Senator John Fetterman has finally returned to Capitol Hill, having spent most of his tenure as a U.S. senator at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center being treated for clinical depression.
Despite his prolonged period away from the Senate, it doesn't appear that he's experienced any improvement in his recovery from his stroke, and that was abundantly clear from watching him chair the Senate Subcommittee on Agriculture, Nutrition, and Forestry.
"Though his voice stumbled at times while reading from prepared notes, Fetterman appeared in good spirits as he gaveled in a hearing focused on the benefits of the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or SNAP," the paper reported.
We all know much of these hearings are scripted, but Fetterman sounds like he's reading from his prepared remarks for the first time and doesn't seem to understand what he's saying.
Can expect Democrats to assist Fetterman as he maintains the illusion of being a senator as long as possible-at least until after the 2024 elections are over.
Fetterman's defenders will boast about how brave Fetterman is, and try to shame those who question his fitness for office.
We've never failed to ask uncomfortable questions about Fetterman's mental health, and we won't be bullied into silence either.
