| [KGNSTV] According to NBC News, the Justice Department is expected to announce the indictment of Congressman Henry Cuellar. NBC News stated that two sources familiar with the matter informed the outlet of the expected formal charge against the Texas congressman. This comes after Cuellar’s house and campaign officers were raided in Laredo back in January of 2022 as part of a federal investigation into Azerbaijan and a group of U.S. businessmen who have ties to the country, law enforcement said at the time. Since the raid, Cuellar’s office and the congressman have stated that they have been fully cooperating with the investigation. Cuellar is a one-time co-chair of the Congressional Azerbaijan Caucus. At this time, it’s not clear if the indictment is related to the 2022 raid. The Justice Department declined to comment. Shortly after the report came to light, Congressman Cuellar issued a statement.
