Fetterman Had To Be Reminded Where He Lives Again

It seems Senator John Fetterman has not only forgotten what party he belongs to, but what country he lives in, as well.

But don't fret; Jon Stewart was happy to remind him.

In a teaser that was released ahead of an upcoming episode of Stewart's The Weekly Show, we got a sobering glimpse into exactly where John Fetterman's loyalties lie, in case that was somehow still questionable for anyone, anywhere, ever.

Over the last few months, the highly controversial Pennsylvania Democrat has made repeated threats to leave the Democratic Party over its lack of support for Israel. To that, we say, what are you waiting for? Don't threaten us with a good time.

But I digress.

Back in mid-July, Fetterman made an appearance on Fox News where he made it crystal clear that Israel is his "red line," telling the host at the time, "Look at the people who are winning these primaries right now. They are not just, ‘I’m just pro-Palestinian. I’m deeply anti, anti-Israel.’"

Stewart took it upon himself to prod Fetterman a little deeper about his fellow Democrats, asking, "You could agree with them 90%, but Israel is the red line?"

"Absolutely," Fetterman answered. "I can’t ever turn my back to Israel after where it’s at."

And that's when Stewart locked in for a quick lil geography lesson:

US Troops Hit With BIZARRE Request As Trump Fails To Find A Way Out Of His War

Donald Trump's illegal war with Iran is now well into its sixth month, with no conceivable end in sight, and it appears that US Central Command has grown desperate for ideas, now calling on American troops to brainstorm "creative and unconventional ways to pressure and punish Iran."

CNN broke reporting on the truly bizarre and unsettling request that was sent out to US military analysts last week.

According to a source familiar with the message, a CENTCOM intelligence branch officer pushed out a message reading, "We are looking for new creative and unconventional ways to pressure and punish Iran," to United States troops.

This unsettling news breaks just one day after Donald Trump stood aboard Air Force One and told reporters and the American public that an end to the war was underway, claiming that negotiations with Iran would begin "tomorrow afternoon," with a specific focus on ensuring that the Strait of Hormuz was reopened expeditiously.

Trump further claimed that he had scrapped his plans for what he personally described as "the biggest attack since World War II" after desperate appeals from Iran as well as regional allies.

"Now what we’re doing is we’re talking to them in the form of a negotiation," Trump told reporters over the weekend. "It begins tomorrow afternoon."
