Senator John Fetterman (D-Penn.) has publicly dismissed a recent report that raised significant concerns regarding his mental health, labeling it as a "hit piece." The article, which cites commentary from several current and former staff members, suggests that Fetterman’s mental state may be affecting his ability to fulfill his duties effectively.
In his response, Fetterman emphasized that the report relies heavily on a single source and described it as lacking credibility. He expressed frustration over the portrayal of his mental health, asserting that such narratives can be damaging and misleading.
Fetterman has been open about his struggles with mental health following a stroke he suffered in May 2022. Despite the challenges he has faced, he continues to serve in the Senate and maintain his commitment to his constituents. His statement aims to clarify the situation and reassure the public about his capacity to perform his responsibilities as a senator.
