Fetterman Calls Trump Posts ‘Dangerous,’ ‘Deeply Wrong’
Senator Fetterman condemned President Trump's threats after Democratic veterans urged military refusal of unlawful orders, calling the rhetoric dangerous and unacceptable.
- On Thursday, U.S. Sen. John Fetterman, D‑Pennsylvania, rejected President Donald Trump's posts on Truth Social and X threatening Members of Congress, condemning 'SEDITIOUS BEHAVIOR, punishable by DEATH.'
- The video this week showed Sen. Elissa Slotkin, Sen. Mark Kelly and Reps. Jason Crow, Chris Deluzio, Maggie Goodlander and Chrissy Houlahan urging service members they do not have to carry out illegal orders, prompting Trump's posts targeting these lawmakers.
- Fetterman posted a photo showing he received 20 stitches, and his team said he fell near his Braddock, western Pennsylvania home earlier this week after a ventricular fibrillation flare‑up and has fully recovered.
- Other Democratic lawmakers said threatening arrest, trial and death by hanging is beyond the pale and vowed to keep defending the Constitution.
- Critics warned the exchange risks pitting military and intelligence communities against civilians and amplifying threats to constitutional norms as posts spread on Truth Social and X.
