U.S. Sen. Robert Menendez (D-NJ) said he was “outraged” and proclaimed that “I will be vindicated and they will be exposed,” referring to his federal indictment from the U.S. Department of Justice today.

“For nearly three years I’ve lived under a Justice Department cloud and today I am outraged that this cloud has not been lifted,” Menendez told a room full of supporters and members of the media at the Newark Hilton.
“I’m outraged that prosecutors at the Justice Department were tricked into starting this investigation three years ago with false allegations by those who have a political motive to silence me, but I will not be silenced. I’m confident – at the end of the day – I will be vindicated and they will be exposed.”
