Dude literally had gold bars at his house, according to authorities.

Now for the deets:

A federal grand jury in New York has returned a sweeping indictment against United States Sen. Bob Menendez, D-N.J., chairman of the powerful Foreign Relations Committee.

Oh, this guy was the chair of the Foreign Relations Committee that oversees all the tax funds we're sending to Ukraine, the country the Uniparty is currently obsessed with while gaining a return on their investments. Cool.

The investigation focused on a luxury car, gold bars and an apartment allegedly received by Menendez and his wife, Nadine Arslanian. His wife was also indicted.

The indictment charges Menendez, 69, and his wife with having a corrupt relationship with three New Jersey businessmen -- Wael Hana, Jose Uribe and Fred Daides.

The indictment accuses Menendez and his wife of accepting hundreds of thousands of dollars of bribes in exchange for using the senator's power and influence to seek to protect and enrich the businessman.

The indictment also alleges the bribes sought to "benefit the Arab Republic of Egypt," which ABC conveniently left out.

"Those bribes included cash, gold, payments toward a home mortgage, compensation for a low-or-no-show job, a luxury vehicle, and other things of value," the indictment said.

Those are rookie tactics, Menendez!

If you wanna play the bribery game, you have to get a wayward son to visit sketchy businessmen in places like China and Ukraine, then have your son call you during the meeting to chat about the "weather" before a lump sum is deposited in your son's bank accounts.

That's how the pros do it!
