re: I don't even like me. Didn't an old joke have the punchline 'You have to wait in a line to hate him.' ? Actually I wish him well about his health problems but not his politics.

Not much satisfaction in being a scammer. It does not lead to high regard for oneself.

I don't think it's depression, but more like: I should have ended my campaign for Senator and concentrated instead on recuperating from the stroke but I have parents and a wife who I realize just don't care about my well being.

Depression can be treated which is what he should be focused on. Apparently he can barely communicate nor dress himself. Dems just need to keep that Senate seat in their hands - even if it destroys the occupant.

If Sen. John Fetterman's voters thought electing him would be a great way for him to get the mental and medical help he needed, they were greatly mistaken. All he gets is more press.

I have been depressed, and short of war, it is the closest thing to Hell on earth. I do not wish it or that debilitating stroke upon Fetterman. However, the man is not helping himself or others by struggling at a job od which he is clearly not capable. Go home and heal, John. Sadly, he will not be allowed to because like Biden, his frailties are being exploited by his heartless party.

"'I Don't Even Like Me': John Fetterman ... " - that is fairly obvious - now tell us what's really bothering you because no one can have so many bouts of depression and not have some very deep underlying causes, you must have had an unenviable childhood with more disappointment and cruelty than anyone could ever imagine had they not lived the same kind of life you did.

Look, Fetterman, that's not your constituents' problem. Why did you run for office? The time to get help is long passed, and the U.S. Senate is not the place to get it.

Suicides by women in Afghanistan are skyrocketing according to a new report that has come out a year after President Biden catastrophically pulled US forces from the country handing it over to the Taliban. The despair of Afghanistan women suffering under the deadly oppression of the Taliban is palpable to all women and it should bring great shame to the Biden administration. One young woman was kept from becoming a doctor and then was forced into a marriage with her cousin who was a heroin addict. She felt she had nothing left to live for

Beginning in April 2014 — one month after then Vice President Joe Biden became “point man” for U.S. policy in Ukraine — Joe’s son Hunter took a directorship of Ukrainian energy company Burisma at a fee of $83,333 per month, or $1 million per year. Burisma was then strongly suspected of corruption, and within only a few months it came under official investigation, following the appointment in early 2015 of Victor Shokin as Ukraine’s General Prosecutor. Then in late 2015 and early 2016, VP Joe Biden engineered the firing of Shokin by threatening to withhold a billion dollars of U.S. aid, which aid he controlled at that time.

Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W. Va.), the embattled senior senator from the Mountain State, says he’s “thinking seriously” about leaving the Democratic Party as he mulls his political future. Mr. Manchin, the former governor of West Virginia, has occupied his seat in the Senate since 2010, when he was elected to fill the vacancy left by the death of Sen. Robert Byrd (D-W. Va.). Even as his state shifted further and further into the arms of the Republican Party, Mr. Manchin held onto his seat by presenting himself as a “conservative Democrat” and a moderate voice among his party as it moved further to the left.

Cases of myocarditis soared among U.S. service members in 2021 after the COVID-19 vaccines were rolled out, a top Pentagon official has confirmed. There were 275 cases of myocarditis in 2021—a 151 percent spike from the annual average from 2016 to 2020, according to Gilbert Cisneros Jr., undersecretary of defense for personnel and readiness, who confirmed data revealed by a whistleblower earlier this year. The COVID-19 vaccines can cause myocarditis, a form of heart inflammation that can lead to mortality, including sudden death. COVID-19 also can cause myocarditis. The diagnosis data comes from the Defense Medical Epidemiology Database.

In February 2020, ex-ABC News reporter 53-year-old James Gordon Meek of Arlington, Virginia, used an online messaging platform on his iPhone, where he discussed a sexual interest in children, to send and receive graphic images as well as videos depicting kids forced to engage in sexually explicit conduct, according to court documents. Some of the child sexual abuse material (CSAM) depicted prepubescent minors under the age of 12, including an infant being raped.

A judge dismissed a lawsuit brought by six University of Wyoming Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority sisters seeking to block a trans-identifying male from joining. The sorority sisters will now be forced to accommodate Artemis Langford (whose given name is Dallin), a 6’2″, 260-pound man who believes he is a woman. Wyoming U.S. District Court Judge Alan Johnson, after hearing allegations of sexual deviancy on Langford’s part, ultimately dismissed the case on Friday and stated that redefining “woman” to include males was “Kappa Kappa Gamma’s bedrock right as a private, voluntary organization — and one this Court may not invade.” Johnson notably used Langford’s preferred she/her pronouns in his decision

Federal revenue dropped $416 billion compared to this time last year, according to recently released U.S. Treasury Department data, despite the Democrats’ passage of their $780 billion Inflation Reduction Act last year. The legislation, which President Biden signed in August 2022, contained a 15% minimum corporate income tax, which still hasn't been fully implemented by the IRS. Experts at the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget and the Tax Foundation told Just the News that most of the revenue raising provisions in the IRA have not taken effect yet but they likely won't raise much revenue given the price-tag of the energy-related tax credits in the bill.

President Joe Biden made a false claim on Monday when he said that he “literally” convinced former Dixiecrat Sen. Strom Thurmond (SC) to vote for the Civil Rights Act. The president made his outlandish claim while speaking on the 60th anniversary of the founding of the civil rights legal group, the Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights Under Law. “Pause for just a moment. I thought things had changed. I was able to literally, not figuratively, talk Strom Thurmond into voting for the Civil Rights Act before he died, and I thought, ‘Well maybe there’s real progress,’ But hate never dies. It just hides, it hides under the rocks,” he said.

Hurricane Idalia could be the strongest storm to hit the Florida Big Bend region for a century, with projections it could become a Category 3 storm with 150mph winds and a 12 foot storm surge. The large storm is currently churning around 80 miles off the western tip of Cuba and is barreling north towards Florida with winds now at 70mph. At 8pm on Monday the National Hurricane Center said Idalia had almost reached hurricane status. It's projected to grow into a Category 3 hurricane with 120 mph sustained winds and gusts up to 150 mph before making landfall while also producing storm surge up to 12 feet.
