JUST IN: Top Democrat Senator Joins Truth Social, Rips Alvin Bragg’s Trump Prosecutions

Truth Social is no longer only for the MAGA crowds after an influential Democratic U.S. senator joined the platform to rip Alvin Bragg’s prosecution of President-elect Donald Trump.

Pennsylvania Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) has been on a vengeance tour lately, raising his post-election profile with a series of head-turning moments on cable news and podcasts, questioning the doctrine of the Democratic Party and offering explanations for why Trump carried his home state. Not content with being a filtered on-air guest, Fetterman created his own Truth Social account on Tuesday and posted his first “truth” about the Manhattan district attorney’s politicized case.

“The Trump hush money and Hunter Biden cases were both bulls***,” he wrote, “and pardons are appropriate.” His salvo at Bragg and the U.S. Justice Department was first sent last week while appearing on ABC’s “The View” and schooling the daytime show’s liberal hosts about the lack of evidence against Trump. “Weaponizing the judiciary for blatant, partisan gain diminishes the collective faith in our institutions and sows further division,” read his post.

Elected in 2022, Fetterman is no stranger to courting controversy no matter what platform he happens to appear on. He arrived on Capitol Hill clad in nothing but hooded sweatshirts and jeans, which provoked controversy when Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) relaxed the chamber’s dress codes to allow Fetterman to stroll the Senate floor without a formal suit. Although he rode into office on a wave of progressive, populist resentment, Fetterman has since pivoted to become a contrarian within his own party, prompting scorn from former staffers and fellow Democrats. However, no one can say Fetterman, 55, hasn’t worked overtime to sow his warnings about why he believes the Democratic Party is headed off an electoral cliff.

In August, he caused headaches for Vice President Kamala Harris’s campaign by predicting that President-elect Trump would carry Pennsylvania on his strength with working-class white voters, especially men. His prediction proved prescient: despite her deluge of ads and field workers, Harris lost the swing state by about 120,000 votes, or 1.7%.

Fetterman used his time on “The View” last week to chastise gleeful Democrats hoping that Trump’s New York conviction would spell the end of his campaign. “I’m talking about the New York trial and now the Democrats on our side, there were some that were gleeful calling — now he’s a convicted felon and those things. And now for our party, we were talking about criminal justice, and we are now talking about second chances and now, all of a sudden, now you’re like, well, he’s a convicted felon and all these things,” Fetterman responded when Joy Behar asked about Trump’s plan to pardon J6 prisoners. “And now clearly, again, both of those trials, the Hunter Biden one and the trial in New York for Trump, that was clearly those [were] politically motivated and those kinds of charges would have never been brought unless one side could realize that they could weaponize that,” he added.

During an appearance on Joe Rogan’s podcast last month, Fetterman equally lamented his party’s lack of outreach to male voters in Pennsylvania. “Whether it’s the ‘bros,’ that negative term that perhaps even your publication uses, as a negative — it’s the bros, or, you know, males, blue-collar guys, just people,” he said. “It’s very rare, in my opinion, that surrogates have ‘fanboys.’ Making fun of him or make light of it, you do that at your peril, because it is going to matter,” he said.
