Sen. John Fetterman (D-Penn.) calls it as he sees it — as he proved in his first post on Truth Social.
The Democratic lawmaker first posted on President-elect Donald Trump’s social media platform Tuesday night to call for the Republican Trump to be pardoned in his hush money case in New York. He also agreed with President Joe Biden pardoning his son, Hunter Biden, on federal gun and tax evasion charges.
In his post, Fetterman included a screenshot of an MSNBC report with the headline, “Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg responds to Trump’s motion to dismiss the hush money case.”
Fetterman wrote, “My first truth… The Trump hush money and Hunter Biden cases were both bullsh*t, and pardons are appropriate. Weaponizing the judiciary for blatant, partisan gain diminishes the collective faith in our institutions and sows further division.”
Fetterman has not posted since as of early Wednesday afternoon and has amassed more than 28,000 followers.
Fetterman also went to his account on X, formerly Twitter, to announce he had joined Truth Social and Bluesky.
“Meeting folks where they are,” he wrote.
