Punchbowl News reports that the former Senate majority leader, who is retiring after his current term ends in January, lost consciousness at his Washington, D.C., home at 8:36 a.m. on June 14, before a dispatcher sent over an Advanced Life Support ambulance. Journalist Desiree Townsend posted a recording of the call from the emergency dispatcher Tuesday afternoon to X.
You know, dying in office used to be notable and fairly uncommon. Mostly assassinations, plane accidents, etc.
But now our government is more of a hospice than anything else.
Please be dead please please please
If he weren’t, I feel like they would have said so.
Looks to me like he’s probably brain dead and on life support. We can only hope 🙏
Mitch, god is telling you to retire. Listen to her.

Margaret Thatcher maybe?
Ding dong the witch is dead
LOL!
Plenty of women gods who aren’t all powerful and have to context with the general fuckery of their male counterparts. Or in the case of Aphrodite making problems for herself and her children, for further context read the lliad and the Aeneid.
They are going to Bernie him until they can be sure they’d get another republican just as malicious as he was.
He is one of the most responsible people for where American politics are today.
Absolutely no conscience and no morals, he is as close to pure evil a politician can get. He was among the main people that created the circumstances that allowed Trump to become president of USA.Don’t party, he’s still alive, and an absolute disgrace to turtles.
Hopefully he’s in pain
I wouldn’t wish pain on anybody. It’s a good thing he’s a nobody.
Correct, I still have to find his final phylactery and destroy it, this happened right after I got to the penultimate
Aww… welp keeping the champagne on standby.
We can celebrate the fact he’s abstaining from voting.
How could they tell?
When asked if he enjoys having no power over the machine he helped create, he shat himself as opposed to his usual routine of pissing himself. The foul odor was a sign of distress.
If I found him I’d have left him
Not all heros wear capes
Some, very few, have @lemmy.ml
And .world has none, only those who get in the way of real progressive politics. Hehe
Boo, that’s not even a joke, just particularly lame divisiveness.
You can dish it out but you can’t take it. I made the same joke you did, but I’m divisive? Because I’m anti imperialist? I don’t get it. Thanks for making this not fun
You’re replying to the wrong person, I didn’t comment in this thread previously
Ok? Why are you talking at me then?
Why couldn’t this have happened like, 20 years ago
We’ve reached peak Republican when we have to demand proof of life from the hospital for a GOP senator from a state with a Dem governor.
I predict Mitch showing up to the next senate vote wearing this
Republicans would still vote for that over a Democrat
ah a wooden overcoat, excellent choice
He died as he lived. Holding up Senate business for his own personal bullshit reasons.
At what point is it elder abuse to let him keep trying to work as a senator?
Ask Dianne Feinstein. Staffers were dragging her hand to the vote-clicker by the end, because she could barely move herself.
Kinda hard to ask her at this point.
Break out the ouija board and find her restless ghost. I refuse to believe that bitch ain’t haunting something.
At his funeral, throw a fire extinguisher in his grave. Where he is going, he will need it.
Don’t waste a perfectly good fire extinguisher on that slug. Give him an empty one with a hole in the side, because that’s about as much as he gave the citizens on the country.
I don’t believe in a hell, but I think a fitting eternity for Mitch is forever being ass fucked with a pineapple (no lube, pointy end first) while licking clean Lindsey Graham’s “ladybugs”
How can you not believe in Hell? We’re in it now.
You just had to say it. My mind has been trying to repress that fact and you just had to say it.
Unfair that Lindsey is getting sent to heaven though…
Hopefully he’ll be right next to kissinger
As well as Donald J Rapeinger
He’s a horrible person who deserves no peace and no dignity.
He could have had both by retiring a lomg time ago. Oh well.
If that were the case, he probably would not be a horrible person who deserves no peace and no dignity.
