lucky jili PHILADELPHIA — Victoria Perrone wasn’t a spokesperson for Sen. John Fetterman’s 2022 Senate campaign. As his treasurer, she worked with numbers and spreadsheets. But when the campaign asked her to speak about her sister who relied in part on Medicaid at her Delaware County elementary school, she agreed. “My sister passed away from Ovarian Cancer in June and Dr. Oz became the Republican nominee,” she said on stage at Nether Providence Elementary School, sporting a ‘Made in Delco’ hoodie. “When I found out Dr. Oz lied to millions of TV viewers that one of his ‘miracle cures’ would decrease ovarian cancer by 75%, I got really mad, like Delco Mad.” So when Fetterman said this week that he would vote for Oz if the celebrity doctor agrees to protect Medicaid and Medicare, Perrone got “Delco mad” again. “Our politics are obviously different, and we do have a history, but I don’t have any bitterness,” Fetterman told CNN reporter Manu Raju this week of Oz. “I don’t hold anything against him. As long as he’s willing to protect and preserve Medicaid and Medicare, I’m voting for the dude.” But on the campaign trail in 2022, Fetterman often attacked the celebrity doctor known for spreading misinformation as a liar and a fraud, and frequently said Oz would be a threat to Medicare and Social Security funding. So the senator’s remarks this week garnered a reaction from several former campaign staffers, and some of his former senate staffers also expressed outrage at Oz’s nomination. Annie Wu Henry, who was on Fetterman’s campaign’s digital team and was coined his TikTok whisperer , posted screenshots of posts from Fetterman’s X account that argued Oz would threaten Medicare and Social Security. Harrison Morgan, who also worked on Fetterman’s campaign, reposted Henry’s compilation as well as other posts against Oz. Morgan also shared a 2022 post from Fetterman’s account that called Oz a fraud. Sophie Ota, the digital director for Fetterman’s 2022 campaign , also pointed out the irony of Fetterman’s statement about appointing Oz. “Oh my god hahahahahahahahahahahahah,” she posted alongside Fetterman’s statement. Former Fetterman communications staffers Emma Mustion , Joe Calvello , and Nick Gavio , who all left within the same time period in the spring, all shared posts on X against Oz’s appointment. During his 2022 run, Oz said he supported expanding Medicare Advantage plans, which use private insurers, and he argued in a 2020 op-ed that every American who isn’t on Medicaid should be on one of the private plans. A 2014 study found that less than half of claims made on Oz’s show were accurate, The 19th reported. Oz also said in 2014 that Americans without insurance do not have a right to health and should instead receive 15-minute screenings in a “festival-like setting,” the report said. A ‘huge personal betrayal’ For Perrone, Fetterman’s statement was a “huge personal betrayal.” She said her sister cast a vote for Fetterman on the last ballot she lived to cast. “Knowing all of these things that we researched about Mehmet Oz and the lies that he told on his show, and then seeing and knowing where he stands on Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security, it made zero sense to me that John would even say that he would consider voting for him, because, in my opinion, it is pretty clear cut that he is not qualified,” Perrone said in an interview. She said she doesn’t know why Fetterman, who is “blatantly and obnoxiously authentic,” would be open to believing Oz, who “made a career out of lying to people.” If Fetterman was trying to extend an olive branch to work with Republicans, “this was a very failed attempt of doing that,” she said. “I don’t know if he’s caving to the Republican Party; I don’t know if he’s just being gullible,” she said. Fetterman – who also said this week of Oz that he would “get a beer with the dude,” as NOTUS reported – dismissed the reaction to his recent remarks on Friday. “Freakouts are rarely illuminating,” he posted on X . “I never committed to a yes, just an open dialogue lol.” He also pointed to the Republican majority in the Senate to support his view. But while Democrats don’t have the power to block Trump’s nominees, they can play a role in directing the conversation about them. Fetterman’s office did not respond to a request for comment. Fetterman has already alienated some of his supporters on the left who expressed frustration and disillusionment over his hard-line support for Israel in its war against Hamas. He’s also extended his snark – which he previously was known for extending to Republicans like Oz — to progressives who previously supported him. “There’s been a pattern of people feeling duped by him, and where he actually stands on issues,” Perrone said. Meanwhile, Fetterman has made a better impression with Republicans over his staunch support for Israel. He has welcomed pro-Israel Trump appointments with open arms, including Sen. Marco Rubio and U.S. Rep. Elise Stefanick . He was, however, dismissive of former Florida U.S. Rep. Matt Gaetz’s now-withdrawn appointment as attorney general, sarcastically saying he didn’t see it coming that Gaetz wouldn’t be confirmed. ©2024 The Philadelphia Inquirer, LLC.

The big budget set of Guy Ritchie's new TV show has been targeted by thieves, according to reports. The British director , 56, is busy filming The Associate, starring Helen Mirren and Pierce Brosnan , and had shut roads while getting to work. However, while production crew and security were on site, it's alleged daring thieves managed to escape with costly camera equipment. It's claimed two men in a Toyota Prius managed to distract people by asking for directions before making their move and speeding off with the equipment. "Their questions distracted people and at that moment, the other bloke jumped out and grabbed a bag of camera equipment that was on the side of the road," a source said. Speaking to the Sun , they continued: "He jumped back in the car and they sped off. The security guards started going bananas because they’d basically been robbed in broad daylight. It was pretty embarrassing and a costly mistake. The kit on those films isn’t cheap." The series, which also features Tom Hardy, will see "family fortunes and reputations at risk, odd alliances unfold, and betrayal around every corner; and while the family might be London’s most elite fixers today, the nature of their business means there is no guarantee what’s in store tomorrow". The new series' synopsis says it will follow the story of "two generations of gangsters, the businesses they run, the complex relationships they weave, and the man they call upon to fix their problems". The latest offering comes after Guy's long list of hit shows and movies. His impressive CV includes Lock Stock, Snatch and The Gentlemen. Earlier this year, Guy admitted he had lost a stone in weight by eating the same meal five times a week. He admitted his impressive results had made him "quite smug". He revealed he lost a stone by eating steak five nights a week. Guy only has one meal a day in a bid to stave off weight gain and just adds snacks and coffee to his diet. He told Ruthie's Table 4 podcast: “Usually what I eat is a rib eye five or six days a week and I’ll play with other things, but in the end it’s easy for me to cook. “I quite like coffee so I’ll go on iced Americanos until about one and then I’ll have a nibble of something. They do these healthy bars, like dates, cashew nuts, they’ve got just enough naughtiness in them to keep you entertained but not enough to get you in trouble.” Guy also revealed that learning difficulties through dyslexia pushed him on to succeed, adding: "The best roses come from the worst manure. So I think a certain amount of adversity is rather essential."

Adele became emotional as she told her fans she will miss them “terribly” during her final Las Vegas residency show. The British singer-songwriter, 36, launched Weekends With Adele at Caesars Palace in November 2022 and performed her 100th show on Saturday. Her run of sell-out shows at the venue, which seats around 4,000 people, has been a success but has also taken its toll. In July, she announced she would be taking a “big break” from music after her current run of shows. Videos posted online from her concert on Saturday show the singer getting tearful as she bid farewell to Vegas. “It’s been wonderful and I will miss it terribly and I will miss you terribly”, she said. “I don’t know when I next want to perform again.” She also said she got “closure” when Canadian singer Celine Dion came to watch her perform, admitting that she cried for a “whole week” afterwards. “It was just such a full circle moment for me because that’s the only reason I ever even wanted to be in here”, she added. Adele shared an emotional embrace with Dion after she spotted the singer in the audience during her Las Vegas show last month. In footage shared online, the British star can be seen breaking down in tears as they hug in The Colosseum at Caesars Palace, which was built for Dion’s residency. The Rolling In The Deep singer has been vocal about her love for Dion over the years, hailing her as “Queen Celine” after attending one of her performances in an Instagram post in 2018. Dion reciprocated the love at the time, sharing a photo to social media of her posing alongside Adele, who was wearing the singer’s merchandise. She wrote: “Wasn’t able to do all my shows, but was thrilled that @Adele came to one of them.... I love her so much!! – Celine xx”. After their encounter at the venue, Adele said in an Instagram post: “Words will never sum up what you mean to me, or what you coming to my show means, let alone how it felt seeing you back in your palace with your beautiful family.”Oregon, Penn State square off for Big Ten title with CFP in their future
