Fetterman Denies Mental Health Allegations, Calls Report 'Hit Piece'

Senator John Fetterman has strongly denied allegations about his mental health and fitness for office following a New York Magazine article that cited current and former staffers expressing concerns about his behavior and medication adherence after his 2022 stroke. Fetterman dismissed the article as a 'hit piece' relying on anonymous, disgruntled sources, and insisted he is following his doctors' advice for depression treatment. He has previously been open about his struggles with clinical depression but rejected claims of any undisclosed mental health issues or erratic behavior. The senator emphasized his commitment to serving out his term and called the focus on his personal medical matters 'incredibly invasive.' The article referenced concerns raised by his former chief of staff in communications with Fetterman's doctors, but Fetterman maintains these claims are false and not reflective of his current condition.
