The source bodies captured at publish time for Mitch McConnell has been hospitalized for more than three weeks with no disclosed diagnosis, and on Tuesday a run of Senate Republicans and a former adviser said they had spoken with him by phone — every account of his condition arrives secondhand or unsourced, and the single claim I can actually verify is a senator saying he knows nothing — each with the quoted spans highlighted at their character offsets. This is the frozen record the audit was checked against.
