HARRISBURG, Pa. (CBS) -- Pennsylvania Sen. John Fetterman remains in the hospital to receive treatment for clinical depression but is staying up to date on Senate business, his communications director Joe Calvello said in a statement Monday.
Fetterman checked himself into Walter Reed National Military Medical Center on Feb. 15 to receive treatment.
"John is doing well, working with the wonderful doctors, and remains on a path to recovery," Calvello said. "He is visiting with staff and family daily, and his staff are keeping him updated on Senate business and news. Our team is moving full speed ahead and working tirelessly for the people of Pennsylvania. Just last week we opened a new office in Erie and will be opening several more offices in the coming weeks."
"We understand the intense interest in John's status and especially appreciate the flood of well-wishes," Calvello added. "However, as we have said this will be a weeks-long process and while we will be sure to keep folks updated as it progresses, this is all there is to give by way of an update."

Imagine an arguement between Fetterman and Biden? Include Kamala for some more fun.

I guess Weekend at Bernie's attempt at humor was really foreshadowing current events.

No one returns to normal life after the shrinks get a hold of them. The main function of psychiatry, besides creating serial killers and mass murderers is locking up elderly parents so the kids can get their $ without waiting for them to die.
Guaranteed, Fetterman is there so he can be held incommunicado. He’s likely in a vegetative state after a major stroke.

Does anyone really believe that he is “staying up to date on Senate business” while he is wearing a straitjacket in a rubber room?

( Dementia Joe is Not My President)
To: MMusson
“The hereditary Emperor is nearly dead and has been for many centuries. In the last moments of his dying coma he was locked in a stasis field which keeps him in a state of perpetual unchangingness. All his heirs are now long dead, and this means that without any drastic political upheaval, power has simply and effectively moved a rung or two down the ladder, and is now seen to be vested in a body that used to act simply as advisers to the Emperor—an elected governmental assembly headed by a President elected by that assembly. In fact it vests in no such place. The President in particular is very much a figurehead—he wields no real power whatsoever. He is apparently chosen by the government, but the qualities he is required to display are not those of leadership but those of finely judged outrage. For this reason the President is always a controversial choice, always an infuriating but fascinating character. His job is not to wield power but to draw attention away from it. On those criteria Zaphod Beeblebrox is one of the most successful Presidents the Galaxy has ever had—he has already spent two of his ten presidential years in prison for fraud. Very very few people realize that the President and the Government have virtually no power at all, and of these few people only six know whence ultimate political power is wielded. Most of the others secretly believe that the ultimate decision-making process is handled by a computer. They couldn’t be more wrong.”
