Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear says he's "heard absolutely nothing back from Mitch McConnell"

CBS News · back to the audit

Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear said Sunday that he hasn't heard back from Sen. Mitch McConnell following formal requests for updates on his health last month amid a weekslong hospitalization that prompted widespread speculation and concern. I've heard absolutely nothing back from Mitch McConnell, Beshear said on Face the Nation with Margaret Brennan. McConnell, 84, was hospitalized on June 14. All he needs to do is call into this show for two minutes, or Fox News for two minutes, or do a video for two minutes to the people he's supposed to serve. But you know what? He absolutely refuses to do it.
