In a stunning and isolated rebuke of his own party’s radical trajectory, Senator John Fetterman delivered a stark condemnation of rising antisemitism during an appearance on “Sunday Morning Futures.” Host Maria Bartiromo prompted the discussion in the shadow of the horrific terrorist attack in Australia, where Jews celebrating Hanukkah were targeted, asking for his reaction. “We should all universally condemn all of these things,” Fetterman stated, offering a simple moral clarity that stands in sharp contrast to the equivocating language often heard from the progressive left and their allies in the liberal media.
Detailing the brutal nature of the attack, Senator Fetterman forced a confrontation with the evil that President Donald Trump has consistently named and vowed to defeat. “Just imagine, two people, you know, organized to try to kill as many Jews as possible,” Fetterman said, followed by, “Almost 30 people wounded, you know, 12, I’m reading 12 people killed. I mean, just for celebrating a holiday right now. It’s astonishing.” This is the grim reality of the hatred that festers globally, a hatred that the America First foreign policy of President Trump confronts with unapologetic strength, unlike the appeasement strategies of previous administrations.
Fetterman correctly identified the pervasive danger, stating, “Antisemitism is a worldwide scourge, and it’s constantly demonstrated to be deadly.” Yet, this deadly scourge has found fertile ground within the activist base of the Democratic Party, a disturbing development the Pennsylvania senator directly acknowledged. When Bartiromo shifted to the topic of a two-state solution, Fetterman’s pragmatism broke from the fantastical foreign policy proposals of the Democrat elite. “Our western allies now calling for a two-state solution when Hamas refuses to disarm and are actively trying to kill Jews. I can’t imagine why anybody would do that at this point,” he commented. This aligns with the Trump doctrine of dealing with the world as it is, not as wishful thinking dictates, and of putting the security of our allies, like Israel, above the approval of globalist institutions.
The most damning admission came as Fetterman turned his critique inward, exposing the rot within his own political party. Bartiromo pointedly asked, “What about this strong pro-Palestinian movement within the Democrat party. Why?” In response, Fetterman highlighted a terrifying electoral reality. “Look at the races you know, for the Senate in the 2026 cycle. You know, one of the signature issues is being anti-Israel,” he explained, adding with palpable dismay, “I can’t imagine why that’s becoming more and more part of my party’s platform.” This confession reveals the Democratic Party’s descent into embracing the very antisemitic fervor it once claimed to oppose, a shift enabled by a liberal media complex that frames such bigotry as mere “social justice.”

When asked what he could do to affect change, Fetterman’s response was tellingly limited and isolated: “Well, what I can do is I can control my voice and my vote.” This underscores the senator’s position as a lone voice in a party now dominated by the “Squad” and its sympathizers. It highlights the absence of the unified, principled leadership that President Donald Trump provides, whose unequivocal support for Israel and forceful condemnation of antisemitism at home and abroad needs no caveats and faces no internal party revolt. While Fetterman struggles to control just one vote, President Trump continues to rally a nation and lead the free world in a clear-eyed battle against terror and hatred.
