The US desperately needs the ability to recall federal representatives.
- All politicians should be recallable at any time.
- Amendment II
"A former campaign staffer said Professional Fascist Dick Sucker Sen. John Fetterman’s single-minded focus on sucking fascist dick came at the exclusion of the progressive positions he ran on in favor of sucking fascist dick." FTFY
- Yes, yes. But, was the dick circumcised?
  
  Oh, it's not just one fascist dick, this dude sucks any fascist dick he can put in his mouth. So I would say it's probably 50/50 lol
WTF happened to this guy? He started out so well, stroke and all.
- Apparently he was always a creep.
  They brought receipts.
  
  Yeah, I think the warning signs were always there, especially the whole "threating a black guy with a fucking shotgun" incident, but people hated Oz (for obvious reasons) and were super excited for a down to earth, progressive, everyday person. He has said the stroke made him more conservative, but honestly he was always kinda a rascist asshole and just used the veneer of an everday working class Philadelphian for optics imo. Even so, he's a massive disappointment and I really hope PA can primary him in ~~2026~~ 2028 for an actual progressive.
- I think a lot of his percieved political views during the campaign were mostly ascribed to him, and he never denied anything hoping that it'd win him the election.
  Well, turned out that he, like any other candidate, will say whatever needs to be said to win.
  But at least he's not Dr Oz.
  
  That's the worst part of this really... the alternative was still far worse.
- It's a problem for anyone entering politics. It takes incredible resolve and character to resist selling out. He just didn't have what it takes.
  
  Ooor like many politicians he just put on a progressive facade for people to vote him, until he got enough influence to sell himself to the highest bidder. And AIPAC pays their prostitutes well.

- Brain damage from the stroke made him a drooling idiot with a flexible knee.
- Maybe that provides cover for him pulling a sinema.
Fetterman posted an opening for a new communications director on Wednesday.
Hire me. I'll gladly issue press releases saying this brain-damaged moron wants to felate Bibi and doesn't give a fuck about anyone else.
The cia and mossad can induce medical emergency like heart attack or stroke via poison. What if his medical episode was a hard line and successful attempt to change his opinions/ positions ? Either that or he has always been a piece of shit or he suffered major brain damage and his shift to fascist turd cutter tongue punching is the main symptom…. Either way it sucks all around. Fuck fetterman
Title is misleading, though the article is accurate.
He shifted right on all policies, agreeing with new immigration laws and being the only Dem to affirm an election denier appointed by Trump. Israel is one small, small piece of his shift to red.
