And I cross-referenced those with open secrets and donations, contributions to members of Congress.
And I believe there is a pattern there, which is why we asked- How did Menendez do in that group?
I will tell you this, that in the SEC documents, there's a deposition of one of the attorneys and there's a series of depositions and the initials RM are in the documents.

So Senator Menendez's hands are all over this.
You know, we turned to Congress.
We said, could you just investigate?
Could you investigate the anti-terrorism legislation done by Senator Menendez?
He's in jail now.

We've begged for hearings.
We can't get hearings on this.
With all of this information, we met with the chief of the money laundering asset recovery section at the Department of Justice, the person who's in charge really ultimately over this fund.

The governing statute says that we're supposed to be treated fairly and equitably.
It's a United States victims of terrorism fund.
In the United States of America, everyone's supposed to be treated equally.
