Same old liver lips, same old frog croak sac, same old weak retrognathia, same old deep set lifeless vacant eyes, and how has he not accidentally shaved off that mole skin tag thing?
Honest question. If the opposition can't even get on paper if a guy is dead or not, then why would you think Trump, Witkoff, Miller and all ICE agents will ever be held responsible or even stand trial?
Honest answer - no one really believes there will be consequences, but thinking one day there might be is important for the collective mental health, physical health too, since they are related.
The Office of the Attending Physician, a federal agency, stated in writing that he's "maintained a strenuous course of physical therapy and rehabilitation, including multiple sessions a day designed to rebuild strength and reduce the risk of future falls": https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c5yd8k3rgj7o So either the world's most incompetent regime somehow manages to pull an ongoing cover-up on a level only seen in Hollywood movies, or a bunch of social media nutcases are making shit up again.
I'd say proof of life isn't enough. Proof of competency should be included. It's possible he had a stroke and is alive but unable to communicate or understand what's going on. That would also necessitate a special election while eliminating technicalities.
The issue is that the Kentucky (Republican supermajority) Legislature severely kneecapped the Governor's office in this regard, and he can only call it if he's actually dead or resigned.
They don't even have a "proof of competency" should the President order a nuclear strike, just a "proof of authenticity" to make sure that it's the President who gives the order.
That's a different situation, but I'd agree if there were something indicating there was reason to doubt. The reason there isn't a requirement is that we've never needed one before.
Hiding his medical status should be criminal regardless of whether he's in a coma or a vegetable or just stone dead; that's tantamount to fraud and election interference.
People aren't even asking for proof that he's able to hold a 5 minute conversation, they literally just want evidence that he's even breathing, and they can't pony that up? Give the cunts 48 hours to prove he's not worm food and if they refuse, move forward on the assumption that he's burning in hell.
There is no proof of life that’s tied to any consequential entity. Take a look at who is actually making the statements, how they’re saying it, and what their actual verified sources look like. There’s nothing behind it.
IIRC, said legislation only became a thing when he was elected governor. There were a few powers that suddenly had special legislation to have them removed whenever Beshear came into office.
You don't get it, it's illegal for him to go that until the seat is vacant, he either has to be expelled, resign, or be declared dead, so anyone can challenge the special election, not just McConnell, he literally doesn't have to make an appearance throughout the entire ordeal.
Hiding a dead senator is illegal too, along with election fraud. If you stay within bounds of the law while the opposition invents new ones and ignores inconvenient ones, fascism WILL win. Call the election, let Mitch protest it in court if he can (we all know he cant). Why lay down while they steamroll you?
Not until the 4th or 6th of August, I believe, according to someone who said that was the line when they had to wait for the actual election, and if he died before, another could be sworn in (likely a democrat?). Idk I just remember something about August. I'm old and don't live in merica.
If you were proven to be deceased, the Governor of Kentucky would call a special election and the people would vote. Kentucky is not allowed to appoint someone to fill a vacant seat in Congress.
The seat has to become vacant prior to the August deadline to allow a special election. The seat remains vacant after the deadline passes. That makes people assume that Mitch is on ice until the deadline passes, forcing the seat to remain unfilled by default.

If you're hiding a corpse until Aug 4 to avoid a special election, you may be committing election fraud.

Their pay should be docked every time they miss a vote. It is not an entitlement. It is a job and a service position.

Exactly. Sleeperkid is paying a pedophile to post on the pedophile site, then cross-posting their "zings" to imgur.

I’ve heard from multiple sources that he can hold a conversation at least 4 times that long! /s

The governor should stop fucking about and call a special election.
MadamPuddifoot
He literally can't. The Republicans made sure he can't with legislation saying he CAN'T.

IIRC, said legislation only became a thing when he was elected governor. There were a few powers that suddenly had special legislation to have them removed whenever Beshear came into office.

He can't until he resigns or is legally declared dead

If mitch wants to challenge the new election then let him. Clocks ticking.

Illegal? Literally who cares? Republicans just do illegal things every week and consistently get away it. Democrats need to start doing the same.

has he been proven dead yet?

So is the August thing like a line for special election or having to wait for the other one?

thank you for clearing that up for me, I like reading conspiracy theories to debunk them, but I don't always fully understand them. Thank you again!

Sadly no, apparently he was sent home from the hospital today, and sadly not in a casket/urn/bodybag

That article says he's at a rehabilitation centre. But still no proof of life.
He's been dead for weeks now. They are lying. It's what they do.
gruntabulousbeans
Still, nobody's seen him. Claiming he went home isn't much of a proof of life.
