Old Addison Whiskey!

Old man Addison McConnell.

The outgoing Minority Leader had a nasty fall and it appears that Republicans are quietly trying to force him out of the senate.

Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) is handing over his top leadership powers to his second banana, Sen. John Thune (R-SD). Thune will be the Senate Majority Leader come January.

The 119th Session of Congress is expected to be chaotic with Republicans once again in control.

McConnell who hasn't ruled out stepping down is not looking too well.

He fell and sprained his wrist while walking out of a GOP luncheon on Tuesday, the latest in a series of medical incidents for him in recent years.

McConnell, who is stepping down from his leadership post at the end of the year, was walking out of his weekly party lunch with Wyoming Sen. John Barrasso when he tripped and fell, Barrasso said, before walking back to his office on his own. Medical personnel were seen heading into his office minutes later.

The longtime Republican leader, 82, also has a cut on his face, his office said, but “has been cleared to resume his schedule.” He did not attend a scheduled news conference immediately after the luncheon.

Barrasso, the No. 3 Senate leader and a doctor, said McConnell was “fine” and “100 percent” alert after he tripped and fell.

McConnell later walked from his office to the Senate chamber for a vote, wearing a bandage on his left cheek and a brace on his left wrist.

His fall came after he was hospitalized with a concussion in March 2023 and missed several weeks of work after falling in a downtown hotel. After he returned, he twice froze up during news conferences that summer, staring vacantly ahead before colleagues and staff came to his assistance.

McConnell had polio in his early childhood and he has long acknowledged some difficulty as an adult in walking and climbing stairs. In addition to his 2023 fall, he also tripped and fell in 2019 at his home in Kentucky, causing a shoulder fracture that required surgery.

McConnell has been in the Senate since 1984 and has been Republican leader since 2007.

I wish the Democrats would replace Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY) as their senate leader. Schumer is going to cost the Democrats more seats if he remains the leader.

Oh by the way, McConnell, Thune, Schumer and Sen. Dick Durbin (D-IL) all support the apartheid ethnostate of Israel. They are old, senile, out of touch and just pathetic.

As I said earlier, I believe President Donald J. Trump will create chaos as he cognitively declines. He will not stop Israel. In fact, he is all on board with this Greater Israel and Project 2025 bullshit.

Our country is fucked.
