Mitch McConnell spotted in a wheelchair at DCA Airport on November 6, 2024<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

A photo of Senator Mitch McConnell in a wheelchair at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport on November 6 was posted to X after The Floridian Press captured video of the 82-year-old barely able to walk after a fall.<\/p>\n

The reporter who captured the photo said it is evidence McConnell is struggling with age and health problems beyond what is being projected publicly.<\/p>\n

After McConnell\u2019s fall yesterday, @ryangrim<\/a> and I thought it was fair to share this photo we got from DCA the day after the election. Not a bombshell, but evidence the senator is struggling with age beyond what\u2019s being projected publicly. pic.twitter.com\/kIUmWmD8KL<\/a><\/p>\n

Shocking video <\/a>of Senator Mitch McConnell needing assistance to walk after his fall was posted to X this week.<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The 82-year-old Kentucky Senator fell down and sprained his wrist at a Senate Republican luncheon on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

Disturbing video taken by The Floridian Press on Wednesday shows McConnell can barely walk after his fall.<\/p>\n

There were three people holding McConnell as he walked, according to the video.<\/p>\n

TRAGIC<\/p>\n

New leaked video shows the disturbing realization that 82-year-old Senator Mitch McConnell can barely walk after his fall yesterday.<\/p>\n

Is it time for him to retire? pic.twitter.com\/SwG6P14cbe<\/a><\/p>\n

\u2014 Conservative Brief (@ConservBrief) December 11, 2024<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

In 2022, McConnell suffered from freezing episodes that left him catatonic.<\/p>\n

McConnell was holding a press conference in Covington, Kentucky 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

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

BREAKING NEWS: Sen. Mitch McConnell appearing to have another scary episode in the media gaggle in Covington today. Aides had to step in to help him out and repeat questions. He was eventually lead away. We\u2019ll have the full video on @WLWT<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/q9ex5MHxLV<\/a><\/p>\n

As TGP\u2019s Kristinn Taylor\u00a0reported<\/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 April 2022.<\/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 previous statement.<\/p>\n

Senator Rand Paul is not buying the \u201cdehydration\u201d explanation.<\/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,\u2019\u201d Rand Paul, a physician previously said to reporters.<\/p>\n
