Weekend at Bernie’s was supposed to be a parody. 🤨
This is pathetic.
They’re going to wheel his corpse onto the Senate floor and have someone push the button for his vote.
Already did once, apparently.
From what I can tell, this video was taken as they arrived to transport him, then later another one was taken when he was actually brought out of the house and put into the limo. Then more video was taken of him being wheeled around in the safe space Senate Chamber, but out in the hallway, only photos were allowed to be taken, no video.
So my guess is, he’s non-verbal and they’re going to wheel him around and help him push the right button to vote when they need his vote on something. So far I haven’t seen – more importantly heard any footage of him actually speaking. In the video I linked with him being wheeled out, he doesn’t speak but does a “thumbs up” once, and in the car we see he has a blank expression and mindless grin.
Yeah his constant unchanging expression gives me the heebs.
And that was even before the stroke!
Our next president.
So they really did the weekend at bernies routine?
Also, I’d love to see what drugs were in his system during his public performance
It seems like they have some sort of concoction that will reanimate someone who is near death for a short bit of time.
They must have gotten Miracle Max to help.
Unfortunately they screwed up and ended up with Bill Kristol instead.

Senate staff not to take video of his remarks in the second-floor hallway, even though video is often permitted in that area. Still images were allowed.
And the press, being completely controlled by the government offered absolutely NO pushback to this. Freedom of the press? An well informed public? “Most transparent government”? Buncha bullshit. You will only hear what the party wants you to hear.
Well it’s really for our own safety. You see if you broadcast a video of the demon Pazuzu who is wearing Mitch as a flesh suit. The dark magics binding Pazuzu break and he will drag any witnesses into hell.
They’re finally going to do something?
Actually shocked over here.
I hear you. This is absolutely unexpected.
not really, the story is unclear, but it may be the cops are there to keep reporters away.
“Protect the corpse!”
Please tell me that this is in response to a wellness check that someone called in when he didn’t show up.
I’m seeing conflicting reports. Newsweek says he did not show, and his staffers released a statement. CBS says he was seen in public and at the senate. Still have set to see any video evidence of this.
CBS is no longer a trusted source.
CBS says
With the conservative purchase of CBS, going forward you should assume “CBS says” carries the same amount of truth as “Alex Jones says”.
CBS lies.
CBS, is Faux Nooz for people with INDOOR plumbing.
Fancy
It was in their name. Can’t Believe Shit
“Borrowing” this
Use it in good health.
There’s clips of him being wheeled out of his house too. Doesn’t look like he spoke with any reporters. I’m guessing a stroke affected his speech. He certainly looks significantly older than three months ago.
looks significantly older
There’s an episode of dr. Who where they age the doctor physically to match his age and glitchin’ Mitch still looks older than the 900 year old CGI goblin of 2010 BBC evening sci-fi. How could he possibly look any older?
Good match for Davros, the creator of the Daleks. Good match with the lore too.
Truth. Or a slitheen: he does give the impression of one who can readily unzip the meat suit.
He doesn’t look capable of readily doing anything, more like a pupal Slitheen realising the carapace they are stuck in is too tough and unmoving to escape from.
Truly, I am shocked he is alive and looks as well as he does.
I’m still not ruling out a Weekend at Bernie’s situation. They had plenty of time to figure out how to puppet his corpse.
It’s much easier with the wheelchair, you have a stable base and just use animatronics for the head and arms. Not a bad effort but wouldn’t hold up as a Disney World exhibit.
All it has to do is sit in a wheelchair.
Must be nice have 3 months paid vacation from work.
Posthumously!
I still think he’s dead.
I’m guessing parts of him are. Dollars to donuts he’s a vegetable.
Because necromancy is illegal? Because it’s illegal right?
Get that turtle!
Apnews is reporting as of 20 minutes ago that he has returned to the Senate. https://apnews.com/article/mitch-mcconnell-senate-return-abe03e84e30a174da4076385692b5751
Still no video.
From the AP article:
Reporters and photographers were told by Senate staff not to take video of his remarks in the second-floor hallway, even though video is often permitted in that area. Still images were allowed.
So its deliberate
He’s probably a drooling vegetable then
Nope. Chuck Testa.
That’s an older one, but still checks out
So they don’t exist. Politicians don’t get to show up to work and be out of the public eye at the same time. Your a public figure, if you can’t do the job, it’s not yours
