We have a colleague in the Senate that's actually done much more sinister and serious kinds of things. Senator Menendez. He needs to go. And if you are going to expel Santos, how can you allow somebody like Menendez to remain in the Senate...? Menendez is really a Senator for Egypt, not New Jersey. I really think he needs to go.
John Fetterman is not at the DNC and I gotta say I'm loving his character arc
Senator John Fetterman, in an apparent effort to fulfill The Babylon Bee prophecy, has decided to skip the 2024 Democratic National Convention.
The Hamas kids and their public representatives were apparently too much for Mr. Fetterman. Though he's playing coy here and just going with the "I want to spend time with my kids" approach, which is just lovely.
‘I've got three young kids, and they're out of school,' the Pennsylvania senator said of his absence this week in Chicago, waving off the suggestion that he might not be welcome there. ‘That's four days I can spend with my children.'
John, we know you're just out here making Bee jokes come true on purpose.
Democrat Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) has declared that he would vote “from an open mind and an informed opinion” on President Donald Trump’s cabinet picks. ...
“I believe that it’s appropriate and the responsibility of a U.S. Senator to have a conversation with President-elect Trump’s nominees,” Fetterman wrote in his post on X.
“That’s why I met with Elise Stefanik and Pete Hegseth, just wrapped with Tulsi Gabbard, and look forward to my meetings with others soon.
“My votes will come from an open mind and an informed opinion after having a conversation with them.
“That’s not controversial, it’s my job,” Fetterman wrote.
Calling your own constituents dipshits is probably not a winning strategy.

Your typical Green & Libertarian voters won't vote at all if their ticket is not on the ballot anyway.
Could be, but the Dems sure fight hard to keep the Greens off the ballot.
Speaking of John Fetterman, the casual dresser is wandering near the borders of the Democrat reservation and corporate media doesn’t like it. CNN ran the story yesterday headlined, “MAGA’s new darling: Dem. John Fetterman?”
... Details were oddly unavailable. None of the stories reporting Fetterman’s trip to Mar-a-Lago said precisely when the meeting happened. But apparently it was over the weekend. In any event, John Fetterman, who sponsored the Laken Riley Act, just became the first Democrat Senator since the election to meet with President Trump.
When last week a reporter asked the vaccine-injured Senator why he was going to Mar-a-Lago, Fetterman joked, “so Trump can make me the Pope of Greenland.” It was pretty funny. Fetterman might be the only Democrat to defend Trump’s Greenland idea, calling it uncontroversial and comparing it to the Louisiana Purchase. ...
Trump’s support for Fetterman isn’t surprising; it is politically sound. Trump may soon need some Democrat allies, given the Never-Trumper hostility he still faces in the McConnell wing of the Senate GOP.
Fetterman is not some kind of insta-conservative. He still holds countless crazy progressive positions, like letting boys play girls’ sports, but he’s shattering all the modern rules. Before November, any Democrat straying off the progressive plantation like this would be immediately destroyed politically, as a warning to any other Democrats who might start getting bright ideas.
So, if the Democrats don’t destroy Fetterman for his sudden and unexpected betrayal by talking to Trump, it will be more evidence his party has become leaderless in the wake of its recent shellacking.
