The first thing that comes to mind when I read rehab is that he had a drinking problem caused by trying to keep the Tennessee distilleries afloat due to the tariff war

You can’t just say “He was released from care” without any fucking proof. His staff telling us isn’t proof and Forbes telling us that his staff told us, is even further from proof. You are so bad at this…

What is this feeble old man doing in our Senate? Both parties are guilty of letting decrepit seniors who can barely function bogart the reins of our government. We need a new rule. But the old men and women who don’t have the decency to retire will not be the ones to change the status quo.

Of course they are. They have nothing to offer the American people, so they might as well drag their sorry butts home. REMEMBER TO BUY NEW KNEEPADS for we wouldn’t want you to get sore knees

If this is true, there should be a voice recording of him saying this or a video of him saying this. Otherwise, unfortunately written words are not enough on this one. Will the real Mitch McConnell please contact the public by voice or video? We are concerned.

So how many of those reading this post get 5 weeks off in the summer? Let’s not forget the thanksgiving break, the Christmas break, the Easter break. On top of this most of congress don’t work much while they’re in DC other than soliciting campaign contributions and collecting other bribes.

Someday I want a job where I can just disappear for 6 weeks. Don't have to call my boss, no doctor's note, just a couple of AI photos as proof of life. Ah, privilege!

Hey @forbes, prove that headline with a picture of McConnell that's recent, like within the past two days. Otherwise, stop spinning GOP propaganda. Mitch McConnell's dead until proven otherwise.

Hes not. The corpse may be warm but its a vegetable at best. The atrophy alone at this point would be significantly dangerous to his body.

Wow, what a coincidence! Two days after August 4th. I'd imagine that he'll have a massive stroke as soon as he's home and the republicans in Kentucky will send another republican into Washington to replace him, since they can no longer have an election to fill the position in the interim.

I really wish I was able to get a 5 WEEK paid vacation. I also wish it had come with a $193,400.00 annual salary. I worked in retail, & education. I was lucky to 30,000.00 a year. Thankfully with benefits. Seeing my taxes pay his salary I wish I had his HEALTHCARE plan.

You would think with all the speculation on McConnell's life status, someone would have photos of him "leaving" the rehab and going home. With a mic in his face getting a verbal cue he isnt worm food.

Hey @Forbes editors. You know we know what he used to look like. A good journalistic outlet would run the photo of him leaving the [air quotes here] "rehab center," or not run one at all. You know better journalism. Be better.

the important thing is that he’s still getting taxpayer funded salary and healthcare while taking a five week paid vacation just like ALL americans

So sketch! I expected we’d hear something from McConnell this week. Was hoping he’d resign, but this is just another of his power moves, isn’t it? He knew the recess was coming. He can stall in silence for 5 more weeks. What a joke. Can’t wait till he’s gone. From office AND this life!

The House is out till August 31st. Senates out for 5 weeks. I guess the ‘majority supported’ Russian sanctions bill & daily death toll of Ukrainians isn’t enough to force these useless politicians to act. Doesn’t matter, the bill relies on the president who will never lift a finger to hurt Russia.

Give it a week before they announce he had a relapse at his house and he died. It’s passed the date they needed so now they’ll come out with it

Have any reporters seen him/filmed him being discharged?! Reporters should have been camped out at that facility 24/7. Now they have ANOTHER FIVE WEEKS in which to continue this cover-up.

I have some swamp land blah blah… It will be announced sometime in next 5 weeks that Mitch has unexpectedly died at home 🤡🪦🤦🏻‍♀️

Anyone supporting this sham of a dead or brain-dead senator being in "rehab" and returning to work soon, should be brought up on felony charges of obstructing Congress. That's his staff, his wife, and the Repugnant Reps claiming they spoke to him on the phone for "20 minutes".

Just in time to have a proxy vote on Todd fucking Pedo protector, lyin ass, crooked ass, dick ass, colostomy bag, asshole Blanche”, is voted on for AG!where di video of Moscow turtle Mitch?

Oh, and quit posting pictures of Mitch being carried down the aisle in June when the question is whether or not he is alive and competent today.

"This image shows U.S. Senator Mitch McConnell being assisted by security personnel at the U.S. Capitol on June 4, 2026." Forbes

You offer no proof that Mitch said ANYTHING. The text should read: 'A statement ATTRIBUTED TO McConnell said he will “maintain an intensive regimen of physical therapy from home during the state work period” and “continue to engage with my staff and colleagues on important Senate business.”'
