Fetterman's Chief of staff unexpectedly resigns: Report
Just The News ^ | May 20, 2026 | Misty Severi

Posted on 05/20/2026 9:38:47 PM PDT by Red Badger

Pennsylvania Democratic Sen. John Fetterman's chief of staff resigned Wednesday and will have her final official day in the coming weeks, Axios reported.

Cabelle St. John, who has served in the post since 2025, has worked on Fetterman's team since he first came to Washington approximately three-and-a-half years ago.

Fetterman has not confirmed St. John's exit but did not deny it in a text to Axios.

The news comes as Fetterman's office sees high turnover because former aides are frustrated with his continual support for Israel in its war with Iran and friendlier approach toward President Donald Trump.

Fetterman is known to be one of the most bipartisan members of Congress, siding with Republicans on votes related to Iran, border security and the construction of the White House ballroom. But he has declined to switch parties and primarily votes with the Democrats.

Pennsylvania Ping!

Please ping me with articles of interest.

FReepmail me to be added to the list.

My favorite Senator needs to find a MAGA alpha male to succeed her-who-must-not-be-named.

Fetterman moulted a crepitous layer of skin.

Good riddance, I’d say.

Guess his Democratic minder is quitting out of frustration at their inability to control the Senator…. and tow the party line.

I am wondering if the threats and pressure by the dangerously violent woke left is frightening people from staff to judges to lawmakers, etc

There is an easy fix. Change parties and get staff hired by the senate majority caucus.

LOL - they expected the left-wingnut suffering brain damage and ended up with a fairly reasonable person - no wonder they’re leaving....

It is so common that in today’s business world, the office staff seem to think they get a vote in management decisions. They tend to get all pissy if their ideas are not followed.

That attitude is not new. A similar scenario is related in the Bible during David’s exile from Jerusalem when his son Absalom rebelled against him.

2 Samuel 17.............

23 When Ahithophel saw that his advice had not been followed, he saddled his donkey and set out for his house in his hometown. He put his house in order and then hanged himself. So he died and was buried in his father’s tomb.
