A group of Pennsylvania Republicans are demanding that Democratic Sen. John Fetterman either appear on camera and demonstrate he is still capable of doing his job or, failing that, that he resign from his federal office.
Fetterman has been hospitalized for nearly two weeks due to reported clinical depression; little is known about his status as an inpatient at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, though his staff said on Monday that he is "on a path to recovery."
The Washington County, Pa., Republican Party, meanwhile, said in a Facebook post on Monday that it "refuses to take assurances from the Office of the Senator or Democrat operatives that Fetterman is able to carry out his duties as Senator."
"As such, we call upon Senator Fetterman to appear on camera to show us he is alive and well," the post continued, "and if he is unable to do so, we call upon our elected Representatives in Washington, Senator Casey and Congressman Reschenthaler, to intervene immediately."
"Ultimately, if Fetterman is unable or unwilling to carry out his duties as a United States Senator, then we ask for his resignation and call for a special election to be held this year," the group said.

If he resigns or is declared incompetent before August 18, I think they get to have a special election (which the GOP would win). After that, the Governor gets to appoint a replacement, probably his nutty wife.
I heard the demonic presence living in the back of his neck wanted hot cocoa.
These cruel bastards leave that poor man alone, if he is having a bi-polar episode that is private and he has not enough time to heal. Don’t get me wrong I am not a Fetterman suporter just show some compassion for the mentally ill if he is not back in a couple of weeks then start these demands.
not really
she cannot be a witness as to his true condition or available to the media
im betting she will be appointed
I for one do NOT want Shapiro to be in a position to appoint Giselle.
More like drinking with RBG.

Oh ChuckU will allow him to “vote” from the Walter Reed Psych Ward.
Redundant
