Reports: South Texas Rep. Henry Cuellar to be indicted by Justice Department

The Justice Department is expected to indict South Texas U.S. Rep. Henry Cuellar on Friday, NBC News reports, citing two sources familiar with the plans. A person familiar with the situation also told Politico that the long-serving Democrat's wife Imelda also is expected to face indictment. Federal authorities raided Cuellar's Laredo home and campaign office in January 2022 as part of a probe into the oil-rich country of Azerbaijan.
