Fetterman Doesn't Want To Show Up For Work, Says His Mental Health Has Been 'Weaponized'.

Fetterman has previously been vocal about his struggles with depression after he survived a stroke on the 2022 campaign trail that he said nearly killed him.

Fetterman has missed 18.1% of floor votes since taking office.

The new report details Fetterman’s extreme reluctance with performing his senatorial work duties, including showing up for procedural votes that he calls “performative.”

Fetterman told The Times he would rather spend time with his family than show up for work.

“The votes I missed were overwhelmingly procedural; they’re even called ‘bed check’ votes,” he told the publication. “I had to make a decision: getting here and sticking my thumb in the door for three seconds for a procedural vote or spend Monday night as a dad-daughter date.”

Tulsi Gabbard, the director of national intelligence, is moving the assembly of the president’s daily intelligence brief from the C.I.A. headquarters to her own complex, according to officials briefed on the move.

The brief, a summary of intelligence and analysis about global hot spots and national security threats, is overseen and presented to the president by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence.But C.I.A. officers write much of the analysis in the document and produce it,pulling together articles and graphics on the agency’s classified computer systems.

Ms. Gabbard’s decision comes as President Trump has openly mused to aides over time about whether the office she leads — which was created after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks to improve interagency coordination —should continue to exist, according to two people with knowledge of his remarks. Ms. Gabbard has discussed Mr. Trump’s concerns with him directly and has considered how to overhaul the office, according to one official.
