Senator John Fetterman of Pennsylvania voiced his support for President Trump's proposed 20-point peace plan to end the war between Hamas and Israel, as the conflict approaches its two-year anniversary.
On Sunday, the Senator posted on X, "Good morning to everyone except all the protesters who aren’t protesting for Hamas to accept the peace deal."
On Friday, Senator Fetterman posted an image of a headline that read "Hamas says it agrees to release all Israeli hostages under Trump Gaza plan," writing, "Hamas must choose peace or its own destruction.Send the hostages home, now. As an unapologetic supporter of Israel, the Gaza War must end to have peace and security for Israel and Palestinians.Politics aside, credit to @POTUS’ peace plan to get to this encouraging point."
He also posted an image of another headline that read, "CNN's Dana Bash Wonders Why Pro-Palestine Movement Isn't Pressuring Hamas to Accept Trump Deal," writing, "For those protesters: Hamas > Peace No flotilla, blocking a highway or disrupting public events demanding Hamas to take the peace deal."
Senator Fetterman is one of the few Congressional Democrats willing to proudly voice support for Israel, as his party has begun to drift away from that position.
President Trump indicated on Sunday that negotiations with Hamas have begin going well, writing on Truth Social, "There have been very positive discussions with Hamas, and Countries from all over the World (Arab, Muslim, and everyone else) this weekend, to release the Hostages, end the War in Gaza but, more importantly, finally have long sought PEACE in the Middle East."
"These talks have been very successful, and proceeding rapidly. The technical teams will again meet Monday, in Egypt, to work through and clarify the final details. I am told that the first phase should be completed this week, and I am asking everyone to MOVE FAST. I will continue to monitor this Centuries old 'conflict.' TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE OR, MASSIVE BLOODSHED WILL FOLLOW — SOMETHING THAT NOBODY WANTS TO SEE!"

Pennsylvania Ping!
Please ping me with articles of interest.
FReepmail me to be added to the list.
Credit where credit is due... By refusing to jump on the Dems’ TDS crazy train, Fetterman is staking out a centrist position that will make him difficult to beat in PA. Smart man.
They are terrorists, Senator. They are not going to praise anyone’s peace plan.
Fetterman needs to leave the democrat party…….he’s got no future with that satan owned bunch of demons.
Vance/Fetterman 2028. Nah.
The Little Woman might be about ready to pack her bags and separate from Fetternan, unless she can accept his new attitude about politics.
If he truly does have a moniker of sense, one has to wonder what he sees in the Democrats party.
Fetterman was once a typical “progressive” Democrat mayor. I don’t think it was the stroke that changed him (much). Fetterman was horrified by the brutal and vile October 7, 2023 Hamas attack on Israel.
That woke him up, so to speak.
Oct. 7 was ghastly. I don’t know how anyone could not be changed by that. Greta wasn’t, nor were Democrats. It’s incomprehensible to me how some who claim to be civilized are completely unaffected. Or have even doubled down on their support for the animals who did that.
He has a very good chance of being shot at himself for not following the party line. Good luck to him. He’s a Dim, but a more rational one than most, so I’d imagine that the extreme left-wing elements of his party are planning for his death at this very moment.
Unfortunately, there won’t be a “Menshevik/Bolshevik” murderous fight to clear up the Dim’s true plan for our future.
I think you mean ‘modicum’
