Fox News analyst Gregg Jarrett said Democratic Sen. Robert Menendez of New Jersey has to explain “smoking gun evidence” in his upcoming bribery trial.

The Justice Department unsealed an indictment against Menendez and his wife, Nadine, on three counts Friday, according to a release by the United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York. Menendez and his wife allegedly received cash and gold bars from three New Jersey businessmen in return for aiding the Egyptian government, according to the indictment.

“The trouble here is the smoking gun evidence is going to be incredibly hard for Menendez to explain when they raided his home,” Jarrett told Fox Business host Larry Kudlow. “He has a treasure trove – cash stuffed in envelopes jammed in clothing with his name embroidered on it. And here’s the thing, incriminating fingerprints and DNA show who gave it to them, so he can’t just say, ‘hey, this came from a legitimate source.’ He’s stuck with this.”

Menendez announced he would step down “temporarily” as chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations committee in the wake of the indictment.

“He’s been dogged by bribery and corruption allegations his entire political career,” Jarrett said. “But this indictment, 38 pages, Larry, stunningly detailed about how Menendez and his wife used his powerful public office and influence to betray U.S. government military secrets to Egypt, confer benefits in exchange for cold hard cash.”

Menendez faced trial in 2017 over corruption allegations that ended with a hung jury.

IMPORTANT NOTE TO WND READERS: Believe it or not, today’s high priests of climate-change apocalypse are correct in predicting that in just a few short years, the earth will become miserable, wretched and almost uninhabitable by human beings. But the grim future they envision won’t come about because of “catastrophic climate change,” but rather, because of the implementation of their completely insane and truly catastrophic agenda.

As Greenpeace co-founder Dr. Patrick Moore recently admitted, “If they actually achieve Net Zero, at least 50% of the population would die of hunger and disease.” Likewise, writes energy expert and author Alex Epstein: “Today’s proposed policies to rapidly eliminate fossil fuel use would, if fully implemented, have truly apocalyptic consequences – making the world an impoverished, dangerous, and miserable place for most people.”

Question: When the scientific case for global warming apocalypse consists primarily of a 1-degree Celsius rise in temperature over more than 130 years, what explains the obsession with an imminent, climate-caused end of the world?

Although many groups have been drawn into the Climate Change Cult – from the news media (which has warned of climate catastrophe, either global warming or a “new ice age,” for over a century!), to innocent school kids indoctrinated by hysterical leftist teachers, to liberal Democrats who claim “climate change” will destroy the earth in a few years – the REAL villains are the national and global elites who KNOW the apocalyptic global warming religion is just a cruel hoax, but promote and exploit it as a means of accomplishing their ultimate goal: Transforming and ruling the world.

The heart and soul of today’s bizarre, pagan climate-change religion, and the global elites’ strategies for using it to rule all of mankind, is powerfully exposed and illuminated in the September issue of WND’s critically acclaimed monthly Whistleblower magazine, an issue titled “CULT OF THE CLIMATE APOCALYPSE: The elites’ breathtaking strategy for ruling the world.” WHISTLEBLOWER is available in both the popular print edition and a state-of-the-art digital version, either single issues or discounted annual subscriptions.
