Fetterman: Left Media More Angry Criticizing U.S. Than Criticizing Iran

Ian Hanchett 11 Mar 2026

On Wednesday’s broadcast of CNN’s “The Source,” Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) said that the strike on a school in Iran is tragic, but left-wing media “is much more angry about” the school strike, “but they didn’t seem to be as concerned about the Iranians massacring tens of thousands of their young people just a couple of weeks ago, too.”

Fetterman said, “I would remind everybody listening right now, the United States never, ever targets civilians. Iran does, including their own citizens, and they massacred 35,000 of them just a couple of weeks ago. And…the left media is much more angry about — talking about this [school], and it is a tragedy, but they didn’t seem to be as concerned about the Iranians massacring tens of thousands of their young people just a couple of weeks ago, too.”

He also stated that it is appropriate to investigate the strike, but he didn’t want to join in with other Democrats who are criticizing the war who wrote a letter about investigating the strike.

 Fetterman says he won’t vote for SAVE Act ‘in its current state’
by Alexander Bolton - 03/12/26 8:14 AM ET

Centrist Sen. John Fetterman (D-Pa.) says he will not vote for the House-passed Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE America) Act “in its current state,” despite pushing back on Democratic rhetoric characterizing the voting reform bill as Jim Crow 2.0.

Fetterman, who has scolded his fellow Democrats for using over-the-top rhetoric, told CBS’s “The Takeout with Major Garrett” he won’t support the bill when it comes to the Senate floor and singled out President Trump’s criticism of mail-in voting.

“I don’t support … in its current state to vote SAVE America. And the president is constantly critical on mail-in voting, and that’s ridiculous. It’s safe,” Fetterman said.

Just a note to remind people that Fetterman remains a Democrat.

Yes he is. But he's right about a lot of things. So I won't throw him in the briar patch just yet. I wish more Dems were like him.

Agreed.  He's one of the more sane DEMS.

He's voting with Schumer on SAVE and probably against funding Homeland Security.

He ain't gonna be reasonable all the time. He is a Dem after all. But he's not insane like a lot of them....he's not part of the Squad.

In fact, if he runs again, I think he should run as Independent. jmho

If he doesn't vote our way when we need him, he's no better than Schumer or McCain. I don't give one shit what game he talks, the votes are where the rubber meets the road and so far, he's given us bupkus.
