Right-wing groups have been working with Sen. John Fetterman of Pennsylvania behind the scenes to get Trump-sympathetic voters’ attention, according to reporting from The Atlantic and The Intercept.

“I thought you would be interested in this high-performing Fetterman copy,” Leah Mergener, an account associate at the GOP-aligned firm Blitz Digital Group, wrote in a message.

The Atlantic reported that the fundraising push was signed by Fetterman and included links to donate to his own campaign. The text push also included a message from Fetterman reading “I’m always going to reject Socialism and the anti-American way of life,” and warned that socialists are “hijacking the Democratic party.”

The money is also flowing through Anedot, a payment processing system that is used by Republicans.

This comes after his relationship with the Democratic-aligned digital fundraising firm, MissionWired, ended in June.

“MissionWired ended its engagement with Senator Fetterman’s campaign in June 2026,” Kate Kline, the firm’s CEO, told The Atlantic in a statement. “We had no involvement in a revenue-sharing plan with Republican entities, and if we had become aware, we would have objected to the strategy and refused the work.”

Fetterman previously sent out fundraising requests with the plea his wife and kids were receiving death threats and harassment from Republicans. This isn’t stroke behavior, he is a professional conman.

I agree. If you watch Jon Stewart interview him, he feigns not understanding when it gets uncomfortable. During another pod, Jon was discussing with his fellow podders that he felt kind of bad about how hard he was on Fetterman. The fellow podders said someone after the pod and behind the scenes, asked Fetterman about something. Fetterman pulled a GOP and asked who they were with and got in their face about it. Conman to the core.

When he leaves the Senate, he will be offered a gig at Fox. Spouting nonsense as novelty entertainment, like the Mad Prophet in Network.

The only thing conservatives love more than Democrats complaining about progressives is people of color saying that racism isn't real.

Secret? I thought it was pretty obvious.

He's using Republican services and working with them, I'd say he kept that under wraps.

Great timing to board a sinking ship. What a moron.

A small splash of fash cash can be very convincing. The ship isn't sinking, until all the funding is diverted.

Maybe he just likes being in the minority party so he can fulfill a sub kink

The world’s baldest prostitute, everybody.

The mumbles from beneath the Resolute Desk tell me Herr Miller would disagree.

he reminds me of musk but his is brain damage as opposed to drugs.

Daily Beast is a terrible shit rag. The constantly overstate everything, even when they're right.
