Re: PA's US Senate Seat Election 2022
Fetterman wants to abolish the filibuster to pass gun control. If he gets in he may be the one that gives the Dems the ability to actually do that. Pretty clear cut. But Oz is so much worse. I don*t know why anyone would want to help Fetterman win.

Fetterman, the state*s lieutenant governor, said, *Democrats in the Senate need to scrap the filibuster and immediately pass common-sense reform like universal background checks for all gun sales and a ban on military-grade assault weapons and high capacity magazines.*Last edited by Ilikebuckets; July 6th, 2022 at 08:55 AM.

PA Dem Pushed COVID Lockdowns During Taxpayer-Funded Jersey Shore Vacay, Records Show
Senate candidate John Fetterman took $3,500 trip to Ocean City, N.J., in June 2020
Pennsylvania lieutenant governor John Fetterman (D.) took a taxpayer-funded security detail on a family vacation to the Jersey Shore while publicly advocating strict coronavirus lockdowns.
Pennsylvania state police spent $3,500 for overtime, food, and lodging during Fetterman’s trip to Ocean City, N.J., from June 24-27, 2020, according to records obtained by the Washington Free Beacon. Fetterman, the Democratic Senate nominee for Pennsylvania, made the trip amid a surge of cases in both New Jersey and Pennsylvania. The Pennsylvania Department of Health warned at the time against nonessential travel. New Jersey’s governor threatened to crack down on Jersey Shore revelers because of a spike in cases there two days before Fetterman’s junket.
Fetterman has aggressively pushed lockdowns, masking, and other measures to fight the pandemic. He vowed in March 2020 that he and his family would "stay at home, minimizing social interactions and trips to indoor public places." He criticized "a small, tiny minority" of anti-lockdown protesters in May 2020, and said "renegade counties" in his state had caused COVID-19 outbreaks by violating his administration’s stay-at-home orders. He also said school closures, which have caused learning and behavioral setbacks for school kids, were "an absolute necessity" in the fight against the virus.
Fetterman campaign spokesman Joe Calvello acknowledged the vacation but said that Alleghany County, where Fetterman resides, "was not in lock down" at the time of the trip. He said Fetterman has never claimed reimbursement for travel expenses and that he cut spending on travel, food, conferences and office supplies during his first two years in office.
"John and his family do take modest summer vacations like many folks in PA," Calvello told the Free Beacon.
A LendingTree study found that 88% of Pennsylvania residents canceled their vacations in 2020 because of the pandemic.
Fetterman’s security detail stayed during the 2020 trip at the Port-O-Call hotel, the "premier resort" where the Fettermans appear to have stayed during other vacations. While Fetterman did not post photos during the 2020 jaunt, as he did in other years, he was reportedly spotted maskless on the Ocean City boardwalk with his wife during the trip. Fetterman has been an avid supporter of universal-masking requirements during the pandemic. He urged people to "stay home," "stay apart," and mask up. He joins an extensive list of Democrats who have violated their own masking or social distancing policies.
State police spent $1,149 on security during Fetterman’s family vacation from July 5-8, 2021, according to state records. The Fettermans visited Ocean City again last month, as Fetterman was recovering from a near-fatal stroke that has kept him off the campaign trail since the middle of May.Ecclesiastes 10:2 ...........

Re: PA's US Senate Seat Election 2022
The medical geniuses, and expert bureaucrats believe we are dumb, and we know they are smart. Unelected medical experts like Dr Fauci, who's name has never appeared on a ballet flip flopped so many times on masks. Wear the mask, don't wear the mask. Wear 12 masks and don't forget your 17th booster ect ect. They all lie to our faces, and tell us not to believe our lying eyes. They've all done it, gone out maskless and blamed it on someone or something else. It's okay actually, I never wore the masks either. But come on man! We're not dumb. This whole thing has been a massive power grab. Why won't Biden end the federal emergency authority for Covid. Bc covid will always be here, it will and we just have to learn to live with it. However democrats will continue to use it to their advantage. It's not my fault I don't believe the ABC organizations, or dept of health. They lost their credibility. They want you to forget their egregious decisions and bad policies. We are all fed up with the narcissism and gaslighting.

Re: PA's US Senate Seat Election 2022
That is an incident that the Oz campaign needs to focus on and play over and over and over. Play clips of Democrats like Nutter questioning that.
Fetterman has been saying for over a year that the Democrats need to get rid of the Filibuster and *Ram Stuff through*. The quoted is his words.
He will not just be a yes vote for the Filibuster, he will be one of the ones calling for it and pushing for the filibuster if he gets in and the Dems remain in control of the Senate.
If the Dems do retain control of the Senate then they will say the election was about the filibuster and that America has given them the mandate to remove the filibuster.
The 2nd thing they will address once they decide to remove the filibuster will be gun control. Once they decide to do away with the filibuster they will find it easier and easier to just ignore it.
I don*t like that we have had to rely on people like the Oz*s of the world. But there is a difference between the Republican platform and Democratic platform. There is a difference between Fetterman and Oz. Oz is not who I wanted but that is the past.
I do think Oz will be better for the country than Fetterman so he is getting my vote and I will donate to his campaign to help keep Fetterman out.
Fetterman is overtly dangerous for anyone who values the 2nd Amendment. This is not hyperbole. This is based on his own words. We will not like a world where we cut off our nose to spite our face and let Fetterman get into office.
