Trump's DOJ gave Vermont 14 days to surrender every voter's birthdate and Social Security digits. The Secretary of State refused—and a federal judge just handed the regime its 24th straight defeat: www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/trump-had-...

By early this year, many on Fetterman’s staff were incredulous and exhausted. In private, their boss was acting like a Republican, they say. In January 2026, Fetterman sent to a group chat with staffers a screenshot of an article headline about how the average working family spends nearly $4,000 annually on health care. “How should it cost? Free?” he complained in the text, which I obtained. “I don’t understand what affordability it is.”

The same month, after the Epstein files were released, Fetterman texted a staffer, “Epstein was a nothing burger. Worst pics I’ve seen were from Clinton lol.” When Alex Pretti was killed by ICE in Minneapolis, Fetterman was consumed with grievances about how Democrats were hypocrites for defending Pretti’s right to legally carry a firearm: “Kyle Rittenhouse brought a gun to a protest. He was roundly condemned for that. Why are now democrats defending the nurse it was legal to carry. Both legal weapons. Square that,” he texted
