Fetterman Takes Shot at ‘Ethically-Challenged’ Dem, Posts Video With ‘Advice’ From a ‘Seasoned Expert’

Sen. John Fetterman (D-Pa.) is not shying away from taking shots at one of his Democratic colleagues.

On Monday, Fetterman continued to take aim at Sen. Bob Menendez (D-N.J.), who is facing federal corruption charges -- which he denies.

"I thought my ethically-challenged colleague [Menendez] could use some encouragement given his substantial legal problems," the Pennsylvania senator wrote on X.

He added, "So, I approached a seasoned expert on the matter to give ‘Bobby from Jersey’ some advice."

He then shared a video from celebrity message service Cameo featuring former Rep. George Santos (R-N.Y.), who was expelled from Congress last week after a scorching report conducted by the House Ethics Committee.

"Hey, Bobby! Uh look, I don't think I need to tell you, but these people that want to make you get in trouble and want to kick you out and make you run away, you make 'em put up or shut up. You stand your ground sir!" Santos said in the video.

He added, "And don't get bogged down by all the haters out there. Stay strong. Merry Christmas!"

Fetterman argued on ABC's "The View" on Friday that Menendez is "more sinister" than Santos.

"If you are going to expel Santos, how can you allow somebody like Menendez to remain in the Senate? And, you know, Santos is kind of — his lies were almost, you know, funny and like he landed on the moon and that kind of stuff,” Fetterman insisted.

By contrast, he said, “I think Menendez, I think is really a senator for Egypt. You know, not New Jersey. So I really think he needs to go.”

In September, Menendez and his wife were indicted on federal corruption charges. Officials allege the Democratic senator accepted bribes and used his position to benefit the Egyptian government.

He has denied the charges and refused to step down.
