WASHINGTON — At John Fetterman’s desk in the Senate chamber, there is a newly installed monitor that rises or lowers, depending on whether he sits or stands, and provides closed captioning so he can follow the proceedings. At the center dais, a custom desk stand has been built to accommodate the same technology for when he takes his shifts presiding over the Senate. The sergeant-at-arms has arranged for live audio-to-text transcription for the committees on which Fetterman serves, and plans to expand the service to all Senate hearings.
But his adjustment to serving in the Senate has been made vastly more difficult by the strains of his recovery, which left him with a physical impairment and serious mental health challenges that have rendered the transition extraordinarily challenging — even with the accommodations that have been made to help him adapt.
The latest health scare convinced his staff that Fetterman needs a better plan to take care of himself, both physically and emotionally.
Fetterman declined to be interviewed for this story. But aides and confidants describe his introduction to the Senate as a difficult period, filled with unfamiliar duties that are taxing for someone still in recovery: meetings with constituents, attending caucus and committee meetings, appearing in public at White House events and at the State of the Union address, as well as making appearances in Pennsylvania.

What kind of backdoor political crap does his life partner have in store for us?
With half of his brain, which is all he has left, tied behind his back...
Which is why he should not be serving in The Senate.
Fetterman declined to be interviewed for this story.
Probably because he is incapable of speaking.
Even Stevie Wonder could see this coming.
Repubs...Take a vote on something important....A Senator has to be in Chambers for any vote.
Next time you are screaming at Fuck Joe Biden or any other loser RAT of either party, remember Pennsylvanians elected a vegetable.
Your problem is with your “fellow” citizens.
Pennsylvania voters deserve every bit of this. Even more reason to root for the Chiefs.
I'm guessing that his exact words were, "Story not I for now interview am wanting good evening!"
Apologies in advance for anyone who has suffered a stroke, and been plagued with language difficulties - but Fetterman is ridiculous!
Regards,
No one will notice the difference
He’s a libtard
Goodnight everybody.
I have an in-law that voted for him. She said he will get better. go figure’
Swiss cheese brain crawling with larvae.
Quasimodo is Not long for this world. RIP john. Demented Josh Shapirooooo will appoint demented wife to take over. How will the PA voters take to it. I would like a Biden/Fettermen ticket in 2024. Dumb and Dumberer. Maybe they can be the first comotose all inclusive presidential ticket for the Dems. Slogan “Cadavers are people too.” Like Wilson their wives would run the show.
Wait a minute! The title reads as if he was a Senator and THEN had a stroke. He (and his wife) ran for this seat after his stroke while knowing he was not physically up for the job!
Did she say, “He’s one of us!”. I heard that a lot from Pennsylvania blue collars at local bars near the PENNSYLVANIA\WV state line. They had bought into Fetterman’s “look”, he was just a “blue collar guy”.
So much for that doctor affidavit that Fetterman was fit to serve in the senate. BTW, Biden is overdue his annual checkup.
Pathetic. Dims will vote in a zombie as long as it votes the “correct” way.
