| [Washington Examiner] Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) claimed he was not surprised former New York GOP Rep. George Santos was removed from the House of Representatives on Friday but that it should be a warning sign for a senator who is doing "more sinister" crimes. Fetterman said Sen. Bob Menendez (D-NJ) is more of a senator for Egypt than he is for New Jersey after Menendez was accused of violating the Foreign Agents Registration Act through his work on behalf of the government of Egypt without registering as a foreign agent. Fetterman has led the charge in getting the senator removed from Congress. "Sen. Menendez needs to go, and if you are going to expel Santos, how can you allow somebody like Menendez to remain in the Senate?" Fetterman asked on ABC’s The View on Friday. "He has the right for his day in court and all that, but he doesn’t have the right to have those kinds of votes and things that — that’s not a right. And I think we need to make that kind of decision to send him out." Fetterman initially called for Menendez to resign after he and his wife were indicted on federal bribery charges but renewed the call after he was accused of working for Egypt. He also claimed he would support a vote to expel Menendez if the senator did not resign. Menendez and his wife have pleaded not guilty to the charges.
