The governor of Kentucky, Andy Beshear, says he hasn't heard ANYTHING from Mitch McConnell or his camp.

This is 100% UNACCEPTABLE.

It's because John Thune is blocking inquiries.

Pathetic.

[CaliRN619 🚑🩺🚑 @CaliRN619]

As a 20 year ER/Trauma RN, let me tell you a little bit about CPR that none of the tv shows will.

To do proper CPR, you have to push down on the chest HARD & fast. If you’re doing it correctly on anyone over the age of 70, multiple ribs will be broken and the sternum bruised. When you have multiple broken ribs, we call it “flail chest” and even if the person gets back a heartbeat, they’ll be unable to breathe properly because the chest cavity is no longer supported. So, you’ll likely need to be intubated rapidly and we sometimes break off your teeth in the process. It’s not pretty. It’s not peaceful. And it sure as hell isn’t painless.

Now, all of that is if you have your heart stop while in the hospital and you get a trained team. For patients over 80, if you need pre-hospital CPR, your survival rate is about 2%. Even if you do survive, your life is a living hell. You can’t laugh, breathe, cough or sneeze for up to a year without severe pain. You likely lost brain function due to the time without oxygen. Your mobility is impaired because you’ve been in bed for so long and many will never get out of bed again.

But @SenMcConnell ’s people want us to believe he’s already up and functioning as a member of Congress. I call bullshit. Complete and utter bullshit. The man was gorked for the last 5 years and there’s no way he’s miraculously healthy enough to vote on matters that impact our country after this.

He must be removed immediately. Isn’t fair to him or us to continue this farce.

Lastly, if you’re over 70, I beg you not to be a full code (make sure your loved ones know you don’t want CPR or intubation) and for the love of God, if you’re over 80, make sure you’re a DNR and have your POLST form on your refrigerator, in your wallet, and in your medical records so your poor family doesn’t have to make the decision for you. There’s nothing worse than being forced to break the chest of a frail granny because the kids are too sad to let her go or because the asshole grandkids want more time to have her write them into the will.

I'm really confused about how Mitch McConnell is allowed to be dead and still occupy his Kentucky seat in congress.

He either passed, or he's not fit to serve anymore. It's sad, but that's life

We can't just have a ghost in the Senate. Why is the @GOP avoiding this issue

[Erica 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 @EricaRN4USA]

As a critical care nurse, looking at Senator Mitch McConnell’s situation through an ICU lens tells a very different story from the public updates.

Following the release of emergency audio detailing an unconscious person and active CPR for cardiac arrest at his residence on June 14, his staff issued a statement claiming he continues to improve and is working closely with his office. 🙄

However, anyone with extensive bedside experience knows that for an 84-year-old frail patient who has sustained an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest requiring full resuscitation, the idea that he is actively participating in daily Senate business is highly unlikely.

The brutal physical trauma of chest compressions combined with the high risk of acute neurological insult makes a return to a high-functioning baseline virtually impossible for someone with his preexisting vulnerabilities.

From my clinical perspective, the statistical chances of a full recovery are slim to none, serving as a stark reminder that political status cannot override physiological limits.

Who agrees that his constituents and the rest of America deserves the truth? 🤔

Before you tell people not to celebrate a death; Mitch McConnell blocked cancer research for 9/11 firefighters on three separate occasions.

[Suzie rizzio @Suzierizzo1]

From what I’m hearing Mitch McConnell is allegedly on life support after going into cardiac arrest and becoming unconscious and unresponsive at his home where paramedics did CPR and took him to the hospital.Republicans don’t want the truth to come out before the midterms.

You’ll all be happy to know that Qatar did not pay for Taylor Swift’s event nor did she use any taxpayer dollars…

Unlike Donald Trump.

BREAKING: Both Governors JB Pritzker and Katie Hobbs are removing any tax incentives in existence for data centers from their states. Data centers will have to pay their fair share in Illinois and Arizona. Let’s go.

@elonmusk @ktinapap @FoxNews Takes some nerve to be one of the biggest government welfare queens in history and then accuse others of being takers-especially with that apartheid colonial outlook.

@elonmusk @FoxNews Sorry best we could do was make up stories about flying to Mars and cutting off food and medicine for dying African babies. Spacex is running off government subsidies Elon

@elonmusk @FoxNews Please, Mr. Musk, lecture us on the depravity of being a “taker.”

Please don't forget the Trump family is barred from ever running another charity in NY because they stole from a Children's Cancer Charity. A Children's Cancer Charity. A FUCKING CHILDREN'S CANCER CHARITY!

[Citizens for Ethics @CREWcrew]

This Fourth of July, we think it's important to remind everyone that:

Presidents are not kings.
The Constitution is not optional.
No one is above the law.
And Trump is the most corrupt president in American history.

@atrupar FREEEDOM or FREEDOM?

Seems either is ok.
