Sen. John Fetterman, who has far-and-away been the most vocally pro-Israel Democrat in the Senate since October 7, says he agrees with 99 percent of what Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer said in a speech earlier today calling for elections in Israel to replace Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
“I agree with 99% of what was in there… I respect everything he said this morning and it’s not necessary for me to agree with 100% of what he says,” Fetterman says, according to Jewish Insider.
