Mitch McConnell was found unconscious in his Washington, D.C., home last month after what emergency crews described as a cardiac arrest situation. You need to hear what actually happened before this story gets spun or buried like so many others in D.C. This kind of Mitch McConnell health scare hits differently when you think about the people we send to Washington to make decisions that shape our lives. McConnell has dealt with health issues before — the falls, the concussion, the cracked ribs, and those public moments that raised eyebrows. Now we find out that back on June 14, he was unconscious at home, CPR was in progress, and he was rushed to the hospital. His team waited until the next day to say he was recovering and working on Senate business, but the full picture from the EMS call didn't surface publicly for over two weeks. Regular Americans are right to ask questions about whether the folks running the show are physically up to it, especially when transparency seems optional for the political class. Stories about Mitch McConnell unconscious incidents or Mitch McConnell cardiac arrest details shouldn't take this long to come out if trust is the goal. It just adds to the sense that there's one set of rules for them and another for everyone else. Pat also covered:
