Original Note:
Henry Cuellar (D-TX) was indicted on bribery and money laundering charges for allegedly taking $600,000 from Azerbaijan oil and gas corporations in exchange for official acts. There is no evidence Joe Biden is coercing the DOJ to indict or prosecute Cuellar. https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/congress/doj-expected-announce-indictment-texas-democratic-rep-henry-cuellar-so-rcna150567#:~:text=According%20to%20the%20indictment%2C%20from%202014%20to%202021%2C%20the%20Cuellars%20allegedly%20accepted%20roughly%20%24600%2C000%20in%20bribes%20from%20the%20two%20foreign%20entities%20in%20exchange%20for%20the%20congressman%20performing%20official%20acts.
