Fetterman Tells Matt Gaetz To Get His 'Sh*t Together'

Well, it looks like the most punchable face in Congress thinks he wants some smoke from Fetterman. Dude, John would hit you with so many lefts, he'd have you begging for a right.

By Conover Kennard — September 14, 2023
Pennslyvania Senator John Fetterman knows that House Speaker Kevin McCarthy's impeachment inquiry into Joe Biden isn't serious. It's a game of tit-for-tat because Republicans are still upset about former President Donald Trump's two impeachments. Fetterman ran into a tweet from MAGA Rep. Matt Gaetz.

"The evidence against Joe Biden is overwhelming," Gaetz said without offering any evidence. "A first-year law student could win this case for impeachment before a fair jury.

"Unfortunately, the United States Senate isn't a fair jury. It's full of fashion icons like John Fetterman," he said sarcastically.

Rep. Rapey McForehead got more into that on Steve Bannon's podcast, so Fetterman dropped in on Twitter to tell the Florida Rep. to get to work. We're headed for a government shutdown.

"Government shutdown in t-minus 16 days," Fetterman tweeted to Gaetz. "Instead of crying about how I dress, how about you get your shit together and do your job, bud?"

His knuckle dragging constituents seem to agree every 2 years.

and make Republicans think that right wing blogs are somehow evidence that can be presented in court.

Heck, *I* would never mess with Senator Fetterman. He eats entitled frat boys like these for lunch. 😁

My only regret about moving to Delaware is I won't be able to vote for Fetterman again. The man does not suffer fools and is a warrior for our democracy.

They aren't upset about the reasons he was impeached. They treat our government like their own personal banana republic.

I moved from Homestead to Florida a few years before Fetterman became mayor of Braddock, but as far as I'm concerned, he's my senator! (I did send him a donation during the senate race, so I've got skin in the game.)
