Mitch McConnell is still in the hospital after medical episode, his office says
Politico ^ | July 6 | Politico

Sen. Mitch McConnell remains hospitalized, his office said in a statement Thursday — without offering details about a recent medical episode that has renewed concern about the health of the former Republican majority leader.

McConnell “continues his recovery in the hospital” and “continues to improve,” his office said.

“Senator McConnell appreciates the outpouring of support he’s receiving while he continues his recovery in the hospital,” the statement said. “The Senator continues to improve, and is working closely with his staff on Kentucky and Senate matters while the Senate is out of session.”

The statement did not explain why he was hospitalized last month.

The update comes after multiple outlets reported details of a first responder dispatch call indicating emergency medical personnel responded to McConnell’s home last month to treat an unconscious person who had experienced “cardiac arrest.”

McConnell is very poorly according to many reports. No one knows how badly though...

Gobbler Turkey Neck McConnell can’t retire yet as he is too busy funneling payoff money to anti-American Thune. /s

Never mind, RINO/GOPe Thune will continue to filibuster the SAVE Act until the dems take over this fall.

I believe that his CCP Handler/wife is currently in China getting instructions from her Handler.

Revision --- "The United States Senate remains hospitalized...."

The Republicans could be SAVEd, but a few Democrat-adjacent RINOs are standing on the IV drip line.....

Not a problem, his unelected staff hired by China can still vote for him.

I doubt he has regained consciousness. Did I read that his Chinese national wife fled to China after he was taken away by ambulance?

Reminds me of when Yassir Arafat was in hospital dying of AIDS pneumonia and his inner circle was desperately trying to wrangle access to billions he had skimmed from PLO aid money over the years.
