Sen. Robert Menendez (D-NJ) “is striking back against new corruption allegations regarding his ties to two Ecuadorian bankers who are accused of defrauding account holders in Ecuador to the tune of $100 million,” the Daily Beast reports.
A Menendez spokeswoman denied the senator had been involved in any quid pro quo: “A year after a false smear campaign was launched against Sen. Menendez, once again we see anonymous sources making outlandish allegations.”
