    Reporters and photographers were told by Senate staff not to take video of his remarks in the second-floor hallway, even though video is often permitted in that area. Still images were allowed.

    From the AP article

    Something is fucked for sure with this and they are all covering it up

    Video would make his unresponsive condition apparent.

    He’s being kept alive.

    Sure, but this specific combination of words was selected to mirror the same phrase spoken by Poe in Rise of Skywalker.

    The joke is that, like J. J. Abrams, the authors of our timeline are out of ideas and just reuse existing villains instead of creating new interesting ones.

    “My recovery has been a long and often frustrating process, and the lingering effects of childhood polio haven’t made it any easier,” McConnell said

    The only thing that makes sense to me is he's completely unable to speak. Other than that, no idea why everything would have unfolded the way it did and is.

    Edit: He's talking too. Something stinks. Not saying it's not him, but there's something being hidden for sure.

    It took some time for the dark magic absorbed through the ritual sacrifice of Lindsey Graham to fully restore Mitch to a shadow of his living self.

    Every ladybug contained the essence of one youth. One young male, kept on Lindsey Graham’s body. Lindsey was the unholy vessel of the philosopher’s kidney stones. A host like no other. They had to use every single ladybug on Mitch. It wasn’t enough…

    he's a millionaire, why is he riding around in a Travel Wheelchair? (cheapest, least comfortable option, usually only used when travelling for the fact that it can be collapsed quite small for car journeys)
