Is John Fetterman brain dead?

[P1tchblack]

If John Cardillo (who?) is be told (anonymously) that Fetterman is brain dead, it HAS to be true. 

You don't actually believe that Fetterneck is holed up at Walter Reed because he's got a case of the sads

Whether or not that is true doesn't change my comment.  Why would anyone believe an anonymous report from a random Twitter person?

However....

Stroke survivors may have a higher risk of developing depression or another mood disorder within the first year, according to new research that compared their risk to the general public as well as people who survived a heart attack.


Past research shows depression is common after stroke, affecting nearly one-third of survivors. For the new study, researchers wanted to dig deeper and see how stroke impacts other mental disorders.

The study, published Wednesday in the American Heart Association journal Stroke, focused on 86,111 people in Danish hospitals from 2004 to 2018 with no history of mental health disorders who had a stroke.

It found that stroke survivors had a 15% risk of developing a mood disorder, primarily depression, within the first year. This risk corresponded to an approximately 2.3-fold increased risk compared with matched individuals from the Danish general population. Stroke survivors also had an increased risk for other mental health problems, including substance abuse disorders and stress and anxiety disorders, as well as brain disorders such as dementia. But these conditions were less common.

I don't know.  I'm leaning toward him NOT being braindead.  If my math is correct, this would be time number 4,986, 812th time that Twitter has been wrong.. This week.

John Fetterman blasts Democrats' 'recreational cruelty' after arrest of Lauren Boebert's son - 

Sen. John Fetterman reached across the partisan aisle Wednesday and defended a Republican colleague from “recreational cruelty” on social media.

The Pennsylvania Democrat noted the arrest of Rep. Lauren Boebert’s son but chided the minions, presumably mostly liberals like himself, celebrating the Republican’s family woes.

“This is a family in crisis and the recreational cruelty I see on social media needs to be out of bounds,” Mr. Fetterman wrote on X.

Tyler Boebert, the 18-year-old son of the firebrand Colorado Republican, was arrested Tuesday and faces multiple felony counts on property-theft and vehicle-trespass charges.

There was predictable cheering among progressives who love to hate Ms. Boebert, which Mr. Fetterman called out Wednesday afternoon.

“I know the impact this has on children. I'm calling for restraint because cruelty has substantial collateral damage. We can't ever forget that they didn't sign up for this,” he wrote.

Maybe Fetterman learned his lesson when he put a shotgun to an innocent black man's chest as he was jogging down the street?

If Boebert's son is guilty of what he's accused of then he shouldn't be immune for ridicule and sh*t-talk. He's not a child.

He's 18, not Hunter's age, but if ya dish it out ya gotta be prepared to take it.  I appreciate Fetterman wanting to keep family off limits, but when you're doing crime and you're the son of a lightning rod figure in congress?  Comes with the territory in 2024.  This isn't 1961 when the Kennedys could keep Teddy hidden from the limelight.

There’s a $1,000,000 earmark in the omnibus bill for an LGBTQ center where people have bdsm sex parties.

After @libsoftiktok & I exposed it, the earmarks’ sponsor wants to remove it from the bill.

There’s just one problem, it’s stuck in the bill we are voting on this week!?‍♂️ https://t.co/R28hWWjXbk

John Fetterman is losing his mind because Libs of TikTok exposed him for requesting an earmark for taxpayer funded s*x parties.

John Fetterman Expresses Disgust With Senate Colleagues for Letting ‘Sleazeball’ Menendez Stay Amid Foreign Bribery Scandal

Senator John Fetterman (D-PA) is continuing to call on Senator Bob Menendez (D-NJ) to leave the upper chamber of Congress amid his foreign bribery scandal and is fed up with his colleagues for not doing the same.

In remarks made to Manu Raju that aired on CNN’s Inside Politics Monday, Fetterman said that it was “clear that my colleagues want to keep him [Menendez] around.”

“And now we have his trial in less than two months and that’s going to handle it,” he observed.


“What does it say about this institution that he’s still serving in here?” asked Raju.

“I don’t know what it says other than that they’re just okay with having a sleazeball in the Senate,” replied Fetterman.

In an ensuing panel discussion on Inside Politics, Raju reminded the audience that Menendez was still receiving classified briefings and wondered aloud why Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) hasn’t called on him to resign.

“Well traditionally, members who are indicted, criminal charges, they, in the House particularly, they lose committee assignments — he hasn’t lost those here — but they can remain members. And of course, Menendez went through this before and he ended up being acquitted. He got his job back, he got his post back on Foreign Relations,” noted Punchbowl News’ John Bresnahan.

“Much different case,” interjected Raju.

“A much different case but he rolled right — allegedly, if you’re the government, the Justice Department — he rolled right from that into this current corruption scheme. Now, like Schumer got beat up over this last week, reporters were pressing him. He’s not only on Foreign Relations, he’s on a national security task force, which is kind of, you know, why is he doing this?” responded Bresnahan. “So I mean, look, he has the right to go in front of a jury and present his case, you know. But there is pressure to have him resign, but leadership is never going to do, they’re never going to — Schumer is never going to do it.”

No clue what this has to do with Walter Reed and depression, but good for Fetterman to speak the truth.

Dude was brain dead 18 months ago. Maybe his stroke did him some good.

Menendez should be looking at a short drop and a sudden stop for his actions, if proven true.

Who here has hidden cash and gold from foreign entities in their suits buried in a closet? I’m guessing nobody.

I try not to miss an opportunity to point out Twitter/social media/conspiracy theory failures.

Last short drop I watched was Saddam exiting this world.  Led him up the stairs, noose around his neck and goodbye.  There are so many traitors in government but they could start the ball rolling with sellout Bob.

May as well bring back hangings for all criminals since Zig believes lynching was such a massive scourge in this country

A new exposé about Sen. John Fetterman's, D-Pa., time on Capitol Hill set social media ablaze on Friday.

The report raised questions about alleged tensions with his wife, Gisele, over his health regimen, his stance on Israel and her reported run-ins with his staff.

In "All By Himself: John Fetterman insists he is in good health, but staffers past and present say they no longer recognize the man they once knew," New York Magazine’s Intelligencer lays out recollections from current and former staff members who worked for the Pennsylvania Democrat. In May 2022, Fetterman suffered a serious stroke mid-Senate campaign against Dr. Mehmet Oz.

The article relates several reported instances, including a February 2023 situation at a Democratic caucus retreat at the Library of Congress.

A staffer told the outlet that he received a message questioning how Fetterman was doing, as he was found sitting at a table alone, silently drinking a soda.

The report went on to claim the lawmaker was "nearly struck by a car" and found "wandering" Capitol Hill.

Physicians at George Washington University Hospital later determined he was severely dehydrated, and had not had a second stroke as feared.

An ensuing discussion with then-Sen. Sherrod Brown, D-Ohio, found Fetterman to be nearly "catatonic" when Brown tried to talk with him. Soon after, on Feb. 15, he was admitted to Walter Reed Medical Center.

After being discharged, Fetterman "threw himself into" his Senate work and became more vociferous than ever on issues like the Israel-Gaza conflict and other topics that have rankled his Democratic colleagues.

He also took a leading role in calling for the ouster of now-former Sen. Robert Menendez, D-N.J., amid corruption allegations.

"Former and current staffers paint a picture of an erratic senator who has become almost impossible to work for and whose mental-health situation is more serious and complicated than previously reported," the article read.

After staffers wrote a letter about Fetterman's "gutting betrayal" supporting Israel, the report went on to allege Gisele confronted him about Jerusalem "bombing refugee camps — how can you support this?"

Gisele reportedly also went to staffers with her concerns, while a Senate physician in December 2023 reported him "acting bizarrely" near the Senate subway, while he had not had bloodwork in months.

So back when he had a stroke his staff and the Dems said ahe's fine and very sharp. Now that he's somewhat coherent they say he's erratic.

Don’t you dare stray a few steps away from the dem party.

This is laughable and sad at the same time. Their party is falling apart.

If you go back in the two threads on him, many of us noticed these things back in 2022. Same for Biden back in 2020 and there are certainly more threads on him.

Both were pushed by family members and party leaders. The ends justify the means.

There's pressure in politics?????

I’m just looking at your party pitch. Apparently he was useful when he was brain dead. Now he is not since there is some clarity.

I’m not sure there needs to be more clarification.

It’s kind of a medical miracle. Someone recovering from a stroke and becoming somewhat smarter.

What would it take for you?
