If there was an Oprah’s Book Club-Newspaper Division for political junkies, the current selection would hands-down be this article from the Wall Street Journal confirming everyone’s worst fears and best guesses about U.S. Sen. John Fetterman. How do we know everyone is reading about the state’s senior senator blowing off vets, belittling patient cost concerns from one of the world’s best children’s hospitals and doing his best Ferris Bueller for Senate attendance? By the savage tweets below:
