Senator Rand Paul, a physician, doubted the official narrative being pushed out by Mitch McConnell\u2019s handlers to explain away his freezing episodes<\/a>. <\/p>\n

81-year-old Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell is \u201cmedically clear<\/a>\u201d to continue work after he froze up for the second time within the last month on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

And this is just what we have seen in public. Certainly, McConnell is having these episodes in private as well.<\/p>\n

McConnell was holding a press conference in Covington, Kentucky last Wednesday when he went into a catatonic state.<\/p>\n

Mitch McConnell temporarily froze and was unable to speak. An aide came to his rescue and promptly ended the press conference.<\/p>\n

Late last month McConnell became unresponsive and stared blankly during a Senate press conference.<\/p>\n

As TGP\u2019s Kristinn Taylor reported<\/a>, McConnell suffered a concussion and a broken bone after a fall in March. He was hospitalized and did a stint in rehab before returning to the Senate in mid-April.<\/p>\n

A Capitol physician suggested McConnell is experiencing small seizures due to dehydration.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have consulted with Leader McConnell and conferred with his neurology team. After evaluating yesterday\u2019s incident, I have informed Leader McConnell that he is medically clear to continue with his schedule as planned. Occasional lightheadedness is not uncommon in concussion recovery and can also be expected as a result of dehydration,\u201d Capitol physician Brian Monahan said in a statement last Thursday.<\/p>\n

Senator Rand Paul is not buying it.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think it\u2019s an inadequate explanation to say this is dehydration\u2026 Well, I practiced medicine for 25 years and it doesn\u2019t look like dehydration to me, it looks like a focal neurologic event,’\u201d Rand Paul said to reporters on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

WATCH:<\/p>\n

Sen. Rand Paul does not buy the “dehydration” explanation for Mitch McConnell’s “freezing” event.<\/p>\n
