AIPAC is the last refuge of Congressional scoundrels

"Mr. Menendez received enthusiastic applause addressing Aipac, the prominent Israel advocacy group, this month; it has contributed to his legal defense fund and has privately pressed other Israel-oriented donors to do the same.

By the end of 2014, Mr. Menendez had raised more than $200,000 for his legal fund — nearly a quarter of all its receipts — from political donors who have also given to pro-Israel political action committees, according to an examination of financial documents filed by the Robert Menendez Legal Expense Trust."
