"The texts finally leaked to New York Magazine, and now we know exactly where John Fetterman really stands. The senator privately mocks the idea of free healthcare, brushes off the Epstein files, and scolds his own party for grieving a nurse that federal agents shot dead in the street. When staffers brought up the killing of Alex Pretti, the 37-year-old ICU nurse fatally shot by two Border Patrol agents in Minneapolis, Fetterman didn't see a tragedy. He saw a gotcha.
He lined Pretti up next to Kyle Rittenhouse, arguing both men carried legally, so why the selective Democratic outrage?
Here's the part he skipped. Rittenhouse fired his weapon and fatally injured two men. Pretti never fired the gun he carried. He had a legal permit, he was reportedly comforting and leading another person to safety when he was killed, and the county medical examiner ruled his death a homicide.
One man took lives. The other spent his career saving them, then lost his own.
That's the Fetterman now operating behind closed doors. He mocked the idea that a working family shouldn't surrender nearly four thousand dollars a year for healthcare, snapping "How should it cost? Free?" "
