Paramedics conducted CPR on a person experiencing a “cardiac arrest” at a known address for Sen. Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., on the day his office disclosed he had been hospitalized, according to police scanner audio obtained by NBC News.

According to the audio, the first medic on the scene began performing CPR, according to the dispatchers, and was then joined by an additional EMS team at the same address.

McConnell’s office, which has not disclosed why he was hospitalized, referred NBC News to a June 22 statement when it was asked about the audio Wednesday.

They will keep him alive until the mid terms. We need a proof of life.

He has $120 million of ill-gotten loot and he may not live to spend it, but will be homed instead.

One of the big issues, when having a heart attack like this, is a lack of oxygen to the brain. You can be left as a vegetable if you were left all night on the floor.

That may be why we arent getting updates on his condition.

Good question.

Talking to the CCP, about returning their wealth?

Elaine Chao was born on March 26, 1953, in Taipei, Taiwan, to Chinese parents who had fled mainland China after the Communist Revolution. Her father, Dr. James S.C. Chao, was a merchant mariner and later the founder of the Foremost Group, a major shipping firm with global reach. In 1961, when Elaine was eight years old, the family immigrated to the United States and settled in Queens, New York.

Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s clerks wrote everything for a year. She was AWOL.

The news media wrote articles about how her yoga instructor couldn’t keep up with her.

that is what I can’t understand, where is his wife and family.

He’s got everything to live out his life however long that might be in comfort, yet his wife and family allow him to cling to power, it makes no sense to me.

We have the 25th amendment to remove a POTUS, which should have been done to Biden, we should have something similar to remove the likes of Mitch McConnell and Diane Feinstein.

Kentucky is one of the states that does not allow the governor to appoint someone to an open Senate seat. They have to hold either a special election or add the contest to a regularly scheduled election, like the one that’s only 4 months away now.

Either way, there simply isn’t the time or the votes to get the SAVE Act passed this year.
