The former chief of senator cabinet John Fetterman, a Democrat of Pennsylvania, was so alarmed with the erratic behavior of his former boss last year that he wrote a letter to his doctor warning that the sate was on a spiral and his issues of issues issued issues emitted emits emitting emitters emitters emitters emitters emitters ISSES ISSES ISSES ISSES ISSE Issess issess issess isseess issess issess issess isseless issess isseless isseless issess issess isseess isseless isseeses isseless.
“I worry that if John remains in his current career, he won with us for much longer,” wrote Adam Jentleson, the former chief of cabinet, on May 20 to a doctor who had treated Mr. Fetterman at the Walter Reed National Military Medical Center.
Mr. Fetterman’s behavior, according to the old assistants who are still connected to their decreasing circle, is still sometimes a cause of concern. Other former members of their staff speak in a condition of anonymity, they report that their believers were sometimes calculated to be in the presence of the senator, if I was in Amped Humor.
They have also warned that they are never warned in a car if Mr. Fetterman is behind the steering wheel due to his dangerous driving habits. His volatile and worrying behavior, which was noticed last year was worsening, has only increased the elections, people who have passed with him said. That has coincided with a period in which its policy has become more conservative, since it has seen its native state of Pennsylvania balance by Trump.
“He does not see his doctors,” Jentleson wrote last year to the medical director who supervised his hospitalization of 2023 due to mental health problems. “I am not sure when I saw a cardiologist for the last time, but I don’t think Sen One since they were released. Hey has long ordered us to stop regularly falling Dr. Monahan at his time, despite the fact that he had accepted those as as part of the plan.” Dr. Brian P. Monahan is the navy doctor who has served for almost 15 years as a doctor on the site in the Capitol.
Mr. Jentleson’s letter, which was obtained by the New York Times, was first reported by New York magazine.
Mr. Fetterman said in a statement that “my real doctors and my family said I am very well.” He called the article of New York magazine as a “successful article” and suggested that Mr. Jentleson and the author of the article, Ben Terris, were “best friends” with a joint ax to grind, and “obtained anonymous employees and unhappy employees with distorted true lies or half.”
(Mr. Terris revealed in his article that Mr. Jentleson is a personal friend).
A spokesman for Mr. Fetterman also raised questions on Friday about Mr. Jentleson’s motivations to make the public a deeply personal letter, given the stigmas that already exist around mental health problems among men.
Mr. Jentleson refused to respond.
Mr. Fetterman, the senator of the first mandate of Pennsylvania who had an almost fatal blow in his campaign, spent six weeks in Walter Rode in 2023 being treated for clinical depression. When he was released, Mr. Fetterman seemed to have folded a corner. Hello, adapt to your life in the Senate, mixing it with reporters and colleagues in the halls, and considered it a unique responsibility to talk about mental health problems.
“It is a burden, but also a privilege to talk about it,” he told New York Times in an interview in 2023. That. “
The auditory processing problems associated with their stroke also seemed to decrease, and Mr. Fetterman began to chat casually with people without having to trust audio transcription.
As has been adjusted to life as a senator, Mr. Fetterman also became more conservative, mainly in Israel, but also in a range or other issues. The senator was the first Democrat to meet with Trump on his Mar-A-Lago farm after the elections and seemed to think that finding a common land was politically expert at a time when his state was balanced further to the right.
Avid Fox News Watcher, Mr. Fetterman, even seriously voted to confirm the Secretary of Defense, Pete Hegseeth, a former weekend presenter in “Fox & Friends”, according to a former assistant. The vote would have indicated a green light to a designated by the cabinet that faced accusations of excessive consumption of drinking and abusing women who even made it difficult for Republican senators to support it.
It is not clear for all those who have worked closely with him that Mr. Fetterman’s political transformation, or his current challenges, is directly related to the mental health crisis that first sent him to the hospital two years ago. But in his letter, Mr. Jentleson describes unstable behavior, says the result of the failure of the senator to follow the medical plan, including the taking of prescription, outlined and then by their doctors.
“John has expelled all who were supposed to help him keep him in his recovery plan,” Jentleson wrote in the letter to Dr. David Williamson, the medical director of the Neuropsychiatry/Traumatic brain injury unit in Walter Reed. “We don’t know if he is prohibiting his medications, and his behavior often suggests that it is not.”
He said in the letter that the people around Mr. Fetterman were often witnessed by the “warning signs” of which his doctor had warned, including “conspirator thought, Megalomania (for example, he, claims to be the most knowledgeable source of Israel and Gaza, but its sour and their righteous, what only do you have to only?
Hey said Fetterman spent most of his time by moving on his phone and formulating tweets, and those things with his wife, Gisele, were “tens.”
“It gets involved in risky behavior. Drive Recklesly. He also recently bought a gun.” Mr. Jentleson wrote, noting that buying a firearm was a warning sign that he had ordered the leg to be reported to a medical professional.
Gisele Fetterman, in a statement to New York magazine, disputed the claims in Mr. Jentleson’s letter, accusing him or lying on the condition of her husband.
In recently, Mrs. Fetterman has presented a united front with her husband. She accompanied him to his visit to Mar-a-Lago after the elections, and a meeting in Israel last month with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
Even so, many in their staff remain anxious to work for Mr. Fetterman, whose mood can change drastically from one day to another. Its driving is still an area or a partular concern.
The senator has been known for a long time as an imprudent driver, sometimes going more than 70 miles per Hor Hor in an area of 30 miles per hour. Last year, he and his wife, as well as a 62 -year -old woman, were hospitalized after the woman’s car was stirred on the Eisenhower memorial highway in western Maryland.
Mr. Fetterman was driving well above the published speed limit of 70 miles per hour, according to the police report. Penylvania records indicated that Mr. Fetterman had at least two previous driving infractions in the state in which more than 20 miles per hour was above the speed limit.
