New in PJ Media:
The most courageous and effective conservative voice in the Senate today spoke out again on Wednesday, this time to denounce South Africa’s farcical “genocide” case against Israel at the International Court of Justice. I’m speaking of course, about Sen. John Fetterman (D-What in the World Is Going On?).
Fetterman initially made a name for himself for being barely coherent (if that) and preferring hoodies and gym shorts to suits to the extent that the Senate briefly relaxed its dress code to accommodate him. At that time, even the fact that Fetterman was in the Senate at all seemed like a cruel joke, another expression of the political elites’ contempt for the American people.
The man could barely speak and reportedly could not even understand words spoken to him. His presence in the Senate appeared to demonstrate that the left would put up a department store mannequin as a candidate because the man who was actually holding the office was not the one who was really running things any more than Old Joe Biden is really exercising the responsibilities of the presidency.
And then something happened. After a hospital stay, Fetterman began to speak clearly and coherently, and most strikingly of all, conservatively. Suddenly this man who had never uttered a word that dissented in the slightest degree from his party’s talking points was sounding notes that made him appear to be not just another far-left socialist corruptocrat but a clear-eyed, thoughtful American patriot with the best interests of his constituents and the American people as a whole at heart.
What happened? Did Fetterman, while he was in the hospital, come under the care of a Dr. Frankenstein who laid him down on the table and gave him a new brain, say, Ronald Reagan’s, or at very least John F. Kennedy’s? No one knows, but whatever has happened, it would be a tremendous boon to the nation if every Democrat senator had whatever procedure Fetterman may have had. And no one again knows how long it will last, but for the moment, Fetterman is articulating the case for patriotism and common sense more effectively than any of his Republican colleagues.
On Wednesday, he excoriated South Africa for its hypocrisy in claiming that Israel’s military, which has been called “the most moral army in the history of warfare,” was guilty of genocide, while in South Africa itself, a major political leader led a crowd in singing “Kill the Boer,” and numerous white farmers have indeed been killed.
There is more. Read the rest here.

May G-d bless this man who has blessed Abraham and Abraham’s seed and who therefore is blessed by G-s!

“Fetterman initially made a name for himself for being barely coherent (if that)….”
Doubtless Dems preferred that he should remain so over what they’re getting now. They seem to have more than a few barely sentient national pols; they clearly like them that way.

@Robert Spencer:
What you’re referring to is an heinous clip, in which some black man incites a whole stadium full of blacks with this rythmic chant ‘kill the boer, kill the boer, prrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrt’ (‘boer’ meaning ‘farmer’ and referring to the Dutch settler farmers of old*), while acting as if he’s spraying around with a machine gun. And the whole black stadium goes a riot. Talking about racism… Reverse, that is.
What you are leaving out is the phenomenon of ‘plaasmoorden’, ‘plaas’ meaning ‘place’ and within this context farms, and ‘moorden’ meaning ‘murders’. Plaasmoorden are comparable to black on white 7 Octobers, outright pogroms by blacks on whites.
*It must be noted that when the Dutch entered the inlands of South Africa they found zilch local, aboriginal population. The land was deserted, so they did not displace anybody, or kill people for that matter.

FREE PALESTINE.!…yes of course…from hamas.
That’s exactly what the IDF are doing.duh.A campaign against a demonic islamic terrorist cult.

The Keffiyeh wearing NGO paid Lefty hypocrites will be out,the socialist “workers” {off work so early mr socialist?}Is that a che guevara t shirt?Gotta keep that red flag flying!
I don’t want any kids hurt in a war but hamas KILLED children,raped women but ..it doesn’t matter?
oh that’s different Lefties isn’t it.?.they are Zionists.No they are children.Do lefties not care about children…i mean the Jewish Israeli ones?
Do you know that islam has a famous teaching{Gharqad tree}calling for the extermination of the Jewish people?That;’s what hamas are doing.
Isn’t that…Genocide?
Well you know know:lefties are actually pro Genocide.And not surprising given the left’s history!
Oh and islam refers to lefties{non-muslims{ as the WORST of created beings” koran 98:6}Apartheid indeed.The completely innocent pallys didn’t tell you?

It was like Fetterman was elected in a semi-coma state as a Progressive democrat and has awaken from that state to a new state of being ,what an old democratic was in 1960.It is both strange and wonderful ,what is next Fetterman knocking American government billions of dollars to prop up and “green ” new deals industry ???Will the “squad” start knocking Fetterman for backing Israel ,and Fetterman pointing out South Africa government war on white people? We do live in interesting times when hope comes where we less expect it from !

Ever heard of a “walk-in”?

I am Spartacus
I stand with Spartacus
I too stand with Spartacus
We all stand with Spartacus
Leftist:Oh i better be anti-Spartacus then.Makes perfect virtue-signalling lefty sense doesn’t it?
Spartacus probably has white-privilege and is not even a vegan.
Down with Spartacus!..and free palestine!
WPM says
Yes
as long as Fetterman had a D next to his name and was running against someone with a R next to his it was alright to vote for Fetterman in a semi-coma state. Fetterman just nodded when ask progressive talking points and stared blankly at the walls when running for he Senate spot .. When he does not support what is really near the progressive,s heart the over throw of western civilization ,western law ,the golden rules this should be interesting what the progressives’ do next .
somehistory says
Truth is stranger than fiction. There was a guy who went on a vacation in CA, went swimming and was attacked by a shark, which bit him in the back.
Of course, this man had to be seen by emergency doctors for the severe wound. And, the doctors not only fixed him up, but found he had a medical condition on its way to killing him. They fixed that too. If it hadn’t been for the shark bite, he would have soon died from his medical condition.
Perhaps Mr. Fetterman had something that needed fixing and when he went into the hospital, that situation was “fixed” and now, he’s thinking straight.
Truth is strange. In so many ways, so much of the time.
ed says
I voted for Fetterman because he is home grown and his opponent was not
Atarah Charis says
I watched him when he couldn’t speak coherently and understand speech, and it just seemed like he was under God’s judgment.
It could be that he had some kind of dramatic God encounter that left him scared straight so to speak. So awesome to see!
Wellington says
As a life-long Pennsylvanian I am mystified by this. Perhaps as I mentioned once before at JW this is all a set-up to get the other Pennsylvania Senator, Robert Casey Jr., re-elected this year over the Republican candidate who will probably be Dave McCormick by implicitly conveying that Casey is a moderate (his father, the former Governor of Pennsylvania, was but not Casey Jr.) but maybe Fetterman is the real deal. Not sure. Time will tell.
James Lincoln says
I am very pleasantly surprised by the “transformation” that has taken place with Sen. Fetterman.
Hard to believe, really…
࿗Infidel࿘ says
This is really a medical miracle, if ever I’ve seen one ?
Ben says
It’s hypocritical that South Africa wants to accuse Israel of genocide while in South Africa itself a genocide has for years been taking place against white farmers.
rbla says
It was his hoodie. It warmed up his brain and now he can think again. All Democrats should be required to wear hoodies.
