Sen. John Fetterman Hits Back at CEOs of Failed Banks

‘Shouldn’t you have a working requirement after [the U.S. bails out] your bank?’

During a hearing Tuesday with the execs of failed Silicon Valley Bank & Signature Bank, Sen. John Fetterman questioned why Republicans are ‘more preoccupied’ establishing work requirements for SNAP recipients than keeping banks accountable.

Term limits. Age limits. Cognitive tests. That’s the only bill Congress should be working on.

[littleredwagon]

I love the jump cuts needed to make him even remotely articulate.

[vicariousjohnson]

Nice job editing all of his stammering out so it sort of makes sense.

[joshhawkins]

Why did they edit the ramblings. We all have been waiting for this show. 😂

[Renaissance_Kamikaze]

Those are some tactical jump cuts almost as if Fetterman is not cognitively capable

[bigguy]

This is why other countries laugh at us.

[catherineciesla]

The fact that this is a clipped video and isn’t even as incoherent as the full thing… just wow.

[skeletonshorror]

Shame on Pennsylvania for electing this man - he should be in the hospital

[lynndragoman]

Proof that anybody can work for the government

[Thomas-mn]

Wow. Poor man. It's much worse than I thought.

[chrish]

Not even the heavy editing help him sound coherent. It was a year ago this month this man suffered a massive stroke and too much of the crucial six months of recovery time was wasted keeping his campaign going. He's being abused by his family and his party. He is a deeply damaged overwhelmed rambling yes vote and nothing more. No one is looking out for him. Feel sorry for him at this point.

[gullkilla]

Uhh, it still is incoherent with the cuts. Nice try though

[greekyadmin]

Why do we turn a blind eye to people that can’t perform their duties? Nothing to do with party affiliation.

[FuturesTradingGroup]

Hungry people should just work for congress, since there are apparently no prerequisites for that.

[diamondkharness]

Congress & the Supreme Court need massive ethics controls and penalties for taking corporate unethical donations/ bribes.

[Kent]

The gop is fine with corporate welfare (no strings attached)

[brendab.]

He's not even coherent! Him, Fienstien & Biden all need to take cognitive tests!

[randyscrafts]

Fetter needs rehabilitation. He's not quite right. He may need to resign.

[darnelljackson]

It's so tragic. He and Joe both need to be sent off to enjoy their golden years in some asylum for the mentally unwell.

[bradwiller]

He's talking about corn pop and how he was a baaaad dude. Come on man!
