Sen. Fetterman Faces Mental Health, Staff Allegations

News summary

Reports based on a New York Magazine exposé have intensified scrutiny of Senator John Fetterman's mental and physical health following his 2022 stroke and subsequent treatment for clinical depression in 2023. Current and former staffers, including ex-chief of staff Adam Jentleson, allege erratic mood swings, conspiratorial thinking, neglect of medication, and that Fetterman is unfit to drive. The exposé also highlights a shift in Fetterman's political positions, staff resignations, and the emergence of a 'Fetterman Alumni for Peace' group. Additional controversies include family tensions, a challenging work environment, and Fetterman's responsibility for an early morning car crash. Fetterman and his wife strongly deny the allegations, calling the reports politically motivated and untrue. Despite ongoing concerns, Fetterman maintains he is in good health, supported by his doctors and family.
