McConnell Facing Early Retirement After Severe Concussion From Fall
Jon Dougherty March 22, 2023


Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell may be on the verge of early retirement following a fall this month that left him with a severe concussion and potential serious brain damage, according to a Tuesday report.

“The Republican bigshot, 81, banged his brain in a terrible March 9 tumble at Washington D.C.’s Waldorf Astoria hotel — nearly four years after another serious fall forced him to have shoulder surgery,” RadarOnline reported.

After the recent fall, McConnell was admitted to the hospital where he spent six days receiving treatment. Following his discharge, he was transferred to an inpatient rehabilitation facility to receive care for a brain injury. One medical expert told the outlet that can cause “loss of consciousness, convulsions, seizures, loss of coordination, slurred speech, agitation, and confusion.”

Sources reportedly told the outlet that McConnell has experienced other medical emergencies in the past, to go along with his childhood encounter with polio. That includes a triple bypass operation in 2003.

I give no quarter to those in leadership positions. While I personally may wish McConnell no ill will, it looks like he's no longer able to fulfill his duties as Minority Leader, and it's time to step down.

You were elected to do a job, step up or step off.
The Republic is lost.

At what point does this apply to Biden? Are we there yet?

"Early" retirement?  Much-too-late retirement, if you ask me.
Let it burn.

We are, but I'm hoping they the Rat bast***s will do it via the 25th, and that the House majority will keep up the investigative pressure.

You're not wrong ... but I think McConnell probably should step aside immediately after John Fetterman does.

And Fetterman

 And Feinstein. How long was she there while other senators knew that she was cognitively declining?
I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.

If 81 is "early retirement", then what is "late retirement"? 120?
I retired at 50. According to the geriatric old folks home which is Washington D.C., I retired as young pup halfway through my career.

Quentin Burdick was another. (Senator, D-ND) who was unable to carry on a conversation on the plane with a lady I know, but was  propped up for reelection by his staffers who ran file tapes and used older images in his ads, and eventually died in office after being reelected.
That was my first real insight into the 'deep state' of staff and bureaucrats really running that show up there.
We have all Republicans in the Congress, now.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
