Noted Pennsylvania correspondent Salena Zito had her eyes opened with Sen. John Fetterman’s pushback at Rep. Lauren Boebert’s criticism of his personal dress code:
Four days after Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) tweeted he was driving to Michigan to join the United Auto Workers on the picket line, and two days after Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) eased the Senate’s dress code so the junior senator from Pennsylvania could wear the gym clothes he favors, Fetterman issued a vulgar post on the social media platform X (formerly Twitter) in response to a news story about upending norms.
“I figure if I take up vaping and grabbing the hog during a live musical, they’ll make me a folk hero,” the U.S. senator posted. He was referring to an incident in which Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) was kicked out of a musical for vaping and fondling her date during the show.
