Paramedics responded to a cardiac arrest at Mitch McConnell's home

scienceJul 2, 202621611,276

Paramedics responded to a report of a “cardiac arrest” for an “unconscious” person at a known address for Sen. Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., on June 14, the day his office disclosed he had been admitted to the hospital, according to police scanner audio obtained by NBC News. McConnell’s office has not disclosed why he was hospitalized and referred questions to a June 22 statement from spokesman David Popp that said, “Senator McConnell is still working closely with staff on Senate business and Kentucky matters as he continues his recovery. However, he will not be voting this week.” NBC noted Punchbowl News previously reported the paramedic response. McConnell has not been seen since the hospitalization; his office has not said whether he remains hospitalized. McConnell, 84, has had several recent health issues, including a multi-day hospitalization this year for flu-like symptoms, a concussion after a 2023 fall, and a 2019 shoulder fracture from a fall.

When Mitch McConnell dies (if he's not already gone) they're gonna try to shame us into being nice about him. We don't need to play along.

Some people think it's wrong to speak ill of the dead, so while he's still alive, let's all agree that Mitch McConnell is shit wrapped in skin.

Is Mitch McConnell dead? Coz he was, it seems, when the paramedics arrived at his house 2 weeks ago. I don’t know about y’all, but I am getting pretty sick & tired of the senators & representatives thinking they don’t owe an explanation when they disappear for weeks or months at a time. #SheShed

Not entirely sure why federal officials and politicians are allowed to keep their medical status a secret?

NBC’s source = police scanner audio. Makes you wonder why McConnell’s team thought they could keep this quiet. Also, they won’t say whether he’s still in the hospital.

We need proof of consciousness & proof of life.

The entire Earth now waits for a Flash point when everything overturns. The zionists know this. They keep Mitch McConnell's heart beating, long after brain death, under the excuse to preserve his filibusters. The real reason is to avoid shocking the system and creating a Flash point

He’s in a coma, at least, right?

Shouldn’t our elected representatives have to disclose whether they’re alive, dead, hospitalized, &/or going to be healthy enough to return to work within a few days’ absence? bsky.app/profile/sahi...

Just imagine (for a second) that McConnell was Catholic. The way the gerontocracy doesn't think we're entitled to know anything, he could pass right now and they would try to hide it till the 1 year memorial Mass.

If McConnell were to die before Jan 2029 Beshear should 100% say that the KY law mandating a same party appointment is unconditional and appoint a dem to force SCOTUS to acquiesce or uphold the law when it would advantage Republicans.

Mitch McConnell’s death would not fix anything but it would brighten my day a bit, so…

JUST IN: Senator Mitch McConnell is still in the hospital and is “working closely with his staff on Kentucky and Senate matters,” a spokesperson told CBS News. McConnell was hospitalized on June 14 after he was found unconscious at his home in Washington, D.C.
