Toobin is th CNN pundit that was caught masturbating during a Zoom business meeting. Stroke is a euphemism for masturbation.

The highly developed arm muscles on the Toobin analogue makes it even funnier…

Sen. John Fetterman hospitalized after 'feeling lightheaded'

S⁠⁠en. John Fetterman has been hospitalized overnight following lightheadedness he experienced at a Senate retreat Wednesday.

"Towards the end of the Senate Democratic retreat today, Senator John Fetterman began feeling lightheaded," a statement from his office read.

The office said Fetterman, D-Pa., was in "good spirits and talking with his staff and family."

The hospitalization does not appear to be related to his previous stroke, the statement added.

"He left and called his staff, who picked him up and drove him to The George Washington University Hospital. Initial tests did not show evidence of a new stroke, but doctors are running more tests and John is remaining overnight for observation," it continued.

"We will provide more information when we have it," it concluded.

They elected him. They can live with him.

He's 53 years old, and in atrial fib which caused an embolic stroke. After being hospitalized for "dizziness," he's still in hospital.

I wonder if they found some cerebrovascular disease.

[Copper]

I wonder if his children will get neckties for the funeral.

Whoops! Sorry, wrong thread.

[Mik]

Buyer's remorse, comin' right up.

[Horace]

So he's brain damaged, and is diagnosed as mentally ill.

[Jolly]

Miss me yet?

[LuFins Dad]

I wish Senator Fetterman well in his recovery.

Why is he at Walter Reed? He’s not military.

[Jolly]

Senator.

And I think they are very good with mental issues.

[89th]

Wish him a quick recovery. Objectively, his mental complications were beyond apparent.

Rolling Stone:

Fetterman Joins Countless Other Lawmakers Who Have Sought Treatment at Hospital

SEN. JOHN FETTERMAN checked into Walter Reed on Wednesday night for clinical depression, his office announced on Thursday.

The first-term senator from Pennsylvania’s trip to Walter Reed comes a week after he was discharged from George Washington Hospital after he began feeling ill on a Senate Democratic retreat. It also comes after countless other lawmakers have checked into and out of hospitals to receive treatment for a variety of medical conditions.

“While John has experienced depression off and on throughout his life, it only became severe in recent weeks,” Adam Jentleson, Fetterman’s chief of staff, wrote in a statement, adding that the senator was evaluated on Monday and that he is receiving treatment voluntarily. “After examining John, the doctors at Walter Reed told us that John is getting the care he needs, and will soon be back to himself.”

After what he’s been through in the past year, there’s probably no one who wanted to talk about his own health less than John. I’m so proud of him for asking for help and getting the care he needs. pic.twitter.com/SfuwWTSUcG

John Fetterman isn't the first Senator to suffer from depression. But he's probably the first to publicly acknowledge he's getting treatment for it.

Past senators to be hospitalized for treatment include lawmakers highly venerated by their own parties and respected across the aisle. Late senators John McCain (R-Ariz.) and Edward Kennedy (D-Mass.) both were hospitalized repeatedly during their time in office for cancer treatment. Sens. Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.), Ben Ray Luján (D-N.M.), and Chris Van Hollen (D-Md.) all spent time in the hospital last year. Another prominent official who sought medical care while in office was former President Donald Trump, who stayed at Walter Reed while being treated for Covid-19.

Fetterman, who last November defeated Mehmet Oz in a highly publicized Senate race, has dealt with a variety of medical issues in the past year. He suffered a stroke last May, and was admitted to George Washington Hospital last week after feeling unwell as Senate Democrats visited the Library of Congress. He was discharged on Friday, with tests revealing no signs of a stroke or seizure, and returned to work on Capitol Hill on Monday.

The attempted spin is beyond hysterical. "Oh, lots of public figures have been sick. Fetterman's no different."

Not to diminish Fetterman's plight - the attempt to make it look like NBFD is laughable.
