"I want to offer condolences to your boss [Mehdi]. I know he's all broke up about the Ayatollah."

Senator John Fetterman’s response to @premthakker.bsky.social when asked about the illegal US strike on an Iranian Naval ship in international waters:

“I want to offer condolences to your boss [Mehdi]. I know he’s all broke up about the Ayatollah.”

1. He looks unwell.

He is also being enabled by someone. I really don't think his brain is the same.

[Initech]

20. I seriously wonder what Rupert Murdoch has on him.

Fox News is an incredibly evil and sinister organization, why anyone treats them as normal is insane.

[Pachamama]

2. What an embarrassment he is

[mountain grammy]

4. What is wrong with him?

What a horrible nasty man he is. Seriously unfit ,

[leftstreet]

5. Who's Mehdi? n/t

[IcyPeas]

8. Mehdi Raza Hasan (from Wikipedia)

Mehdi Raza Hasan[a] (born 10 July 1979) is a British-American broadcaster, journalist, and founder of the media company Zeteo. He presented The Mehdi Hasan Show on Peacock from October 2020 and on MSNBC from February 2021 until the show's cancellation in November 2023.

10. Did not mean to step on you...I'll delete my post

[leftstreet]

12. How Trumpian

Watching tv and surfing social media all day

I wonder how many of his constituents have even heard of "Mehdi"

Well, at least he didn't tell the guy to smile more

[eppur_se_muova]

28. He was a guest on Chris Hayes' show repeatedly and became a regular guest host before getting his own ...

... MSNBC show. I watched regularly, and really liked his ability to get the facts and get to the point. I guess even MSNBC didn't have enough viewers who were willing to accept an openly Muslim host, which is a real shame. He often brought on guests from whom we would never have heard otherwise, because mainstream media would have considered them representatives of "those other people". Even on DU, he often got unfairly harsh criticism.

Fetterman's slur against him is sadly typical of the far right in this country, who paint all Muslims with the same broad brush even though many of them are refugees from, or targets of, the very same hostile Muslim theocratic "leadership" the RWNJs accuse them of serving, and totally out of place in the Democratic Party.

29. Ayman is Muslim and hosted his own show before becoming lead co-host of

MSNOW's "The Weekend".

But Mehdi Hassan is on a different level, very smart, well-informed and in your face. Medhi would destroy Fetterman in a face to face interview or debate. Brits are much more facile with words and thinking on their feet because of their tradition of debate than Americans are or ever will be.

It would help Fetterman if he could succinctly articulate why he is a zealot on supporting Israel, but he can't. He can only put out trollish social media posts.

15. This is Mehdi

And I'll give you one guess why his show on MSNBC was cancelled and he went indy with a youtube show called Zeteo

[Walleye]

6. Well, he's lost. He's gone full maga.

He’s just insulting on purpose. He’s a big guy and he knows he’s not gonna get beat up for it.

[Initech]

21. I supported and defended Fetterman for a long time. I cannot support or defend him any longer.

He hangs out with Fox and Trump, he hangs out with the enemy.

[Walleye]

24. Yes, I was wondering where he got those disrespectful insulting answers

[Initech]

25. I seriously wonder what Murdoch has on him.

[BlueKota]

7. Wow.

That's awful.

[Cha]

11. Oh Fetterman has Insults in addition to

supporting an Illegal War and PEDO "chief".

[pat_k]

14. Just jump ship and become an f-ing Trumpublican already.

He is an embarrassment, but the Trumpublican party is up to their ears in immoral, idiotic, spineless embarrassments hellbent on defending whatever indefensible action the felon takes.

He has made it clear that he belongs in their ranks.

Tragically, states don't have recall power over U.S. Senators or Reps, so short of resignation, PA is stuck with him 'til 2028. However, I would love to see Pennsylvania Dems mobilized to at least get their municipal governments to pass resolutions of condemnation of his failures to defend the constitution and the rights of the people of their state.

It would certainly make some news if such a resolution were passed in Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Harrisburg, Allentown, or Erie (or perhaps even all of them). And perhaps lobby county commissioners to do the same in Delaware, Chester, Montgomery, or Bucks,.

[Fiendish Thingy]

16. Retiring one term senator says what?

[DJ Synikus Makisimus]

17. Remember to vote for MODERATES this primary season

so Fetterman has lots of company, Be sure to take your AIPAC sample ballot with you to the polls.

[2naSalit]

18. Needs to resign and go home...

He didn't come all the way back from his stroke.

[MerryBlooms]

19. One and done, chump. Complete embarrassment. You so done.

[Takket]

22. If by some miracle we have 51 senate seats next year

I fully expect him to drop the charade and switch parties to keep the rethugs in control.

For now he gets to bask in everyone kissing his ass because he took over Sinema‘a job as “swing vote”.

[Johonny]

23. Dress for the job you want.

For instance he dresses like trash...

[Bread and Circuses]

26. We're seeing the real Hoodie Senator

There were concerns about him and whispers in PA. But, he projected this lovable, awkward, Everyman persona. Dems rallied around him.

He displayed oppositional behavior and believe what he’s showing you.

👉🏽This is not bashing Dems. I continue to support and vote for progressive Dems. We need a Blue Wave of fighters, patriots and strong people.

If HoodieMan is suffering from a medical ailment that negatively impacts his cognition, his staff and family should do an intervention. He needs to resign and get healthy. Hope that happens .
