Pennsylvania Senators John Fetterman and Dave McCormick faced off in a televised “Senate showdown” hosted by Fox News, exchanging views on key issues while maintaining a friendly, respectful tone.
On May 12, 2025, former Democratic presidential candidate Dean Phillips criticized his party for turning against Senator John Fetterman (D-PA) amid concerns over Fetterman's mental health.
Democratic Pennsylvania Sen. John Fetterman’s mental health struggles were reportedly far more severe than publicly acknowledged, according to a detailed exposé by New York Magazine. Based on interviews with the senator and multiple insiders, the report outlines erratic behavior, strained relationships, and widespread staff concern during and after his extended battle with depression.
Democratic Sen. John Fetterman of Pennsylvania stated Thursday that he is “not afraid” if his 13-year-old daughter competes against biological males in sports, downplaying growing concerns over transgender athletes in women’s competitions.
Senator John Fetterman of Pennsylvania is experiencing significant staff turnover as he increasingly diverges from Democratic Party lines. Recently, Deputy Chief of Staff and Legislative Director Tré Easton and Communications Director Charlie Hills announced their departures. Easton expressed gratitude for building a diligent policy team, stating, "Together we created a legislative body of work that I think is a blueprint for how Democrats should be governing when they have power."
