So, heâs behaving presidential?
John Fetterman finds himself increasingly alone
The Pennsylvania senator has always had a go-it-alone attitude. Now, in the wake of an article that said staff had concerns about his mental health, he finds himself with little political support from fellow Democrats.
Seriously, watch the entire thing. As he says, this is what our government has devolved to:
Indiana already has this supplemental tax on both EV and hybrid vehicles. One supplemental fee when you buy the vehicle, and a yearly supplemental fee afterwards.
What?
Where to be clear, âfinancial innovationâ means cryptocurrency. I mean, what even is finance except for fancy ways for rich people to take money from poor suckers, right?
AndâŚ
Itâs not just cryptoschemery. It could include anything from company scrip to creative accounting to influence monetization toâŚ
Internal polling shows Fettermanâs support is tanking with Democrats in his backyard
The survey indicates a potential âfreak-out momentâ for the Pennsylvania senator who has made Pittsburgh â his home region â core to his brand.

Somebody is hoping they can get him to switch parties.

Ok, preview no worky. Headline is âGOP rallies around embattled Democratic Sen. John Fettermanâ
I am glad, although I suppose it might open the door for a Republican who actually could beat Ossoff? Is there such a critter, @mindysan33?
I think that Brad Raffensperger might throw his hat in, so thatâs a possibility. I donât know about Buddy Carter, who is a Trumper from the coast. Heâs not as visibly extreme as Greene, but heâs politically similar. Kemp is out, and he was their best shot to win, I think.
Greene apparently ripped the GOP leadership in her post, insisting that she would have won if sheâd run, but she didnât want to. Reading between the lines, it sounds like the GOP leadership refused to support her if she ran. She sounded pretty pissed, which, as I type that, I realize is her normal state, but still . . . her statement that she didnât want to run didnât sound sincere.
Of course, not sounding sincere is also her normal stateâŚ
