Senator John Fetterman of Pennsylvania has officially checked himself into Walter Reed National Military Medical Center for treatment for severe depression.
In a statement issued by Fetterman’s chief of staff, Adam Gentleson, Fetterman has suffered from depression “throughout his life” and the burdens that come with the senator’s life have not made it any easier.
Anyone with two brain cells who has seen Fetterman’s ten minutes since running against Dr. Oz for Senate last year could tell the man is physically or mentally unfit to serve in any public office, his health still somewhat taboo to discuss. His own people said that his “special needs” interfered with regular Senate activities.
I’m not saying to attack or insult the man, but someone is behaving like that Everything was fine Honestly dishonest before today.
According to Gentleson, “On Monday, John was evaluated by Dr. Brian P. Monahan, attending physician to the United States Congress. Yesterday, Dr. Monahan recommended inpatient care at Walter Reed. John accepted and is receiving treatment on a voluntary basis.”
It’s worth noting that Fetterman was hospitalized for a “headache” not a week ago, and not another stroke.
“After examining John, the doctors at Walter Reed said John was getting the care he needed and would soon be back on his own,” Gentleson said.

Ongoing issues
Throughout the 2022 midterm election cycle, the Democratic establishment and the media have had a hard time hiding the fact that John Fetterman is physically unfit to serve in the US Senate, and yet LT. He was previously serving governor after suffering a major stroke that same year.
If Democrats label their opponent Mehmet Öz a “threat to democracy” and a “threat to public health,” they paint over every Republican who threatens to defeat him in the general election while blatantly comparing him to Adolf Hitler, the same people who parade this wounded and incompetent man around as if his challenges were problems. did
Fetterman’s own wife, Gisele Fetterman, threatened the NBC reporter (far from being a right-wing provocateur).
It’s more difficult for Fetterman’s team of enablers to cover up the obvious; They’re so concerned about their ability to retain power for the Democrats’ ultra-progressive agenda that they’re willing to parade around a man who can’t even grasp basic speech, and instead needs full-time care.

All is not well
Around the same time frame as Fetterman’s hospitalization in early February, reports began to emerge revealing just how bad Fetterman’s condition really was.
Political Insider reports that Fetterman is “struggling to adjust to life in the Senate as he adjusts to hearing problems” as a result of the stroke he suffered. These problems are so severe that Fetterman hears voices that sound like the teachers in the “Peanuts” cartoons.
This is no joke – John Fetterman as an acting US Senator has the ability to vote on taxes, health care, spending and whether or not our nation goes to war.
A report by The New York Times described the lengths to which colleagues, staff and sergeants-at-arms went to help Fetterman with daily tasks. Some who spoke to The Times said it was “extraordinarily challenging”.
How willing are people close to him to push him to keep this position? The only question people need to ask.
