Punchbowl News reports that the former Senate majority leader, who is retiring after his current term ends in January, lost consciousness at his Washington, D.C., home at 8:36 a.m. on June 14, before a dispatcher sent over an Advanced Life Support ambulance. Journalist Desiree Townsend posted a recording of the call from the emergency dispatcher Tuesday afternoon to X.
Don’t party, he’s still alive, and an absolute disgrace to turtles.
He is one of the most responsible people for where American politics are today.
Absolutely no conscience and no morals, he is as close to pure evil a politician can get. He was among the main people that created the circumstances that allowed Trump to become president of USA.
He died as he lived. Holding up Senate business for his own personal bullshit reasons.
At what point is it elder abuse to let him keep trying to work as a senator?
We need term limits for Congress.
He's a horrible person who deserves no peace and no dignity.
Set the dancing crabs on high alert.
If I found him I'd have left him
How could they tell?
At his funeral, throw a fire extinguisher in his grave. Where he is going, he will need it.
Thoughts and prayers
If McConnell dies, then the governor will choose his replacement, and the governor is a Democrat. Unless he wants to completely END his political career, he will choose a Democrat.
The Senate Republicans won't want that, so it's a pretty good bet that when McConnell dies, they will keep it a secret for as long as possible.
Why couldn't this have happened like, 20 years ago
June 14th? And we only hear of this 2 weeks later?!?
What about the Kennedy Center?
What about those Trump-Epstein Files?
Don't forget what a piece of shit this guy has been his whole adult life.
You know, dying in office used to be notable and fairly uncommon. Mostly assassinations, plane accidents, etc.
But now our government is more of a hospice than anything else.
Which will die first: the Democracy he helped kill, or his own walking corpse?
He dead and the governor of Kentucky, who appoints his replacement, is a Democrat.
I hope when he regains consciousness, it's in one of those Hellraiser scenarios where he's stuck in an eternal loop of... torment. I guess that seems like what just hell would be as well?
Either way. As long as he suffers, forever, in the knowledge it's all his own fault because he's such a piece of shit.
Mitch, god is telling you to retire. Listen to her.
Please be dead please please please
They are going to Bernie him until they can be sure they'd get another republican just as malicious as he was.
I hope whatever his affliction was, was super painful and it happens again
Who would rush in such a situation?
They (gop) will "weekend at Bernie's" him until Jan.
His operator just walked away. Even puppeteers have bathroom emergencies.
Welp, Mitch glitched (again).
