Uncle Fester had a stroke one year ago today.

Sen. John Fetterman's (D-PA) team is calling out detractors who mocked the senator's health struggles while questioning witnesses at a hearing on Tuesday.
The junior Pennsylvania senator's team says they have been "clear and open" about his "auditory processing challenges" as Fetterman recovers from a stroke he suffered last year, adding that doctors "expect his abilities to improve."
“For many months, we have been clear and open about the fact that John still faces challenges with auditory processing challenges as a result of his stroke. His doctors expect his abilities to improve, but in the meantime, if pathetic losers want to make fun of someone who struggles with speech as the result of a stroke, that’s up to them,” Joe Calvello, communications director for Fetterman, told the Washington Examiner.
While questioning the former Silicon Valley Bank CEO and other bank executives, Fetterman struggled at times with his speech when asking whether they believe it is "a running joke" that the government will always bail out a bank when it fails.
Clips of the Pennsylvania Democrat questioning the former bank executives circulated online, and some people mocked Fetterman's speech patterns during the exchange.
Fetterman has been back working in the Senate for a month, after he checked himself into Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in February for treatment for clinical depression. In an interview with CBS Sunday Morning last month, Fetterman discussed his battle with depression.
"It’s like, you just won the biggest, you know, race in the country," Fetterman said. "And the whole thing about depression is that objectively you may have won, but depression can absolutely convince you that you actually lost. And that’s exactly what happened, and that was the start of a downward spiral."
Fetterman was elected in November 2022, only months after he suffered a nearly fatal stroke. The junior Pennsylvania senator uses special closed-captioning tools and professional transcribers in real time to assist him in his duties in the Senate.
He’s just there so his staff can get their free cash
Between Word salad Harris and babbling Biden, Fett is practically a statesmen.
He’s non-functioning, that’s his problem in a nutshell.
“auditory processing challenges” — that’s just a liberal euphemism for “full retard.”
Just like “gender affirming care” is a liberal euphemism for irreversibly mutilating children.
And “migrant” is a liberal euphemism for invader.
And “comprehensive immigration reform” is a liberal euphemism for “let them all in with no restrictions - erase the border.”
Summary from Fetterman’s team:
For months we have been clear, he shouldn’t be a Senator as he can’t understand things that a normal 5th grader would. So lay off, we wanted him to remain in the hospital but you kept saying where is he. Now that we have him out, you’re complaining that he is nearly retarded.
He was struggling? I didn’t notice. He sounds like everyone I’ve ever heard from PA, especially Penn State!! LOL
O-H-
Doh!
I’ll bet Gyorgy Schwartz funded his campaign.
He gets a response from them, cause they wanna keep their jobs
Tool bags!
Pennsylvania voters have to be some of the smartest! /s
And illegally exercise his power.
“Auditory processing challenges”? WTF? It’s the one providing the incoherent “auditory”, and the only “processing challenges” are those experienced by the audience...
He just got elected to one of the cushiest jobs on the planet and got off his Daddy's payroll for the first time in his life.
He has free access to the top medical care in the country at no cost to himself. The job doesn't require that he actually does anything. He has to fool the voters only once every six years (with full support of the deep state media) and even if he fails to do so, he will have a lifetime pension better than most of us could even dream about.
Why could he possibly be depressed?
Soros was never “Schwartz”.
His father changed the family name — because the father also rejected and hated Judaism — before George Soros was born.
But, yes, I don’t doubt Soros funded the campaign.
I would bet money on it. Soros has always hated this country.
He is only useful as a checkmark on the vote in the senate. So is Feinstein. Without them, there is no majority

No John, that was real, dude. You DID lose. Filthy dirty democrats cheated for you. You don’t belong in that Senate seat and I hope it makes you crazy.
