Sen. John Fetterman’s Monday Twitter post celebrating Juneteenth and “Black lives” was mocked by users of the social media platform — who were quick to point out that the Pennsylvania Democrat had once pulled a shotgun on an unarmed black jogger.
“Happy Juneteenth! Today we celebrate emancipation + reflect on the long shadow of systemic racism in America,” Fetterman wrote on the social media platform.
“PA always stands by the unshakeable truth that Black families matter + Black lives matter,” the former mayor of Braddock, Pa., added.

Not just an unarmed jogger, but a completely innocent jogger.
Who cares? He got elected didn’t he? What’s wrong with you people?
REPORTER: Mrs. Fetterman, your son has ascended to high office. I’m sure you’re proud of that! However, since you’re his mother, can you share any insights with us about his unusual clothing influences?
MRS. FETTERMAN: Mwa-mwammm. Mwamwamwaaa. Mwamwaaam-mwamwa
Mwamamwam!
Racist white dems that black dems keep voting for....
Hopefully voters will remember in 2028 when hopefully they vote him out.
You must be joking.

“Fetterman wrote”

Without knowing the circumstances of the gun-pulling, and knowing that he was not charged, I’ll not pass judgment on him for the incident.
Be careful. Articles like this may cause poor John to fall back into Depression and have to go back to the mental hospital for another couple months . . . .
