There were and present employees express concerns about the well -being of Senator John Fetterman, and his former head of the staff paints the mental health of the senator, who had previously undergone the treatment of clinical depression, more tragically than he had previously informed.
Adam Jentleson, former chief of Staff of Fetterman, wrote a message E -Mail to the medical director of traumatic brain damage and the neuropsychiatry department at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center last year, worried about the trajectory of Fetterman’s behavior, according to the profile published on Friday in New York Magazine. Revelation caused questions about Fetterman’s efficiency to the office.
In February 2023, a month after he was sworn in, Pennsylvania’s Democrat was admitted to Walter Reed as mental health and released a month later with a recovery plan – blood work, remaining on medication, exercises – which seemed to work. But his irregular behavior, according to New York Magazine, seemed to create a tense dynamics with his wife Gisele and his colleagues on Capitol.
Last month, Fetterman, with whom an interview at New York Magazine was conducted, insisted that nothing was bad. He said that all former employees would not learn about his personal health, and those who commented on them were “dissatisfied employees.” He had no comment when he was asked if there was truth for employees about potential recurrence and whether he was taking the necessary medicines. Fetterman’s representatives did not answer immediately at the request of the questioner for a comment.
The senator, who took office in January 2023, experienced other health fights during elections in 2022, when he suffered a stroke at the Campaign House against the Republican Mehmet Oz.
Fetterman is often ready to cross party lines, which often attract the anger of their own voters. At one point he had to refute the rumors that he switched to the Republican party. According to an interview from the magazine in New York, employees were not sure if some of his dividing decisions, such as visiting Trump in Mar-a-LagoHe was the result of his mental health.
Fetterman’s support for Israel and regression in his recovery
E-mail from May 2024 from Jentleson to David Williamson, a doctor Walter Reed, who supervised Fetterman’s care when the senator was looking for depression treatment in 2023, was particularly concerned about a few concerns about the well-being of democrat.
According to the 1600-lover magazine, according to the magazine, he showed Jentleson depicting Williamson “a kind of discussed warning signs”, including “underground thinking; megalomania (for example, he claims that he is the most competent source on Israel and gas around it, but its sources are only what he reads in news-he never reads).
After the beginning of the war of Israel-Hamasu on October 7, 2023, Fetterman’s support for Israel became one of his main problems. He mentioned gifts with the prime minister of Israel Benjamin Netanyahu, and in last year he received the “Defender of Israel” award from the Zionist organization of America.
The defense of the senator in Israel, however, coincided with seemingly retrograde in its recovery, said New York Magazine. At that time he was behind the work of blood – a key part of his plan to recover.
The next part of this recovery plan was a suggestion for Fetterman to avoid social media, but the war with gauze recalled the senator back to X. At some point, according to the magazine article, a meme published on the media account of the senator forced the pushing between Fetterman and his employees who could take it off.
But apparently, the employee said, Fetterman did not want to admit “Woke Mob”.
One of the most stunning statements of Fetterman about the war and his opposition to the suspension of weapons was: “Let’s go back to killing,” according to the magazine article.
He denied this memory of events and said to New York Magazine: “All reference to killing concerned only Hamas, and I support the destruction of this organization until its last member.”
New claims regarding Gisele Fetterman injuries in a car accident, try with her husband’s policy
Fetterman’s support for Israel – and other problems – apparently it was also a point of dispute between him and his wife, Gisele, philanthropist and non -profit leader, who is a former undocumented immigrant from Brazil.
According to the article from the magazine in New York, Gisele came to the Senate office of Fetterman I, according to the employee, dealt with the argument regarding Israel’s attacks on gauze.
“They bombard refugee camps. How can you support it?” The employee remembered how he said that the magazine informed.
He assured her that it was all propaganda. And ultimately, according to the magazine, Gisele, which is a key part of his political brand, he asked for help in separating from his husband’s position to Israel.
The magazine informed that in their relationship other moments of frustration and tension, including Fetterman, was reporting, pushing her to travel with him to Mar-a-Lago (which she finally did), a seemingly accidental journey took place, which made him leave his children’s birthday, and Gisele refused to talk to Fetterman.
Gisele said New York Magazine: “I’ll talk to John’s doctors about what Adam [Jentleson] He told me and will be confused. These doctors would tell me that their fears did not apply to John, but with Adam. All alleged “fears” heard from me came straight from these lies, not from Jan’s doctors or my own eyes. “
She was also with Fetterman at a particularly terrifying moment in June 2024, when he was driving at a speed of 70 miles per hour-“high speed, much above the published speed limit”, in accordance with the police report-on the intercool 70 in Hancock, MD., And his Chevrolet Traverse hit Chevrolet Impalia, who was led by a 62-year-old woman, who was led by a 62-year-old woman from Pennsylvania.

As previously reported by Inquirer, Gisele and her husband were taken to the hospital with great caution. But more details were revealed when New York Magazine announced that Gisele had a lung injury and spinal fractures, and that Fetterman, who has the history of reckless driving behavior and was “guilt” because of an accident, called the employee and said he fell asleep in a circle.
Struggling with the duties of the Senate, including the HegeSeth nomination
Fetterman’s openness to GOP has taken various forms. For example, he created an account on Trump’s social platform, Truth Social and expressed his readiness to support several presidential elections of the president’s office during the confirmation of the Senate at the beginning of this year.
However, in particular, one approaching confirmation seemed to be very disturbing Fetterman, New York Magazine informed because he was torn or vote for the then nominated secretary for protection, Pete HegeSth, who met with allegations of sexual assault and alcohol abuse.
According to the article, Fetterman suggested that he should escape from Washington to the house of his parents in York, Pa. Fetterman’s pressure was confirmed by HegeStha, as well as rumors about his leaving the Democratic Party, apparently caused the senator to close in his office, fighting with his wife and cried when he was at his waist.
Ultimately, Fetterman did not vote for HegeSeth.
The New York magazine, New York Magazine, is largely insulated, is largely insulated. He took out the chat of the Democratic group of Kauck, rarely participates in interrogations, left more votes in the first quarter of 2025 than any other senator, and had oral arguments with other senators. There were days when employees had to protect him from someone outside the office, in case he acted constantly towards voters.
Shortly before the admission of Fetterman to Walter Reed in 2023, Sen. Sherrod Brown (D., Ohio) went to visit Fetterman in his new Capitol Hill I office, despite Brown’s best efforts, Fetterman was “catatonic”.
However, it seems that he has several friends, namely Senator Peter Welch (D., VT.) And Sen. Katie Britt (R., Ala.), Who from time to time ate together and shared stories about their families.
Welch said that when he visited Fetterman in Walter Reed, it was like “seeing a friend who was in a really rugged shape he suddenly was his venerable self.”
