The Dems are piling on Fetterman .

An isolated John Fetterman clashes with colleagues and staff as he skips his Senate duties

Knives out

The Dem pile on continues

Mark Halperin says Fetterman's behavior behind the scenes warrants major concerns

U.S. Senator John Fetterman on X: "I unapologetically stand for free speech, peaceful demonstrations, and immigration—but this is not that. This is anarchy and true chaos. My party loses the moral high ground when we refuse to condemn setting cars on fire, destroying buildings, and assaulting law enforcement. https://t.co/pPYbvP6xR0" / X

He consistently surprises me lately . I did not comment about the military parade that was held yesterday. I thought it was unnecessary . But did not otherwise have a big objection to it .

Fetterman ;again bucking the group think of his party praised the parade .

U.S. Senator John Fetterman on X: "This parade is comprised of our sons, daughters, mothers and fathers—the very best of us. Regardless of your politics, it’s appropriate to celebrate the 250 years of sacrifice, dedication and service. 🇺🇸" / X


Regarding comments about the expense ;they are noted . However I heard commentary that the Army will spend a lot more on recruitment drives this year than the cost of the parade; and this may be a more effective recruitment tool.

It was also noted that the Navy gets a week every year during Fleet Week the highlight being a flotilla of Navy Ships up the Hudson River .
This is a private -public joint sponsored event . That may be the way to fund future Army Day events .

The cost issue is a canard to the real objections .The real objection was that it was Trump's idea and the left thought it a celebration of Trump because it coincided with his birthday. That probably had something to do with it knowing the President's ego . But from what I could tell ;the celebration was strictly to honor the Army on it's 250th anniversary . As was noted ;before there was independence there was an Army fighting for it .
