Staged Photos of John Fetterman at Walter Reed Hospital Published; No Video

Staged photos of a gaunt looking Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) taken at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in Bethesda, Maryland were posted online Monday afternoon by Fetterman’s chief of staff Adam Jentleson. Three photos of Fetterman meeting with Jentleson were posted purportedly showing the two men in conversation, however Fetterman does not appear to be using his translation device.

No videos were released of Fetterman, so other than seeing he’s lost so much weight he looks like a POW, his overall condition cannot be determined. However, if he were well enough to speak coherently his staff would surely release a video of Fetterman thanking his supporters for their well wishes.

Fetterman, who suffered a debilitating stroke last May from which he has not recovered, has not been seen or heard from since he was hospitalized for clinical depression on February 15 because he had become a danger to himself by not feeding or hydrating himself properly, which led to a trip to George Washington University Hospital in Washington, D.C. the week before where he was diagnosed with depression but did not inform the public until a week later when he was admitted to the psyche ward at Walter Reed.

Jentleson’s caption, “Productive morning with Senator Fetterman at Walter Reed discussing the rail safety legislation, Farm Bill and other Senate business. John is well on his way to recovery and wanted me to say how grateful he is for all the well wishes. He’s laser focused on PA & will be back soon.”

‘Wife of the year’ Gisele Fetterman who, when John went to Walter Reed, fled the country with the couple’s three children for a Canadian ziplining adventure rather than race to her husband’s side, called her husband’s psyche ward photos “cute”:

“Society’s expectations and traditional gender roles play a part in why men are less likely to discuss or seek help for their mental health. As always, John continues to challenge the conversation. So human, so kind, so cute”

Gisele posted from Braddock, PA, indicating she is not with her husband at the hospital.

John Fetterman has not been able to function as a Senator since being sworn in on January 3rd. He rapidly deteriorated in front of his staff in the mere weeks he has been in Washington. Gisele abandoned him in D.C., choosing to stay at home in Braddock, Pennsylvania rather than move the family to D.C to make sure her husband was taken care of as he adjusted to a high stress job while trying to recover from his stroke.

Fetterman fell apart while his wife and staff rode him into the ground. They have tried to make him a hero to the mentally ill because his staff disclosed his treatment for clinical depression. Fetterman is no hero. He, Gisele and his staff have lied about and misrepresented his health challenges since before his stroke when they failed to disclose he had a bad heart until events force their hand with the stroke because the bad heart caused the stroke. They then downplayed the stroke until his one debate. Then they said nothing as he struggled in D.C. until he was admitted for “lightheadedness”, but did not say he was suffering from depression until a week later when again events forced their hand. Even then they downplayed it, making it seem like Fetterman was actively sponsoring bills and signing letters from the hospital, but providing no proof of his well being until Monday. The fact that it took almost three weeks to release three staged photos but no video is telling that they are still not telling the whole truth about Fetterman’s condition.

Illinois Launches African Descent-Citizens Reparations Commission Website

The lunatics running Illinois into the ground are taking another step toward the destruction of the state.  The African Descent-Citizens Reparations Commission (ADCRC) was established a few years ago to bring “equity focus on African American communities and residents that have been disproportionally impacted by longstanding disinvestment due to direct and systemic repercussions of slavery.”

The Illinois Department of Central Management Services (CMS) has now announced that a new website for the ADCRC has been launched.

Illinois is one of several areas looking into reparations including  California  and Massachusetts. 

While the virtue signaling is grand, the economic details of how this would actually be accomplished are few and far between.

The Gateway Pundit’s Cristina Laila pointed out in her article on California’s reparations committee that their proposal would cost the taxpayers an eyepopping $559 billion. The current California state budget is $308 billion.

According to the ADCRC website:

The African Descent-Citizens Reparations Commission (ADCRC), authorized by 20 ILCS 405/405-540 and is charged with surveying the State procurement process to make recommendations, hold meetings, provide reports and discuss and perform actions concerning:

Preservation of African American neighborhoods and communities Building and developing vocational centers for People of African Descent-Citizens Ensuring proportional economic representation in all State contracts Creation and enforcement of an Illinois Slavery Era Disclosure Bill

“The Commission shall develop and implement measures to ensure equity, equality, and parity for African American descendants of slavery; hold hearings to discuss the implementation of those measures; educate the public on reparations for African American descendants of slavery; report to the General Assembly information and findings regarding the work of the Commission; discuss and perform actions regarding preservation of African American neighborhoods, building and development of a Vocational Training Center for People of African Descent-Citizens, ensuring proportional representation in all State contracts, and creation and enforcement of an Illinois Slavery Era Disclosure Bill.”

A press release from the commission announces,  “A critical first step in the work of the ADCRC is collaborative public engagement which includes both educating and hearing from the public concerning the ongoing impacts of slavery, along with the need to employ reparative justice strategies for American Descendants of Slavery,” said Marvin Slaughter, ADCRC Chair, “The Commission will be taking a holistic approach to gain knowledge to inform our task of making recommendations that address disparities present in our community as a result of slavery and its vestiges.”

“I am looking forward to the engaging and innovative work that will be done by the Commission to help remedy long standing inequities in black communities across the state,” said ADCRC Commissioner and State Representative Sonya Harper (D-Chicago), “I encourage residents to follow along to learn and provide feedback as we figure out what reparations for descendants of slavery looks like in Illinois.”

“The ADCRC is actively seeking engagement throughout all areas of the State of Illinois and looking to expand. Illinois residents with education or background in reparations work, particularly African American descendants of slavery, are encouraged to apply for consideration to serve on the ADCRC, as resident voices play a vital role in promoting efficient, effective, and honest government.”

The Illinois Department of Central Management Services (CMS) announced today the launch of a website for the African Descent-Citizens Reparations Commission (ADCRC).
