The Pennsylvania senator dismissed the demand for further investigation as “moot.”
Senator John Fetterman appeared not to understand why Democrats want to investigate the deadly strike that killed dozens of Iranian children.
During an interview with CNN’s Kaitlan Collins Wednesday night, Fetterman was asked to explain why he hadn’t signed onto a letter from Senate Democrats that questioned Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth on the February 28 strike on Shajarah Tayyebeh, a girls’ primary school miles from Tehran. The strike killed 175 people, many of them young girls.
“Well, because we all agree that it’s a tragedy having the school hit, and we all agree now for an investigation,” Fetterman said. “What I don’t agree with the rest of my colleagues in the House is that it’s a war of choice, or it’s dumb, or all the things my colleagues have described, you know, this operation. I think it’s a good thing, and I support that.”
Fetterman was referring to a line in the letter describing Donald Trump’s military campaign as “a war of choice without Congressional authorization.” The letter did not describe the war as “dumb.”
People who look crazy like this fuckhead shouldn’t throw stones.
Brain damaged fool says what?
It must be true, he read it on Facebook guys!
“dozens” is a really weird way of spelling “over a hundred”.
It is, indeed.
FFS, even saying a “dozen dozens“ would be underselling the actual death toll of that particular war crime.
The world honestly would be a (slightly) better place if that stroke was just a smidge more fatal…
Dat boy out to lunch.
John Fetterman had medically confirmed brain damage.
This guy has been a major disappointment, but I want to remind everyone, that if Fetterman had t won his election, we’d be listening to Dr Oz run his fraud mouth.
Guys like Manchin and Sinema and Fetterman piss us off, but they contribute to the Democratic seat count, which is really really close right now. In past close party counts, sometimes the majority is only because of a DINO. They may not vote how we’d like, as much as we like, but their registration as Dem means that Dems control the chamber, the investigations, the legislation, etc.
So while he’s a pain in the ass, he still has value to the party. Right now, the MAGA majority in the House is so thin, that if only one more Republican resigns effective immediately, the majority will swing to the Dems, BEFORE THE MIDTERMS EVEN HAPPEN.
If I were the Dems, I’d be offering huge rewards to any Republican willing to retire immediately. Want a cushy, high paying gig with a lobbying firm? We can make that happen. MAGA will scream, but who cares? That’s always entertaining anyway.
I guess but isn’t Dr. Oz just in a different position within the trump administration now?
But he’s not a Senator.
He just said killing school children is a leftist conspiracy wtf are you talking about
This is all very true. I just wish we had enough margin for error w/o jagoffs like this.
I remember SNL summing up this problem in a way that was razor sharp when they had the person playing Sinema saying she (paraphrasing) “wanted to watch the world burn”.
That just nailed it. Sinema was so obviously an incredibly selfish person and felt just so entitled. Same with Manchin. (Hey you guys! He wrote a book called “Dead Center”! LOL, I’ve seen him interviewed on it, and he really does seem to believe this notion of centrism, and that it’s somewhere between the radically extremist party that the Republicans are as contrasted with the only moderately right wing Democratic Party. I’d love to know what the “centrist” position is between, say, extreme renditioning all brown people in the United States vs. you know, not doing that?)
IKR, it would be sooo comfy to have a cushion. We’ve been balancing on the hard edge for years.
Does anyone on any side think this brain-damaged flip-flopper has anything important to say?
The right seems to like a lot what he says, probably consider him one of the “good ones” until it’s time to pair down on who to shoot next.
John Fetterman lives under a bridge and eats any traveller who can’t answer his riddles
This dude is definitely a pedofile
I dont know if he is a pedo. I do know he turned conservative after the stroke. Really make you think about the effects of a traumatic brain injury and conservatism
Must be a coincidence that he takes so much money from the child trafficking state of Israel
Studies have shown that traumatic brain injuries often lead to conservative thinking.
Honestly, it’s a bit funny. People with fucked up brains turn conservative, which implies that conservatives have fucked up brains, for which we have all witnessed plenty of anecdotal evidence. POTUS is a perfect example. He’s definitely got a fucked up brain, the most fucked up brain in the entire world, everybody is saying it. “Sir, they say, SIR! You’re brain is fucked up, and I say, it isn’t fucked up it’s MAGA! I have a MAGA brain! Not fucked up, MAGA!”
Lol. I read the end as him
I wish I could go back in time and vote against him in the primary, but he was cool back then flying the weed flag at the state capital. He also ran against Dr Oz, who is worse but I had high hopes for him. Now I just feel betrayed everytime he makes the news. I never felt so ashamed to have given anyone my vote as him.
Go jump into the Potomac you brain damaged traitor.
Number of reasons to hate the guy are too high. He could eat a baby for all I care, I simply can’t hate him more.

Meaning everybody who is not a “leftie” is a psychopath.
