McConnell's Prolonged Hospital Stay Sparks Health Scrutiny
TL;DR
Sen. Mitch McConnell, 84, remains hospitalized for more than three weeks with few details about his condition, though his office says he’s improving and staying engaged with staff on Kentucky and Senate matters. GOP leaders say they’ve spoken with him recently, and a circulating brain-dead rumor has been debunked, while emergency-services audio references CPR at his Washington address on the day of his hospitalization but does not name him. The Senate is out of session and no return date has been announced.
