Devastating story showing Fetterman's latest pathetic turn is as the subject of a MAGA grift. He sends emails bashing Democrats, MAGA groups keep 75%. Pennsylvanians get nothing. Gift link: www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...

Had a great time talking to @conorlambpa.bsky.social yesterday, spent the first half talking about Fetterman and the rest of the time about the role PA will play in the midterms. Watch and/or read the summary: www.rawamerica.com/p/former-pen...
We’re down one senator, up 693 cases of measles. Children dying of a preventable disease and no one speaking for them in “the world’s greatest legislative body.”
“I feel like there is a duty for the people of Pennsylvania to understand that they don’t have two senators right now,” Easton said. “They have David McCormick, who is leading the other senator around.” www.thedailybeast.com/former-deput...

Replying to @semafor.com
Former Rep. Conor Lamb, who’s also been floated as a possible Fetterman challenger, said the video “reminded me of a North Korean newscast, with Fetterman praising the great leader for his efforts in the industrial heartland while everyone else in the country understands they’re getting screwed.”
An old-fashioned op-Ed. triblive.com/opinion/cono...

So the guy who accuses us, @mehdirhasan.bsky.social, @zeteo.com of being "anti-American" pretended to be sick to avoid meeting with paralyzed veterans, and dodged a PA lawmaker who came down to DC to talk with him about working and homeless people all to… focus on Israel, a foreign country, instead.
My gosh. Fetterman pretended to be sick to avoid meeting three paralyzed veterans from rural PA…and then went to do a Fox interview on Israel. He agreed to meet a lawmaker who drove from PA to talk about homeless and working people…and then bailed & met pro-Israel Bruce Pearl.
Fetterman and McCormick both support Trump’s “let data reign” on data centers yet in actual Pennsylvania, parents are fighting a data center that would increase noise across from a school by 8x, penetrating its walls with sound. No help from either senator. www.thecentersquare.com/pennsylvania...

Heartbreaking and outrageous. In a 250-day deployment, in an unwinnable Middle East war, we have multiple sailors trying to jump.
Troops and veterans in crisis you can always call 988 or go to www.militaryonesource.mil
First clip I’ve seen where it’s clear HE is the one imposing an Israel position on US. I never agreed to support any country unconditionally regardless of their crimes and whether they hold up their end of the relationship, yet that is what Fetterman tries to require of Democrats on Israel.
Jon is joined by U.S. Senator John Fetterman @fetterman.senate.gov for discussion on the Democratic Party, Israel, and the issues that continue to shape his politics. New podcast out tomorrow!
In all the tributes to Glen Hansard I haven’t seen this posted yet. A solo take on “Pavement Tune” with a great take on how and why it was written. “I want my life to make more sense I want my life to make amends I want my life to make more sense to me.” Right on.
Nonprofit newsroom The Warhorse obtained records showing the Pentagon concealed an attack early in the Iran War in which 70 people were injured in a day. 2 generals have been accused of ignoring intelligence in the attack that killed six of our troops. thewarhorse.org/records-troo...
This is an enormous story not getting enough attention. As of this morning the Pentagon website claims 14 troops have died when in fact it was 18. Disgusting.
"The erasure of the deaths of Lt. Feehan, Pvt. Gonzales, Sgt. Rampersand, and Sgt. Swinton is one of many instances of the administration’s dishonesty. The dishonesty cannot diminish the honor due to these soldiers. But it does stain the honor of our country." www.thebulwark.com/p/trump-trie...

In this week’s roundtable, #AaronBlake @conorlambpa.bsky.social & @mimirocah1.bsky.social join Harry to assess Todd Blanche’s confirmation prospects, the fallout from two new ICE killings, and what Trump’s primetime election rant reveals about his plans for the midterms. Link: youtu.be/N2MLWtCNzC4
He rubs our face in his betrayal every day it seems. But sorry John Republican money is not going to save you, and your buddies at Fox are going to forget your name as soon as Pennsylvania fires you.
Senator John Fetterman (D-PA) and Senator Dave McCormick (R-PA) launch a new joint fundraising committee for their re-election campaigns. Something something "new meaning to bipartisanship" something.

Tune in Sunday at 7am ET for interviews with: @debbiedingell.house.gov @govjayinslee.bsky.social @conorlambpa.bsky.social Former Rep. Sean Patrick Maloney
Years of painstaking work will be required to prosecute the corruption happening in this administration.
SCOOP from @by-cjewett.bsky.social & me: Markwayne Mullin urged the Department of Health and Human Service to remove warnings from the FDA website about the health risks of the gas station drug kratom. Mullin owns equity in a leading kratom company called Botanic Tonics that could have benefited.
This is one of the House races that will have an outsized impact on the pursuit of justice and accountability in the next two years. Was great to see Democrats focused, united, and packing a room so early in the summer.

This is very much an under-appreciated story that Republicans hope no one notices. We finally won a state constitutional right for abortion coverage and they’re immediately trying to take it away.
BREAKING: A clash over abortion access as a right is heading to the Pennsylvania Supreme Court. AG Dave Sunday (R) appealed today a court ruling that said PA's constitution guarantees a right to "reproductive autonomy." The lower court also struck down the ban on public funding for abortion.
This is one of those where I can’t understand how it isn’t the biggest story in America.
"If this sort of looting of the public coffers at the president’s behest and for his personal gain and that of his allies isn’t an impeachable offense, then the term has truly lost all meaning." On the IRS lawsuit settlement: lnk.thebulwark.com/4tEEC4h
He is the loudest voice for the worst decision in a generation (Iran). His options are a pile of cash or the brutal honesty and accountability of a long hard primary. Gee, I wonder which he chooses.
COLUMN: The political environment is curdling for Republicans, and the quiet campaign to lure Sen. Fetterman across the aisle is underway, writes our political columnist Jonathan Martin. But the first-term Dem isn’t yet persuaded.
