It’s petition season! Feb 18th through March 11th. What’s petition season? It’s the time of year when candidates and their volunteers get signatures from voters, usually in their party, to get on the primary ballot. Primary: Tuesday, May 20th. Candidate Positions: County Council, Court of Common Pleas, School Board, Township Commissioner (among other county and local positions). If a volunteer knocks your door, it’s to see if you want to add your signature to get candidates on the ballot. 🇺🇸 ... See MoreSee Less

When this happens, it's usually because the owner only shared it with a small group of people, changed who can see it or it's been deleted.Tonight Senator John Fetterman betrayed the voters of Pennsylvania. He was the lone Democrat who voted to confirm Pam Bondi, an election denier, as the next Attorney General. Pam came to PA with Rudy Guliani in 2020 to declare Trump the winner of the state while election workers were still counting 1,000,000 mail-in ballots. She still to this day denies the results of that election. What did he stand to gain by voting for her confirmation tonight? One must wonder.Please call and ask him. 202-224-4254 ... See MoreSee Less
I just called at this number given a d left a voice message.
His Philly line disconnects when you try to leave a message. What’s happened to him?
He has joined the Maga Cult🤮 Needs to be voted out 2028!
I’m so disappointed in him. I just called about two other issues. I will include this in my call tomorrow.
No more money for Fetterman when he needs it to run for office again.
I am cracking up over the right wing haters who legit hated him for several years, made fun of his clothes, called him a slob, offered ill wishes when he was unwell are suddenly SO supportive!
John Federman ,nothing but a maggot. If I wanted a maggot I would have voted for Doctor oz, Never again
I plan on calling tomorrow
Can not wait to primary this guy
He betrayed us.
I called him. I left him a message and let him know that I was a Delaware county Democratic committee person. I explained that we are his built-in campaign infrastructure, and that we supported him through his stroke. That we cannot in good conscience support him further with actions like this. We will find a primary challenger and endorse that challenger.
So disappointing! Our whole country and democracy is at stake and he does this?? Wow, just wow…
I can’t believe he is the same person. He needs to be voted out!
I had heard rumors he was going to flip...and there you go...
Will never vote for him again.
Ive been calling his office .no idea i think he was given the orange kool aid .in fla last month
Yes he absolutely has. He forgets where he came from.
Someone who thinks critically and does not just regurgitate the democratic talking points. Thank you, Senator. 👍
You all calling other people election deniers is fncking hilarious... 🤣🤣🤣

He had guts to go against all you liberal leftist democrats.
Thank you John Fetterman. Thank you for honoring the majority vote of Pennsylvanians and supporting Pam Bondi. U.S. Senator John Fetterman
Wise and important words from sociologist Jennifer Walter about what is happening in our country right now and what to do about it:"As a sociologist, I need to tell you:Your overwhelm is the goal.1/ The flood of 200+ executive orders in Trump's first days exemplifies Naomi Klein's "shock doctrine" - using chaos and crisis to push through radical changes while people are too disoriented to effectively resist. This isn't just politics as usual - it's a strategic exploitation of cognitive limits.2/ Media theorist McLuhan predicted this: When humans face information overload, they become passive and disengaged. The rapid-fire executive orders create a cognitive bottleneck, making it nearly impossible for citizens and media to thoroughly analyze any single policy.3/ Agenda-setting theory explains the strategy: When multiple major policies compete for attention simultaneously, it fragments public discourse. Traditional media can't keep up with the pace, leading to superficial coverage.The result? Weakened democratic oversight and reduced public engagement.What now?1/ Set boundaries: Pick 2-3 key issues you deeply care about and focus your attention there. You can't track everything - that's by design. Impact comes from sustained focus, not scattered awareness.2/ Use aggregators & experts: Find trusted analysts who do the heavy lifting of synthesis. Look for those explaining patterns, not just events.3/ Remember: Feeling overwhelmed is the point. When you recognize this, you regain some power. Take breaks. Process. This is a marathon.4/ Practice going slow: Wait 48hrs before reacting to new policies. The urgent clouds the important. Initial reporting often misses context5/ Build community: Share the cognitive load. Different people track different issues. Network intelligence beats individual overload.Remember: They want you scattered. Your focus is resistance. ... See MoreSee Less
