Like most Democrats, I think Fetterman should step down and let the governor of PA appoint a replacement. I doubt the people of PA appreciate him missing votes and not showing up for work.

But a $36,000 junket to a foreign country is not something new for politicians. And while I think that trinkets that commemorate military attacks is tacky and probably illegal for Fetterman to accept, it's laughable to call it a "terrifying violation of international law," especially in today's context.

Does the Intercept have anything to say about Trump? Didn't think so.
