Sen. Mitch McConnell's aides have made a bombshell admission after weeks of dodging inquiries from the press about the 84-year-old's health. The senator's team had previously refused to answer questions about his condition. McConnell was found unconscious at home and received CPR before being taken to the hospital last month, as revealed in an EMS call. The call revealed that McConnell may have suffered a heart attack at his home on June 14, with his staff waiting until June 22 to give an update on his condition, saying only that he would not be voting that week. McConnell's office issued its first statement about his health since June 22 only after the Daily Beast asked a series of critical questions and published a story highlighting their refusal to disclose the senator's whereabouts. In the emailed statement on Thursday, McConnell's team revealed that the senator is still in the hospital, almost three weeks after the June 14 emergency call.
An Air Force major was arrested in uniform on the steps of the Capitol after he called for the impeachment of President Donald Trump. U.S. Capitol Police arrested Jason Watson, an active-duty service member, on Wednesday afternoon following remarks at a news conference where he said Trump and Vice President JD Vance should be removed from office. The event was organized by the Removal Coalition, a group that lobbies members of Congress to impeach Trump, and attended by Rep. Al Green, D-Texas, who has repeatedly introduced articles of impeachment against Trump. "I'm here with him because Rep. Green is the only member of Congress that has demonstrated the courage and conviction to ... force a vote on articles of impeachment," Watson said at the event.
