It seems that every time we turn around now, we are left with far more questions than answers regarding the ongoing medical situation surrounding former Kentucky Senator Mitch McConnell.
On the 14th of June, a full three weeks ago now, news broke that the 84-year-old senator had been hospitalized. Independent Capitol Hill journalist Desiree Townsend was the first to break the news, with McConnell’s team quickly following with an extremely vague statement that confirmed the senator had been hospitalized but omitted any details about his status, condition, or even a reason for the hospitalization.
By the following week, additional details came to light when explosive emergency dispatch audio went public, revealing that dispatchers were called to McConnell’s residence for a cardiac arrest, where they performed CPR on an unconscious individual.
Since then, while speculation has swirled, we have heard nothing but crickets regarding any formal confirmation of Senator Mitch McConnell’s health.
As such, people are rightfully beginning to wonder if the Kentucky lawmaker is even alive.
