Heidi Harris discusses Mitch McConnell's health and lack of transparency.

What this episode covers

Here is the transcript of the final segment: Heidi Harris: You know, this whole thing with Mitch McConnell is ridiculous. Here's a guy who, apparently, he was found unconscious in his home last month. Now, I'm seeing some things on X, people like Laura Loomer—whether you like Laura Loomer or—or not, she seems to get a lot of things right—and some other people who are saying that, uh, Mitch McConnell—they're saying that she's saying he's, uh, officially brain-dead. That's what she's saying her high-level source close to the White House tells her, all right? So, that's my qualification. That he's officially brain-dead, he's not coming back. And there's a correspondent I've been watching on X for a couple days saying, "I've heard the same thing from my sources for days. At this point, I'm at the hospital for when they eventually decide to cut him off life support and move his body." Now here's the thing, guys. You know, how many times—and it's funny because this morning when I was preparing for the show, I just quickly Google searched "Mitch McConnell passed out" or "found unconscious." You know how many stories I came across? How many times this guy has collapsed in public? I hadn't even realized. I mean, what a joke this is. The—we've got to have some kind of cutoff for these people with their ages. Now, I'm not saying everybody who's 84 is, you know, addle-brained or un—unhealthy. That's not true, and that's not fair. But at some point, this is a young man's game, and young woman's game. And these people, we—it's ridiculous how they won't give up power. And I understand it's not just about them. Remember, just like Joe Biden, it's not really about the people themselves who won't give up power—sometimes it is—it's also about the people around them who don't want to give up power. Because if Mitch McConnell were to go, and they were to admit he were brain-dead, if indeed he is—and I don't know, it's being reported some places—if indeed he is brain-dead, then a whole lot of people are going to lose their jobs who probably work for him for a long time. Nobody wants that to happen, right? So you're going to cover for your boss. You know, Weekend at Bernie's whatever, even though he was not the boss. But you, you know, I— [laughs] We, the people, are owed an explanation on this. How can you hide the fact that somebody's not coming back, if that's true? And there's been no evidence that he's going to survive. June 14th, suffered a heart attack, and nobody's heard a word from him since. Not a word. McConnell's spokesman said on the day of the incident he was admitted to the hospital this morning and was receiving excellent care. Aha. Next day, spokesman David Popp said McConnell was working closely with staff on Senate business and Kentucky matters as he continues his recovery. Oh, really? Senate Majority Leader John Thune said his predecessor was dialed in on their conference's legislative business, and Thune actually said he spoken to him by—on the phone. Really? True? Is that true? I mean, we, the people, have a right to know this, don't you think? Know what's going on? Terrible. You know, it's all about who is going to run, and there's a certain date, but— yeah, I'm not going to even get into the weeds of Kentucky politics, but it's kind of a big deal. And then, to top it all off with a big cherry, his wife, we're now finding out, was meeting with China's vice president three days after he was hospitalized. Elaine Chao—remember her? Former transportation secretary? She met with one of China's top officials in Beijing, the vice president. Mhm. Vice President Han Zheng met with him on June 17th. Did I mention that Mitch McConnell was— I'm going to go back here, I've got my— see, I've got it right here. June 14th. Now, I don't know about you, I've been married almost 25 years, love my husband very much. If he were hospitalized on June 14th, I can promise you I would not be in China on June 17th. I can promise you that. ...
