Fetterman Rips His Own Party Over L.A. Protests

June 10, 2025 · 6:30 am ET · Leave a Comment

Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) criticized his party’s response to protests in Los Angeles against raids by ICE agents.

Said Fetterman: “I unapologetically stand for free speech, peaceful demonstrations, and immigration—but this is not that. This is anarchy and true chaos.”

He added: “My party loses the moral high ground when we refuse to condemn setting cars on fire, destroying buildings, and assaulting law enforcement.”
