A new charge against United States Senator Bob Menendez has accused the Democrat of serving as an unregistered agent of Egypt, heightening the legal jeopardy he already faces.Menendez, 69, and his wife Nadine were previously indicted on federal charges related to allegations they accepted bribes in exchange for using the senator’s official position to benefit the Egyptian government.But a superseding indictment, filed in a Manhattan federal court on Thursday, raised the stakes further: It added a charge that Menendez conspired to act as “an agent of a foreign principal”.
