It has been nearly six weeks since McConnell cast a vote in the Senate, just days before he was rushed to the hospital on June 14 by emergency responders.
The Daily Beast made multiple requests for information with the offices of all seven other members of the Kentucky delegation about whether the members of Congress had been in contact with McConnell or even bothered to reach out to the former Senate Majority Leader. Our questions were largely met with silence.
Only Rep. Andy Barr’s office responded and simply pointed to the congressman and GOP Senate nominee’s comments in Lexington one month ago, where he told reporters after an event in Lexington that he had exchanged text messages with McConnell. That was on June 21.
The offices of Paul along with Reps. James Comer, Brett Guthrie, Morgan McGarvey, Thomas Massie and Hal Rogers did not say whether they’d been in contact with the senator or his staff.
Beshear’s office confirmed with the Daily Beast on Tuesday that the governor has still not received “any communication whatsoever” from McConnell.
The Democratic governor and rising star in the party is now facing backlash for not going further by appointing a replacement or calling a special election amid McConnell’s radio silence.
Ahhh, right. I keep forgetting Lemmy is where leftists go to prove they’re just as stupid as maga.
Wanting justice is…stupid?
This is your argument? Seriously? Heaven forbid I smarten up enough to desire criminals be left to continue their crimes against the American people. Bet you thought this was a brilliant zinger, huh?
It just seemed like a clear observation TBH. The left makes just as stupid arguments as the maga crowd all the time. They just justify them because “we’re right and they’re not”.
I’m sure they do. Mine, however, was not one of those, and your response to it was asinine.
Oh yeah - your “we want to prosecute people for things we perceive as wrong but which may or may not be illegal for reasons” was a brilliant work of art.
Fabricating evidence of a public servant still being alive in order to receive their constituents is, in fact, fraud, and illegal. Perception has nothing to do with it.
These gymnastics you’re performing to try to justify them doing this is bizarre.
