A spokesman for freshman Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) said Thursday evening that hospital tests show no signs of a new stroke and that he is being held for testing for a seizure with no sign of one detected so far. No diagnosis has been given yet for the reported lightheadedness that prompted Fetterman’s trip to George Washington University Hospital in Northwest Washington, D.C. Wednesday evening.

“NEWS: About an hour ago Sen. Fetterman received the results of his MRI. According to John’s doctors at The George Washington University Hospital, the results of the MRI, along with the results of all of the other tests the doctors ran, rule out a new stroke…John is being monitored with an EEG for signs of seizure – so far there are no signs of seizure, but he is still being monitored. Our team will continue to provide information as it comes in and we will have more updates as we get them.”

Fetterman suffered a debilitating stroke last May before the Democrat primary. His wife Gisele and staff delayed informing the public about the stroke and then covered up how devastating the stroke was until after the primary. Fetterman delayed a general election debate until after early voting had started in an effort to prevent voters from seeing how difficult it was for him to function. Fetterman won the general election and here we are.

Watch the full question, and then watch the full answer.

It feels politically and medically unethical to have Fetterman run for office right now. If the media can't cover this very serious issue after the debate, they are truly hopeless. pic.twitter.com/9ByAZiipA7

Metropolitan Police arrested the man who attacked a Democrat Congresswoman in DC earlier Thursday.

Democrat Rep. Angie Craig (MN) was assaulted in her DC apartment building on Thursday morning and was left bruised and shaken.

Police said the Representative said “good morning” to the assailant as she was entering the elevator to go up to her apartment.

The suspect was reportedly doing push-ups in the elevator before he assaulted the lawmaker.

“This morning around 7:15 am, Rep. Craig was assaulted in the elevator of her apartment building in Washington DC. Rep. Craig defended herself from the attacker and suffered bruising, but otherwise is physically okay,” Craig’s office said.

“There is no evidence that the incident was politically motivated,” the statement said.

“Minnesota Rep. Angie Craig threw hot coffee on man who grabbed her neck and punched her in the chin in an apartment elevator, according to a D.C. police report. Assailant got away.” – according to a statement from Capitol Police.
