A fuckin' dirty turn coat.

jasoltan.bsky.social•40 days ago

It’s called Lack of O2.

suebachnershow.bsky.social•40 days ago

Fetterman's wife was undocumented immigrant from Brazil ages 7 though 22. Got a green card then & became a citizen in 2009. Theory is, he's kissing the ring to keep wife and kids from getting deported by the new admin. So basically watching out for his own interests and screw PA and democracy.

thejenniwren.teamlh.social•40 days ago

She’s a citizen and can’t be deported.

suebachnershow.bsky.social•40 days ago

True, currently she can't. But perhaps Sen. Fetterman considers that with the next administration the law might change, even for citizens, if at some point they DID live in the US illegally for some amount of time. So he's willing to throw any principles to the wind to cover his family's behind.

vickiebluevoter.bsky.social•40 days ago

Weep Pennsylvania.

oongynoodle.bsky.social•40 days ago

You would prefer no Dems speak or meet with tRump - ever? They should just roll over and let him do as he pleases?
OR
Should they meet with him to present ideas that will help Americans?

thejenniwren.teamlh.social•40 days ago

Rolling over is cosponsoring the undemocratic Laken Riley Act, supporting Stefanik & Rubio, & traveling to MAL to meet with a convicted felon, rapist, sexual predator, liar, & traitor who viciously attacked you & your wife. He’s a fucking traitor.

oongynoodle.bsky.social•40 days ago

Like it or not, tRump will be president again in a week (🤮). Democrats are going to have to deal with him. And -
No politician is going to be 100% what you want him/her to be.

abbij1961.bsky.social•40 days ago

There’s no dealing with a fascist. Whether you like it or not that’s what trump is and this common ground talking point is going to get us screwed. Just ask Neville Chamberlain.

oongynoodle.bsky.social•40 days ago

Yes, he's a fascist. No, I don't like it. For the record,
I didn't say anything about common ground.

thejenniwren.teamlh.social•40 days ago

Bravo 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

thejenniwren.teamlh.social•40 days ago

No they don’t. You need to read Timothy Snyder’s “On Tyranny.” The first rule of fighting fascism is: DO NOT OBEY IN ADVANCE

oongynoodle.bsky.social•40 days ago

Dealing with him is not obeying🙄

gamb7.bsky.social•40 days ago

He thought he was one of the green keepers or starters. Probably had someone tip him $20

thejenniwren.teamlh.social•40 days ago

Good one 😂

artemis46.bsky.social•40 days ago

I wonder what his undocumented immigrant wife thinks about that. 🤔

alexandergreenberg.bsky.social•40 days ago

As a Fetterman hater from the jump: I fucking told you so.

thejenniwren.teamlh.social•40 days ago

I’m trying to get people to adopt my new acronym: FFCFO Fucking Fetterman Can Fuck Off 😂

cll70.bsky.social•40 days ago

I fucking donated to the asshole! What a disappointment. I will horrible for the people of Pennsylvania. Disgusting

thejenniwren.teamlh.social•40 days ago

Many did. And campaigned so hard for him. Traitor.

nduggar.bsky.social•40 days ago

The low IQ meeting the brain damaged.

kymdm.bsky.social•40 days ago

Sold out…… traitor!

Fettermanchin

kristiwalker.bsky.social•40 days ago

Bet he is being blackmailed

128grazer.bsky.social•40 days ago

Yep.

lindarn.bsky.social•40 days ago

Another Joe Manchin

unhipcat.bsky.social•40 days ago

I can’t believe a thing trump says. I’ll wait to see what fetterman does.

thejenniwren.teamlh.social•40 days ago

He already co-sponsored the vile Laken Riley Act, fully supports Stefanik & Rubio, & is really open to Hegseth & Patel. That’s enough for me.

unhipcat.bsky.social•40 days ago

didn’t know that. That’s concerning.

thejenniwren.teamlh.social•40 days ago

A betrayal.

jules7134.bsky.social•40 days ago

Its shameful! People had his back when he was facing a deluge of criticism about his health. Democrats stood behind him! Now.....he can go fuck himself. He'll never get re-elected

thejenniwren.teamlh.social•40 days ago

I feel the same way. FFCFO
Fucking Fetterman Can Fuck Off

freedomsutra.bsky.social•40 days ago

Well he rooted for the genocide! This is par for the course for someone like him.

bostonborn26.bsky.social•40 days ago

Wow. Just wow.

ev3nth0rizon.bsky.social•40 days ago

Can this be a case study for lack of oxygen and brain damage causing conservatism?

jdkahler.bsky.social•40 days ago

A study in dumbasses making shit up. Pathetic.

starrynitedsgn.bsky.social•40 days ago

POS

sueshoes8.bsky.social•40 days ago

Impressed that has bowed down to the demented king

peggyfrompa.bsky.social•40 days ago

This Pennsylvanian is so disgusted. He needs to represent our interests; McCormick certainly won’t!

carolrinerjones.bsky.social•40 days ago

Keep your enemies closer.
He’s crazy like a fox I do believe

jaderydererhard.bsky.social•39 days ago

How much money? Because you know the Felon-Insurrectionist will ridicule Fetterman. Bet he already has derogatory nicknames lined up

ksmithlogicx.bsky.social•40 days ago

He is such a disappointment.

thejenniwren.teamlh.social•40 days ago

Absolutely agree.

yafachaya.bsky.social•40 days ago

Normalizing violent insurrectionists and convicted felons. VIOLENT INSURRECTIONISTS AND CONVICTED FELONS. As if Trump would not have again called for a violent insurrection and his MAGA Congress would not have opposed certifying the election if Harris won.

thejenniwren.teamlh.social•40 days ago

I’m with you. He’s a traitor.

boocow16.bsky.social•40 days ago

The base of the Democratic party is fed up with Fake Democrats and turncoats.

dangerfieldnewby.bsky.social•40 days ago

Honestly we need to be cautious of those who call themselves progressives. A lot of them have been jumping to MAGA while shitting on Dems. Cenk Uygur, Ana Kasparian, John Fetterman, Jimmy Dore, Glenn Greenwald, Russell Brand, and so many others.

thecommonills.bsky.social•40 days ago

Very good points. And let's never forget that while we were trying to elect Kamala, elements of the 'left' were trashing her daily -- THE NATION magazine (now run by a Marxist), DEMOCRACY NOW!, etc, etc.

thecommonills.bsky.social•40 days ago

I'm tired of the political closet cases who pretend to be Dems and then attack a Kamala from the 'left.' Ana was a Socialist -- DSA that's why she was part of JACOBIN. They just want to rage against Dems and they do so as Socialists & then move on over to the right to rage against Dems even more

thecommonills.bsky.social•40 days ago

I have no problem with Socialists but if Amy Goodman had informed her viewers that the Kamala haters she brought on weren't Dems, her audience would have grasped the con she was running as she worked to tank turnout for Kamala.

boocow16.bsky.social•40 days ago

I truly did not understand what these people were doing. It seems like they joined the Republicans criticize VP Harris. You are absolutely right

boocow16.bsky.social•40 days ago

I agree

boocow16.bsky.social•40 days ago

Well Senator Fetterman you just pissed in your Whiskey sir good luck drinking it. Coner Lamb for US Senate from the great state of Pennsylvania

https://www.duq.edu/faculty-and-staff/conor-lamb.php

tmel1219.bsky.social•40 days ago

I’m in shock 😔 I’ll never understand what he’s doing.

thejenniwren.teamlh.social•40 days ago

Me either. It’s disgraceful.

bellabarna.bsky.social•40 days ago

WTF. The s Fetterman playing the long game or just capitulating?

dappyhayes.bsky.social•40 days ago

Eating peach ring until he bursts.

thejenniwren.teamlh.social•40 days ago

Capitulating. A long game doesn’t exist when you betray your constituents.

t-mcrob.bsky.social•40 days ago

Yeah, he sucks BIG TIME! Had ME fooled. I kept hearing Fetterman this, Fetterman that and I was hoping it wasn’t him!

thejenniwren.teamlh.social•40 days ago

Me too. It’s a travesty.

t-mcrob.bsky.social•40 days ago

Looks like EVERYONE is going down that black hole except Newsome and a few others. Keep watching the trajectory! It’s fascinating!

jiraniheart.bsky.social•40 days ago

We just got rid of Manchin and Sinema, and now this. Damn, just damn.

jerrito8.bsky.social•40 days ago

Remember this, PA!

alkemyst.bsky.social•40 days ago

Primary him. Demand a recall.

gonzalezme.bsky.social•40 days ago

He’s dead to me

thetweetgoeson.bsky.social•40 days ago

Well PA is alot of Maga, and he is doing his 'duty' but why grovel on down to Marlardo the shithole? Could have waited and met him in DC. Abnormal.

embeessem.bsky.social•40 days ago

He wants in on the hustle $$$

wizardbewitch.bsky.social•40 days ago

Well there is no better example of how the survival of the fittest is arrived at, only Darwin didn't know anything about creating his competition in the Human Race especially leaving out the real cooperation we need

jaynenebula.bsky.social•40 days ago

Before they were “Eating the dogs in Ohio” I made campaign graphics about Dogs for Fetterman. Those Dogs are very disappointed now.

thejenniwren.teamlh.social•40 days ago

Poor pups!

janderson70.bsky.social•40 days ago

Oh, if only, I could impress Orange Shitler…🙄

thejenniwren.teamlh.social•40 days ago

😂

trishj-1111.bsky.social•40 days ago

Hang tight, let’s see what comes of it. I don’t believe he will abandon his values.

thejenniwren.teamlh.social•40 days ago

He already has abandoned them. He co- sponsored the vile Laken Riley Act. Fully supports Stefanik & Rubio. Stated he’s very open to Hegseth & Patel. Then goes to MAL with his wife after the felon viciously attacked them. He’s toast.

skrappi.bsky.social•40 days ago

This one i can not understand, I'm baffled.. What happened to him? Was it his brain injury? Was it over Israel? Palestine? What was it?

thejenniwren.teamlh.social•40 days ago

IDK. He had a stroke, which doesn’t cause a complete personality change. Maybe this was his plan for a while.

skrappi.bsky.social•40 days ago

That's what's baffling. I had a stroke back in 2012 after my last born. It screwed with my brain, coordination, eyesight, etc. But it didn't change my personality? Maybe i became more centered, but I didn't cross over.

thejenniwren.teamlh.social•40 days ago

Sometimes people just wait to show their true values. Or he’s a big chicken.

worldofmarilyn.bsky.social•40 days ago

Oh my God! Sellout!

jdkahler.bsky.social•40 days ago

You all need to read through the ENTIRE article for a long time Dem strategist who speaks to reality. Jeez.

English Professor here. I read it along with 3 others before posting. What research & reading have you done? I recommend Masha Gessen, George Lakoff, Ruth Ben Ghiat, Heather Cox Richardson, Erica Chenoweth, Timothy Snyder, etc.

srsf898.bsky.social•40 days ago

AND leaders who stay democrats and don't flip after deceiving the voters.

mkholland.bsky.social•40 days ago

I’m a PA voter who feels sucker punched by Fetterman. He’s tried to rationalize his change of positions by saying he’s Senator for all Pennsylvanians, not just dems. True, but he was elected *because* of his left-leaning views, and his shift to the right feels like a bait and switch. We’ve been had.

jdkahler.bsky.social•40 days ago

So he should, what? Ignore Trump is President? Not do a damn nothing in the senate? How is TALKING TO TRUMP in by way give into his progressive blues. And, like it or not, HE REPRESENTS ALL Pennsylvania. Jeez.

mkholland.bsky.social•40 days ago

He’s doing more than merely talking to Trump, who has “lavished praise” on him. He’s had a well documented pivot to the right in the past 2 yrs that has lots of progressives feeling betrayed. He’s co-sponsored the Laken Riley Act, eg, and has offered support for Trump’s idea of buying Greenland.

thejenniwren.teamlh.social•40 days ago

Exactly. Thank you.

heebee-gb-88.bsky.social•40 days ago

A compliment from trump signals garbage

miltonjames.bsky.social•40 days ago

What a fucking traitor.

expatpoet.bsky.social•40 days ago

This is really disappointing. What the hell has happened to him?

sterlingc69.bsky.social•40 days ago

I sent a donation when he was running. I feel totally betrayed.

dappyhayes.bsky.social•40 days ago

Send the c**t an invoice for a refund and take him to small claims for breach of contract; false advertising.

thejenniwren.teamlh.social•40 days ago

You aren’t alone.

keljhou.bsky.social•40 days ago

I helped get this fucker elected! Oy vey

‘impressive’ is the adjective the director of a singing contest uses to describe a contestant who’s not going to make it

thejenniwren.teamlh.social•40 days ago

😂😂😂

lynndr.bsky.social•40 days ago

If he’s following after the FOTUS he’s not impressive, he’s a disgrace.
