Oh No! Mitch McConnell Hospitalized After Tripping and Falling at a DC Hotel

I was holding this for Quick Hits, but I see that people wish to be heard on this issue. So here's a brief post about the sad news that has caused every conservative's heart to skip a beat.

He was at a "private dinner" which I assume is DC jargon for "collecting payoff money from his Chinese handlers."


Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell remained in the hospital Thursday following a fall at a Washington, D.C., hotel, Wednesday night.

"This evening, Leader McConnell tripped at a local hotel during a private dinner. He has been admitted to the hospital where he is receiving treatment," McConnell's spokesperson Doug Andres told ABC News Wednesday night.

As of Thursday morning, his team was not providing any further information on the extent of McConnell's injuries or how long he is expected to remain hospitalized.

Prayers.

What kind of prayers?, one might wonder.

Mind your own beeswax. We all pray in our own way for our own purposes. I'm praying for the intervention of Saint Nunya Buzniss.

BTW, the really fun news is that Mitch McConnell has been trying out Harry Reid's exercise equipment.

What a terrible thing to say.

On the issue of appointment of a replacement, should that come up: The Governor gets to appoint a replacement, and he's a Democrat. However, the Republicans who control the legislature got a little worried about Corruption Turtle's health and passed a law stating that while the governor can appoint a replacement for a senator who is unable to complete his term, he must choose from a list of acceptable replacements submitted by the legislature.

The governor claims this isn't constitutional. I think it will hold up; other states do something similar.

36 “I’m not exaggerating when I say you have called two witnesses who pose a direct threat to people who oppose them,” Plaskett said after the video.

Chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, Republican Rep. Jim Jordan of Ohio, had a simple response to her accusations:

“It’s crazy what you were just saying.”

“You don’t want people to see what happened,” Jordan continued.

“The full video, transparency. You don’t want that, and you don’t want two journalists who have been named personally by the Biden administration, the FTC in a letter. They say they’re here to help and tell their story, and frankly, I think they’re brave individuals for being willing to come after being named in a letter from the Biden FTC.”

Taibbi fires back: "I'm not a so-called journalist. I've won the National Magazine Award, the I.F. Stone Award for Independent Journalism, and I've written 10 books."

Senators were originally selected by State Legislators. They changed that with 17th Amendment. There has never been anything about governors selecting replacements at all. So that's more unconstitutionaler than the State Legislature.

155 Credentialism only works when you agree with the narrative.
Posted by: TheJamesMadison

Credentialism is based on on agreeing with the narrative. The only way to get that credentialist status is to support the current narrative.

Look, the majority of "notable public thinkers" be they sports stars or astrophysicists or well regarded mechanical engineer stars of children's programming, cement their position as experts by supporting other experts in areas that they are not specialists in. Generally they neither have the background to understand outside of their silos or a disinclination to question since that also lays them open to other people questioning their competence as well.

So, a PhD in history from Columbia and a statistics expert in Florida get together to review evidence on the real time usefulness of masking, and they are screamed down as 'not-credible as they are unqualified to review such things' but some mannish chick named Rachel on TV reports what the experts say, and she is credible since she supports the narrative.

Once a culture of corruption takes over an institution, there's nothing much new blood can do. If an honest man joins a company of brigands, he'll become a brigand; the company won't become honest men. One of the reasons I'd never run for office: the only option available to me would be to feather my own nest as best I could while representing soulless international conglomerates rather than my supposed constituents.

187 “There were 28 possible cases of anxiety in school students,” said Hugo Torres, head of the Galeras Educational Institution in Galeras, where the incident took place, per Jam Press.

According to the outlet, alarm bells went off after the girls reportedly suffered signs of fainting, anxiety and other symptoms at school. They were subsequently admitted to a municipal hospital accompanied by parents and school faculty.

Info on the students’ diagnoses has yet to be released, however many parents blame the in-school use of Ouija boards, a Jumanji-esque pursuit that uses a sliding pointer to spell out messages in a mysterious way.

>As luck would have it, Gillis shot the head off a bird "no bigger than a sparrow" just minutes before Laird and his second arrived for the duel. When it was asked who shot the bird, Gillis said Clemens had done it from 30 yards.

199 "The second took Mr. Laird home, a little tottery on his legs, and Laird sent back a note in his own hand declining to fight a duel with me on any terms whatever," Twain wrote in his autobiography. "Well, my life was saved— saved by that accident. I don't know what the bird thought about that interposition of Providence, but I felt very, very comfortable over it — satisfied and content. Now, we found out, later, that Laird had hit his mark four times out of six, right along. If the duel had come off, he would have so filled my skin with bullet-holes that it wouldn't have held my principles."

203 On July 1, 1833, at age 77, Burr married Eliza Jumel, a wealthy widow who was 19 years younger. They lived together briefly at her residence which she had acquired with her first husband, the Morris-Jumel Mansion in the Washington Heights neighborhood in Manhattan. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, it is now preserved and open to the public.

Soon after the marriage, Jumel realized her fortune was dwindling due to Burr's land speculation losses, so she separated from him after four months of marriage. She chose ALEXANDER HAMILTON Jr .as HER DIVORCE LAWYER in 1834, the same year Burr suffered an immobilizing stroke.

253 One day after the biggest crypto-focused bank, Silvergate Capital, announced plans to unwind and liquidate after a deposit run effectively killed its core business model, this morning its far larger peer - the parent company of the venerable Silicon Valley Bank, SVB Financial Group - saw its shares plunge the most in more than two decades after the company took "steps to bolster its financial position" that included not only a highly dilutive stock offering but also a panicked asset sale that sparked fears of a liquidity crisis at one of the biggest and original providers of funding to the Venture Capital industry.

The Santa Clara-based company’s shares sank by as much as 60% on Thursday, their biggest decline in the company's history since going public in 1987. The slump in the shares to their lowest level since May 2020, came after SVB i) announced a stock offering, ii) sold substantially all of the available-for-sale securities in its portfolio and iii) updated its forecast for the year to include a sharper decline in net interest income.

- When they started denying the virus was a lab leak, I understood that this is information that you simply can not hide. I am impressed they suppressed it so long, but certain facts are impossible to keep down -- specifically complex quantifiable facts like the sequences or all the events around that lab.

-I felt the same about the election. It is impossible to fake such complex data convincingly and any serious audit would reveal any fraud. Again, they have suppressed but for how long can they keep it up? I think they are worried. I think that is why they are panicked over Tucker releasing such insignificant and obvious details.

First, there has to be an RFQ issued. Then vendors have to respond to the request with their quotes. The people selecting the vendor then play all of the vendors off of each-other to maximize the kickbacks and graft. Once the graft has been maximized - and never before the graft exceeds 25% of the pre-graft unit price - the contract can be issued.

Then each site needs to go through environmental and infrastructure review to ensure that no wetlands are harmed, no air pollution is created, that the local grid can handle that charging station in that location, etc. This process takes approximately 8-10 years from start to finish, assuming no issues arise. Then the work has to be subcontracted a few times, assigned to a minority-owned, union-backed business with no personnel, personnel must be hired and trained, then construction can begin. Construction will be completed when the installer fails and subcontracts it back to the first contractor at a higher final price.

Call it 15 years, give or take. Each until will come in at 300% of initial budget.

421 Jesus "wowed" a few with miracles ( the mule headed no doubt) , but it is clear in the biblical texts his sway with people was his ability to "see into their hearts" as only the creator could.
===
Or maybe there's more, so many more that they decided not to put them all down. And miracles not just for the mule headed but for everyone who needed help. The crowds came, not just for good feelings, healing.

note well . . . John
"This is the disciple who testifies to these things and who has written them down. And we know that his testimony is true. 25 There are many more things that Jesus did. If all of them were written down, I suppose that not even the world itself would have space for the books that would be written."

When a VIP has an accident, they usually give updates in increments

I remember Princess Diana---it went like this

*she's been in an accident
* she's injured, but condition unknown
* she's seriously injured, but stable
*she's in critical condition
* she's gravely injured
*she's dead

The whole process took four hours of TV time, but she was dead when the first reports came in

I watched about 2 hours of it. Trump, Mueller, J6, sources. Injected "you should know how this works" a few times when Taibbi tried to respond to their non question questions. The commies were all over the place. Wassername, who is horrible to look at, she tried a "gotcha" on Taibbi with a giant card with a statement he made on Rogan. The next R rep let him respond. Taibbi was loosely quoting a Ukrainian author.

458 McConnell says “it was a mistake” for Fox News to depict #Jan6th “in a way that's completely at variance with what our chief law enforcement official here at the Capitol thinks.”

1. Mistake def An error or fault resulting from defective judgment, deficient knowledge, or carelessness
No, that is not what happened. They had weeks of forethought and planning.
2. To depict To represent in words; describe.
There was ZERO depiction. It was a direct set of images (moving that is) taken from an electronic system that is used in every safety and security process in the modern world and can be used in law enforcement and in court rooms as testimony.
