For a second time, Sen. Bob Menendez faces corruption trial | NewsNation Now

New Jersey Democrat Sen. Bob Menendez goes to trial Monday in Manhattan federal court.

Menendez's lawyers, though, say he stayed within the rules and did nothing illegal. Criminal defense attorney Josh Schiffer joins “NewsNation Now” to break down the case.
