We left our headline vague because we wanted you to guess who the New York Times was talking about. As we reported earlier, Drew Holden put together one of his masterful threads comparing the media’s coverage of Sen. Dianne Feinstein’s medical challenges to its coverage of Sen. John Fetterman. As Holden pointed out, the media is doing all they can to facilitate Feinstein being booted out of her seat, while running cover for Fetterman, who’s obviously not up to the job. Neither of them is.
Here’s some breaking news from the New York Times to add to the thread: Many people close to Feinstein call it “frightening” to see her operating in her current state.
Breaking News: Dianne Feinstein suffered previously undisclosed medical complications during her Senate absence, people close to her said. Many described it as “frightening” to see her operating in the Senate in her current state. https://t.co/OqerfkZPeM

They’re doing all they can to force Feinstein out at age 89, while at the same time trying to reelect a man who would be 86 at the end of his second term. But back to “frightening”:

If Feinstein isn't fit for Senate neither is Fetterman.

Now do Fetterman

Interesting. So it is possible for health information to leak to the media and for them to investigate it. https://t.co/eRbkI1VeLG

Notice how health information of Fettermen or the POTUS never leaks to the liberal broadsheets?

Why is it frightening for her to be in congress but not Fetterman?

Are they able to see Fetterman or nah?

Many of us are 'frightened' watching our president's deterioration.

That sounds misogynistic considering the new senator from Pennsylvania doesn’t get that much attention
— TheLeopard (@TheWhaleFace) May 18, 2023
And when he does get attention, it’s the Washington Post reprinting what was given to them by Fetterman’s office.
At this rate the entire Democratic Congressional delegation will be a giant Weekend at Bernie's group, zombies propped up and fed talking points and zingers from binders prepared by DNC heavy hitters and aides.

Man, was the readership pissed when the New York Times did a piece on where President Joe Biden stands, physically and mentally, at age 80. People were claiming to have canceled their subscriptions over that one.
