Ex-Fetterman staffers promise more damaging details after blistering report: ‘Tip of the iceberg’
Ex-Fetterman staffers promise more damaging details after blistering report: ‘Tip of the iceberg’
In just over a week, former staffers for John Fetterman, D-Pa., are planning to go public with inside details after expressing what they called disgust at his work as a legislator.
“We’re a group of former campaign & Senate staffers for John Fetterman who are disgusted with what he’s become. If you were troubled by yesterday’s Wall Street Journal story… trust us, that’s just the tip of the iceberg,” the group wrote in a post to X.
“It’s even worse than you thought.”
The new social media account, which is calling itself “Former Fetterman Staffers” (FFS) claims it will reveal additional unflattering details about the embattled senator’s office as he also faces blowback over Wall Street Journal reporting chronicling his reluctance to engage in the basic duties of his office.

Fetterman routinely blew off constituent meetings, neglected legislative review and declined to make in-state public appearances, according to a Wall Street Journal report published Thursday, drawing immediate backlash online.
“There is a lot I could say about this report of John Fetterman’s pathetic behavior as a senator,” Rep. Chris Deluzio, D-Pa., said on X. “But between the laziness, disrespect, and willingness to carry water for a foreign government, it shows us something we already know: this man has no sense of duty.”
“John Fetterman is a disgrace,” Rep. Brendan Boyle, D-Pa., said in a post of his own. “Our state deserves better than a lazy trust fund baby who is too lazy to do the job.”
Pennsylvania state Rep. Malcolm Kenyatta, who is the vice chair of the Democratic National Committee, also condemned Fetterman’s behavior.
“This report is horrifying, but not new to many of us in PA. John barely showed up as [Lieutenant Governor] and is constantly MIA as our senator,” Kenyatta wrote.
“When he’s not on FOX cheerleading Trump & endless wars, he is attacking the very neighbors who gave him a chance. 2028 can’t come soon enough.”

Conor Lamb, a former Pennsylvania congressman who ran against Fetterman in the 2022 primary for the party’s nomination, called on Fetterman to resign.
“John, if there is a decent bone left in your body, just quit. It’s an insult to decent people in our state for you to treat them and the office this way,” Lamb wrote, referring to an instance where Fetterman blew off a meeting with paralyzed military veterans.
As reactions continue to pour in, Former Fetterman Staffers, the new group on X, told viewers that they would set a deadline for some of its upcoming revelations.
“Set your calendar for September 14th — the day the Senate is back in session — for our first drop. (Let’s be honest, maybe the 15th: he’ll skip Monday’s votes),” the group said.
Despite raising questions and rage toward Fetterman, some observers condemned the staffers for what they called a lack of loyalty.
“So disloyal. He gave you jobs and opportunities and advanced your careers, and you publicly turn on him and set up an X account to attack him?” Marc Thiessen, a political pundit and former White House speechwriter for the Bush administration, wrote on X.
“Honorable thing, if you disagree, is to resign quietly and work for someone else you prefer. You are pathetic.”
Mark Morgan, political director for the Republican Governors Association, echoed Thiessen’s thinking, blasting the group for its anonymity.
“Staff rule #1: it’s not about you Staff rule #2: Your boss had the courage to put their name on a ballot. If you’ve chosen to become a click-seeking bottom feeder, at least have the courage to put your own name on it,” Morgan said.
