Pennsylvania Republican senatorial nominee Dr. Mehmet Oz told Fox News he will release his medical records to the public by Friday, challenging his opponent Democrat John Fetterman to follow his lead.
Oz has repeatedly urged Fetterman to give Pennsylvanians an "honest" assessment of his health after he suffered a stroke in May, raising questions about his physical and cognitive fitness for office. In an appearance on "America Reports" Thursday, Oz pointed to an editorial published by the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette which called on both candidates to release their medical records to reassure voters and address skepticism about Fetterman's ability to properly "communicate and process information" while in recovery.
"I think that is a rational request," Oz told Fox News host John Roberts. "I am going to release my medical records…as soon as I get them all collected from the hospital. I’m hoping by tonight or tomorrow morning. There is obviously paperwork you have to fill out, even if you are a doctor, but you will have them for the weekend."
Fetterman has accused Oz of taking "cheap shots" about his health and mocking his condition on the campaign trail. Oz, a retired cardiothoracic surgeon, maintained that he has not made light of Fetterman's health battle, saying that as a medical doctor, he respects and feels for patients who go through such incidents. But, he reiterated, voters deserve transparency from Fetterman's campaign about issues pertinent to his health.
"I have tremendous compassion for John Fetterman, recovering from a crippling stroke with heart failure, irregular heartbeats. This is a complex issue and he’s doing his best," Oz said. "I do hope and pray that he does recover fully. But this is not about me or John Fetterman. It is about the voters of Pennsylvania.

John Fetterman’s hometown paper has called on the Pennsylvania Democratic Senate nominee to release his full cognitive tests, saying that debate delays have “raised more questions.”
The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette’s editorial board published a piece on Wednesday, calling on Fetterman and his GOP opponent, Mehmet Oz, to make their medical records available:
"John Fetterman is the most pro-murderer candidate in America. He believes we should be releasing one-third of prisoners from jail," Oz argued. "He does not think life sentences make sense for convicted murderers. He has lobbied countless times to take folks in jail for life and change those outings to get them into the communities again."
Fetterman is a disgusting slob....Have a feeling he’s gonna lose big time.
I dont care about the guys medical records, I care that he wants to release all the murderers, is a crazy wack job, and even hunted down a black jogger with a shotgun!
What if we find out they have the same DNA?
Fetterman is a repulsive and vile creature and won’t win, IMO.
Fetterman will not win IF Pennsylvania has cleaned up their elections .
“… published by the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette which called on both candidates to release their medical records…”
Very strange. The Pgh Post Gazette is as left wing a rag as it gets.

Fetterman’s printed ones equal 189 folders of about 150 sheets each. USBs of them would reach to Bayonne, NJ if laid end to end from his living room at home.
The idiot didn’t have a job until in his 40s,what a slob
