  1. 90 days since anybody saw Mitch McConnell alive.

    Is this a global record for the longest a siting politician has been hidden from the Public?

  2. I want this bobblehead of Schrödinger’s senator

    https://www.instagram.com/reel/DcwuDHYktZy/ It's been months since anyone heard a word from Kentucky's Schrödinger's senator, Mitch McConnell. He was carted in an ambulance in mid-June, and his constituents have heard a word from him since. But since I keep referencing Schrödinger, I should at least provide a simple explanation of its significance. But if I write it all in a post, your eyes will glaze over (much like Mitch's ... if he's still in a state of being, since he sure as hell […]

  7. Actually, Mitch McConnell and Iran’s Supreme Leader, Mojtaba Khamenei are tucked away together having ultra-secret talks as to how to end Trump’s war. That’s why we haven’t seen either.

    Or they’re both dead, and neither government wants to admit it for political reasons.

  8. @GhostOnTheHalfShell What *good* does a “calls” do!

    #AndyBeshear made a “call” asking for #Kentucky Senator #MitchMcConnell to *prove* he was alive. He still has not.

  9. @KentNavalesi @kentucky #Kentucky Governor #AndyBeshear does a lot of “calls”, such as this *call* to end tax subsidies for money-burning and resource-sucking #DataCenters. And his *call* for #MitchMcConnell to prove that he’s alive. (He still has not.)

    Does the *do* anything else?

    Just say ‘No!’ to #nepobabies in #USpol.

    Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear says he's "heard absolutely nothing back from #MitchMcConnell"

    By Kaia Hubbard, Updated on: August 16, 2026

    WashingtonDC — "Kentucky Gov. #AndyBeshear said Sunday that he hasn't heard back from Sen. Mitch McConnell following formal requests for updates on his health last month amid a weekslong hospitalization that prompted widespread speculation and concern.

    " 'I've heard absolutely nothing back from Mitch McConnell,' Beshear said on 'Face the Nation with Margaret Brennan.' "

  11. #McConnell, out sick for two months, voted against medical leave 23 times since 1985

    by Judd Legum, Rebecca Crosby, and Noel Sims, Aug 13, 2026

    "Senator #MitchMcConnell (R-KY) was hospitalized on June 14 after suffering a fall that left him unconscious. He remained hospitalized until mid-July, when he was transferred to a rehabilitation center. On August 6, McConnell announced that he was discharged and was continuing his recovery at home.

    "But, two months later, McConnell has not returned to work in the Senate. Over that period of time, he has missed 59 floor votes. Nevertheless, McConnell has continued to receive his Senate salary of $174,000 per year [!!!].

    "McConnell is fortunate to be employed in a job with excellent benefits. There is no federal law, however, that provides guaranteed paid sick leave. In 2025, about 27 million private sector workers had no paid sick leave.

    "One reason: Mitch McConnell."

  13. Mitch McConnell has done more for a country in the last 43 days than he did in the last 43 years. And now may be the time for him to resign (why can’t these sick, old politicians just bow out and leave?)

    Maybe Gov. Andy Beshear will be able to appoint a Democrat replacement 🙏

    Kentucky Gov. #AndyBeshear has a message for Sen. #MitchMcConnell: Either the state’s senior senator should explain his long absence from the Senate and give details about his health, or resign.

  15. @meidastouch Unless #Kentucky Governor #AndyBeshear speaks to #MitchMcConnell “for 20 minutes” he should go ahead and name a replacement for the remainder of his #Senate term.

  16. @thetnholler.bsky.social Is #ScottJennings the Governor of #Kentucky ?

    Until #AndyBeshear talks to #MitchMcConnell he should assume he’s dead, and start the process of naming his replacement for the remainder of his #Senate term.

    Just do it!

  17. RE: zirk.us/@CindyWeinstein/116874

    Considering what #MitchMcConnell did to prevent #BarackObama from putting #MerrickGarland on the #SCOTUS after Antonio Scalia died, it wouldn’t surprise me if the cretin from #Kentucky told his staff to keep his death secret until the #midterms decided his Senate replacement!

    Governor #AndyBeshear should name his replacement effective immediately, unless McConnell proves that he is alive.

  18. > Reforms that would break the supermajority right-wing Court’s grip on the country — its operating as a legislative veto for Democratic administrations and a hall pass for Republican ones — would go far beyond docket management and ethics reforms, though. Term limits, court packing, jurisdiction stripping — the ideas lighting up the intellectual left and spreading to Democratic officials would overhaul the Court as we know it.

  19. The #legislation would also require #SCOTUS nominees to be automatically scheduled for a vote in the #Senate if their nominations have lingered in committee for >180 days.
    
The measure would prevent senators from blocking a president’s nominees by refusing to hold a vote on them, as then-Senate Majority Leader #MitchMcConnell (R-KY) did after President Barack #Obama’s nomination of #MerrickGarland in 2016.
