And their "staff" don't work for them. They work for the people behind the curtain without any accountability.

John Fetterman is making progress in his recovery from clinical depression and could leave Walter Reed within next two weeks, a person close to the senator told me. The senator's physician recently informed him that he will be “as good or better than his best days post-stroke. 
"Fetterman's stay has lasted this long because the doctors have been trying to get his "medication balance exactly right," per source. For instance, doctors learned his blood pressure med was too high, which may have contributed to dizziness when he went to GW hospital last month

I bet he’s excited to get out of the hospital and see his wife again. Provided she’s back from vacation.

New Health Update on John Fetterman Is the Most Insulting Yet
By Bonchie | 4:30 PM on March 14, 2023

John Fetterman remains institutionalized and unable to perform the duties of his office following his admission for severe depression. Now, we finally have an “update” on his situation.

As RedState previously reported, the Pennsylvania senator and his staff have provided very little in the way of information for the public, though they have staged a few photos of him “working” for the compliant press to fawn over.

Making the situation even weirder, Gisele Fetterman ran off to Canada after her husband initially went into the hospital, posting a long social media screed in which she didn’t even mention him. Some weeks later, People Magazine, in an article meant to drool over Gisele Fetterman being a volunteer firefighter, revealed that she’s only been visiting her husband once a week.

So what’s the latest update? According to CNN’s Manu Raju, Fetterman is “making progress in his recovery from clinical depression” and will be “as good or better than his best days post-stroke.”

Putting that out is insulting. I know the assumption is that most Americans are either too stupid or too busy to pay attention to political gas-lighting, but truly, this is next-level stuff.

John Fetterman has clinical depression, and by his own admission, he has a severe diagnosis of it. Clinical depression is not like a virus. You don’t just go to the hospital, sit around, pop some meds, and come out good as new a few weeks later. Rather, it’s often a life-long struggle of balancing medication and one’s personal life in order to mitigate the effects. This idea that Fetterman is going to get a new drug cocktail and suddenly be “cured” is farcical. That’s not how depression works.

Further, the circumstance which triggered Fetterman’s worsening depression was his working in Washington, DC. How is he going to return to his life and not suffer another relapse if he changes absolutely nothing about it? This is a man who needs to be at home with his family. Presumably, that would include an attentive wife. Going back to the doldrums and stresses of politics, remaining isolated from those he loves will only exacerbate his situation.

If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.

Even if he were magically and completely cured of depression - which is not the way these things happen, as we know -  the severe cognitive deficiencies resulting from the stroke still render him unfit to do the job.

Which is probably contributing to his depression. It's a vicious cycle. 
He needs to go home and take care of his health.

I have a co worker who thought it was ridiculous for the Republican party to nominate somebody like Donald Trump.

I quickly pointed out that it was his party that nominated somebody like Joe Biden for POTUS and thought that a  stroke patient with receptive aphasia would make a good and capable senator.
I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.

Where's John Fetterman? It's been nearly 5 weeks after "checking himself into" the psych ward. A google news search reveals little, except this slurpfest: As John Fetterman heals, his Senate staff soldiers on with the help of veteran lawmakers and crisis bonding: 'We all have each other's back', posted today at Business Insider.

Report: John Fetterman Will Return to U.S. Senate Mid-April

Jacob Bliss 29 Mar 2023 Washington, DC

Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) will reportedly make his return to the U.S. Senate the week of April 17 after checking himself into the hospital for “clinical depression” in February.

“Sen. John Fetterman plans to return to the Senate the week of April 17 after more than a month of inpatient treatment for depression, according to two people with direct knowledge of his plan,” Politico reported on Wednesday.

The Pennsylvania senator checked himself into Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in February, where he began receiving treatment on a voluntary basis for “clinical depression” after being examined by doctors, according to a statement from Fetterman’s chief of staff, Adam Jentleson, at the time.

It was the second time the senator had been in the hospital within weeks. The week before, Fetterman was hospitalized for “clinical depression,” he made a hospital visit after he “began feeling lightheaded.” At the time, Fetterman’s communications director, Joe Cavello, said that “initial tests did not show evidence of a new stroke” but that more tests would be run.

Fetterman’s return will be greatly welcomed by Senate Democrats, who have a slim majority, since it would ultimately help fend off Republican-led bills. Since he left the Senate for the hospital, Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) also announced that she would miss some time in the Senate to receive treatment for shingles.

The move by both senators left the Democrats without an outright majority and a struggle to get bills passed and deals made in their absence.

He's rested and refreshed, and raring to go! Well, okay, not exactly raring. Three weeks from now, he'll be raring to go.

Fetterman set to return to Senate week of April 17
by Al Weaver - 03/29/23 4:28 PM ET

Sen. John Fetterman (D-Pa.) is set to return to the Senate the week of April 17, two Democratic sources told The Hill.

A source close to Fetterman confirmed he will return once the Senate comes back from its upcoming two-week recess. The Pennsylvania progressive has been absent from the Senate since mid-February after checking himself into Walter Reed Medical Military Hospital with clinical depression.

Prior to Wednesday, Fetterman’s team has declined to lay out a timeline for the senator’s return, saying he was recovering well and would return “soon.” They had also released photographs of the senator meeting with chief of staff Adam Jentleson while hospitalized to discuss a number of matters related to the upper chamber.

Sen. Bob Casey (D-Pa.) told The Hill on Wednesday that he met with his fellow Keystone State lawmaker a day earlier and was pleased to see how he was doing.  ...
The Hill

I understand the usual in-patient hospitalization for serious depression is less than two weeks.  :pondering:
But thank goodness Pennsylvania's other braindead Senator is on top of things. Thanks for your insight, Bob.

But in the meantime, he still has a vote in the Senate, and his unelected, hard-left wife is undoubtedly exercising that vote in cahoots with his staff.
