Concerns Mount Over Senator John Fetterman's Health and Fitness for Office
- Last week, Pennsylvania Senator John Fetterman met with teachers union representatives in his Washington office, where the meeting quickly deteriorated.
- The meeting's breakdown followed ongoing concerns about Fetterman's mental health stemming from his 2022 stroke and subsequent depression, as well as a 2024 letter warning he abandoned his recovery plan.
- During the meeting, Fetterman repeated himself, shouted, slammed his hands on a desk, and questioned why others were mad at him, which rattled the teachers and caused a staff member to cry.
- Adam Jentleson, Fetterman’s former chief of staff, wrote that over nine months Fetterman dismantled an agreed early-warning system while showing paranoia, reckless driving, and isolating behavior.
- These recent interactions and reports intensify scrutiny about Fetterman's fitness for office amid criticism from Democrats and ongoing debate over his cooperation with Trump and policy stances.
