Sen. Fetterman still in treatment, staying up on Senate business
CBS News Local ^ | February 27, 2023

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."

“staying up on Senate business” = flatlining

About as much as some of the others are doing.

His wife and kids come back from Canada??????

He thinks he is visiting with his family, so that's all that really matters.

He also thinks that he is Napoleon.

The Fettman is vegged out. Democrats don’t care and Senate Aides do all the work anyway. Dems still have a 50+1 Senate advantage with Harris, so his absence won’t make a difference unless there are some procedural issues where Harris can’t vote. He’ll cast his vote however his handlers tell him if he returns to the Senate, brain dead or not.

We are so screwed here in PA. Going to a meeting tonight with school board candidates. I want to focus on that now. My school board is corrupt.

“His staff is doing his job. Much like biden.”

Same thing with the other brain dead, imbecile senator from Pennsylvania, Bob Casey Jr.

It’s amazing to see a state have not one but TWO certifiable retards represented in the senate. But at least Fetterman can use the stroke as an excuse for his mental condition. What is Casey’s excuse? /spit

For all intents and purposes, those terms kind of mean the same thing!

He is as perfectly capable as any other Senator of not reading what they are voting on.

They’re feeding Senate business to him intravenously.

John Fetterman is brain dead and living only on a respirator. The “sudden headache” was a brain aneurysm, and most voluntary muscular control has ceased.

He is essentially a vegetable.

“He’s dead, Jim.”

Q: What/Who is the source that reports he’s dead or incapacitated?

A: There is no source, none.

Yet you all buy it. Pathetic, even if it turns out to be true. I give no credence to the “report from no one” whatsoever.

He’s in the produce section, between the broccoli and the lettuce.
