Billion With a ‘B’: Did Menendez Provide Special Favors to HookerGate Donor?

A sex scandal is quite often more than just a sex scandal, and the emerging story of the connection between embattled Sen.

In the 17th Paragraph, She Mentions That the Corrupt Mayor Is a Democrat

Kate Zernike of the New York Times: TRENTON — To measure the decay here in New Jersey’s capital, residents could have counted the unfilled public pools, the shuttered libraries and police stations, the block after block of boarded-up stores and homes.
