CW: Brain dead
⬆️ @JonChevreau
@jefftiedrich >> who’s more #brainDead, #MitchMcConnell or the #press covering him?
If the press covering Mitch #McConnell is the same that covered Joe #Biden, I'd call it #SchrodingersPress where they spontaneously change state from being hyper to brain-dead depending on whom they are observing/reporting on.

Has anyone reporting that "Mitch McConnell said..." actually SEEN McConnell to confirm that this isn't just a fabricated statement?
Every single media report I've seen does two unconscionable things:
1. Takes an uncorroborated statement from (someone?) and reports it as fact without attribution, and
2. Uses a stock photo from the past as if it's a CURRENT photo of McConnell.
WTAF?

@newsguyusa Should the headline actually be:
Sen. Mitch McConnell allegedly released from rehabilitation center, according to someone
Did Mitch McConnell personally deliver the statement? Or was it purportedly him but issued through a spokesperson? If so, who?
These are not minor details. They are the whole story. And they're completely missing from the reporting.
Do better.

And this is why I don't vote moderate centrist, and why many people believe they're the same thing.
The moderate centrist isn't going to stop the GOP's shenanigans. What they'll do is act like a publicist and sportscaster, yelling at us:
"SEE! Look at what they're doing! OMG. How awful! Look! Keep looking! Keep watching!"
Notice there is zero effort to stop them. At best, they'll instruct you to protest until most people are tired out, all while your letters and emails go straight into a spambox.
The governor could call for a replacement. True, it would likely end up in the courts, but it would do two things:
1) Prevent the deadline from expiring.
2) Force someone to prove Mitch McConnell really is alive and conscious enough to perform his duties.
But you're not going to get that. You're stuck with a moderate centrist who won't lift a finger to help, and only keep us playing this same stupid rigged game.

Follow up.
At least @MeidasTouch is doing reporting, going directly to #McConnell 's hospital to get the story.
Spoiler - he's now discharged to an unknown rehab.
