If the news of his death breaks on Aug 4th you know it was a scam.

He's dead & they are 100% committing fraud by continuing to receive a pay check a month after the fact.

Beshear should appoint a replacement & let the GOP deal with the fallout.

Mitch the bitch would have loved all this stonewalling if he were still alive.

He’s 💀💯.

Surely its illegal to lie about an elected official’s alive/unalive status?

Oh wait, it’s the fascist/GOP party.

It's because Mitch McConnell is dead, and the Republican MO in all things is treachery.

Not one journalist in the entire country is capable of finding the truth about what's going on. Pathetic.

Serious question: what is stopping Beshear from calling for a special election right now? Like seriously.

“The people of the great state of Kentucky have been without proper representation in the senate for over a month. Since Mitch McConnell has abandoned his post as Senator I am calling a special election for his replacement immediately.”

Make them PROVE he is still alive.

The sad part about all this is that Americans are still going to see the Republican party as a viable political entity instead of the fascist traitors they are.

MITCH MCCONNELL IS DEAD

BECAUSE HES FUCKING DEAD AND US REPUBLICANS ARE CRIMINALS.

MOST OF ALL THE PEDO FELON IN CHIEF

And the Dem just sits patiently waiting. Fucking appoint a replacement.

Normally I'd say this is the realm of conspiracy theories, but updating the people that a US senator is supposed to be actively leading on his basic ability to represent them is such a low bar to achieve that suddenly it all smells fishy.

Yeah, he's definitely dead.

If a senator is absent, their vote should not count. Period. It is not deferred, and nobody can vote on their behalf. It is straight up not counted.

This is what Republicans want for midterm and presidential voting, so why does it not apply to senetors?

This would incentivise them to elect healthy people and quickly replace people who can not do their job.

Can we please have age limits. Senators shouldn’t be dying of old age in office. You can’t run after the age of 70

He’s not dead. I think he’s probably braindead and in a vegetative state. They’re keeping his comatose body alive until next month to get past the special election deadline. That’s why his wife flew off to China, so she’s not in the country to issue a “pull the plug” order.

The turtle fuck is dead! And the Pedo Party is hiding this so they don't potentially lose the seat. They want to hold out until the 3rd. Why the fuck are we letting them???

It's 2026 and you can't even be sure which US government members are alive and which are dead

We put Mitch in a box and as long as we don't open the box we are not sure how he's doing. Additionally we added a feature where you can shake this box for a vote.

Gee what will happen to paychecks/health care of McConnell's staff if McConnell dies ?

He’s DEAD Jim.

If the tables were turned the Republicans would do something about this. Someone in the opposition should do something. They would never let this stand. We should not either.

Yea he's definitely dead.
