John Fetterman is only Dem senator to stay silent on Alex Pretti shooting - even his wife slammed 'terror' [View all]

John Fetterman is being slammed for seemingly staying silent about the killing of a U.S. citizen by a Border Patrol agent despite his wife already releasing a statement.

Gisele Barreto-Fetterman released a statement hours after the shooting, revealing that she had lived in the U.S. as an undocumented immigrant for over a decade. "This now-daily violence is not 'law and order,'" she wrote.

"It is terror inflicted on people who contribute, love, and build their lives here. It's devastatingly cruel and un-American."

"How bad is this? Even our state’s Republican senator has released a statement on Pretti’s killing," Boyle wrote. "Fetterman continues to be an embarrassment to PA."
