- Rebecca Katz, an advisor to new Pennsylvania Democratic Sen. John Fetterman, admonished reporters for yelling questions at Fetterman.
- “He is still recovering from a stroke and has lingering auditory processing challenges. The way Hill reporters are used to yelling questions at Senators will not work here,” Katz wrote on Twitter.
- Stephen L. Miller of The Spectator fired back, “John Fetterman is not deaf. He does not wear hearing aides…are we to understand he cannot understand words being spoken to him?”
