After her husband’s latest hospitalization for clinical depression at a hospital in the Washington, D.C. area, Gisele Barreto Fetterman, the wife of Pennsylvania Senator John Fetterman, departed the country due to an overwhelming amount of media attention.
“I am not really sure how to navigate this journey but am figuring it out slowly. 1 week ago today when the news dropped, the kids were off from school and media trucks circled our home. I did the first thing I could think of … pack them in the car and drive,” Gisele tweeted.
Despite receiving too much media attention, Barreto revealed her plans on social media to take the kids up to Canada while her husband stayed in the hospital.
“We drove straight into … Canada (and lovely Buffalo NY) (Pro Tip: always have passports ready just in case you have to run away ) We talked about lots of hard things and how we will all have to face hard things. About the need to be gentle … with all and with ourselves.”
It was revealed earlier in February that Fetterman was hospitalized. He has dealt with issues surrounding his two previous strokes, however, a couple days after that news broke that he actually admitted himself into the hospital for clinical depression. While details are certainly ambiguous, it was divulged that his work life sadly was declining due to his health concerns.
I actually feel sorry for this dude. When you have a severe stroke your choices get more limited and you are dependent on your "handler."
I am glad you said this. From a political standpoint, I can do without Fetterman like I can do without a painful cancer---but from a human standpoint, I feel compassion for him. If you can't communicate with people, it is like being in solitary confinement with a barrier behind your eyes. I would not be surprised if he is coping with suicidal thoughts and profound confusion over how to get through the day. Politics aside, he merits our sense of pity---and for our own sake as human beings, we should extend it.
Right, as soon as he resigns his office and exposes his own fraud.
Oh, I get it---kick him in the ditch and let him die slowly with agonizing cries. That's not compassion, that's sadism masquerading as vengeance...which is masquerading as justice.
As long as he sits in a political office that he is incapable of serving and that he stole from the American public, he deserves worse than whatever he gets. He is doing unrepentant evil to millions of human beings every day just remaining in office, and failing to report the crimes that put him there. You're compassionately pitying a rapist who's still in the midst of raping; ease off the soy.
