Hey, this one must have REALLY pissed off the wrong people and voting the wrong way a few too many times.
It isn't just a sitting U.S. Senator, but a Democrat under a Democratic Administration at that! (The Dems have no corner on the 'overlooking stuff' market of course, and seems to run common to who is in power..which makes this more interesting, indeed!)
I know what it is. The Senate refuses to vote on Holder's replacement and Holder won't leave until he's properly replaced. So he's mad and acting out?

Whether true or not on that last thought? I'll bet this DOES motivate the Senate to move on getting Holder replaced a little quicker. He's getting restless, no doubt.
Ahhh well. 1 down, 99 to go. :)

Washington (CNN)The Justice Department is preparing to bring criminal corruption charges against New Jersey Sen. Robert Menendez, alleging he used his Senate office to push the business interests of a Democratic donor and friend in exchange for gifts.

People briefed on the case say Attorney General Eric Holder has signed off on prosecutors' request to proceed with charges, CNN has learned exclusively. An announcement could come within weeks. Prosecutors are under pressure in part because of the statute of limitation on some of the allegations.
