime associates of the New Jersey lawmaker.
Menendez’ was convicted last month on 16 felony counts of bribery and corruption for accepting cash and gold in exchange for using his powerful post to enrich and protect three businessmen and the Egyptian and Qatari governments.
“He’s likely trying to get a pardon or a reduction in his sentence,” said a New Jersey political operative who did not want to be identified.

Commentary:
Bob should have acted faster. He should have paid the Biden crime family from the beginning.
How exactly do you negotiate a presidential pardon? How much is Bob offering to pay Quo Pro Joe Biden for this pardon so that the two of them can remain above the law?
Joe might as well get some of that loot. He's lost even the thin veneer of respectability he and his crime family had. The history books will rank him below LBJ before it's over. And there might be a gold bar or two in the deal.
