Sen. John Fetterman offered a message Wednesday to House Republicans considering impeaching President Joe Biden: “Go ahead, do it. I dare you.”
Speaking to reporters in his Senate office, the Pennsylvania Democrat suggested that the impeachment push by Republicans on the other side of the Capitol was meant to deflect from the mountain of legal problems facing former President Donald Trump.
“Your man has what, three or four indictments now?” Fetterman said. “Trump has a mug shot and he’s been impeached twice.”
“Sometimes you just gotta call their bullshit,” he said.
The first-term senator went on to say that a Biden impeachment "would just be like a big circle jerk on the fringe right,” and “would diminish what impeachment really means.”
Note: As pointed out by reddig33 in comments, this is an old photo. Here’s a couple examples of his new look.
Fetterman was the mayor of Braddock PA, a place I’m rather familiar with, for a long time. Braddock was/is a forgotten borough of Pittsburgh that’s long past its glory days. Fetterman came in and wanted to clean up Braddock. How effective he’s been has been up to debate, but the man really was a strong voice for Braddock and showed that he really cared. For every violent death that happened in Braddock while he was mayor, he’d get a tattoo of the date on his arm. He also got arrested for protesting the local hospital (UPMC), to get them to bring an urgent care center to Braddock.
Personally I think he’s improved Braddock. He helped bring in a few new businesses, and it’s helped liven the place up a bit. But it’s still a rough neighborhood that needs a lot of work.
