As we investigate the possibility that others were running Senator McConnell’s office as his health visibly declined, let’s not forget this: when I recorded this video on February 26, 2026, Senator McConnell had reportedly been in the ICU at George Washington University Hospital from February 2–10, according to a hospital source.

This could just be a coincidence, but not long after the announcement that Senate Majority Leader John Thune had spoken with Mitch McConnell, the U.S. Secret Service arrived at GW Hospital.

Senator Mitch McConnell has now been hospitalized for three weeks. The gravity of this situation cannot be overstated, especially given that his wife, Elaine Chao, appeared in China just days after his hospitalization to meet with high-ranking Chinese officials. The question now is about national security: if Senator McConnell has been unable to independently perform his duties, what safeguards exist to ensure classified intelligence briefings, defense appropriations information, or other sensitive congressional matters could not be accessed, discussed, or shared by individuals operating behind the scenes? And given the timing of Chao’s meeting with China’s vice president, what exactly was discussed?

Remember this gem from May 13, 2026? Is it starting to make sense now? The bigger question is: Who was behind the staffer? Elaine Chao?

I just spoke with a neighbor who lives next door to Senator Mitch McConnell. She said she was there when the medical emergency occurred and saw him being taken to the hospital. According to her, she has not seen anyone at the home since that day.

Here is another video I posted showing Sen. McConnell’s staff giving him directions, this time on the Senate floor. Together with my earlier reporting, it documents what appears to be his decline from speaking on the floor in 2025, to his January 30, 2026 speech.

I reviewed Kentucky House Bill 622, I cannot find any section or clause within this bill that would substantiate this August 3 deadline. In fact, based upon the law passed in 2024, it looks like presumably a special election could be called up until approximately November 9th, 56 days before the new Congress is sworn in on January 3. If someone has an actual statute they can point to substantiating the August 3 date, I would love to see it.

Who are “they” when people say Mitch McConnell’s health is being hidden? Who legally controls end-of-life decisions, why the August 3 theory doesn’t appear to benefit either party, and the only person who has a plausible motive to conceal his health or keep him on a prolonged life-support, is likely only his wife, Elaine Chao.

Entering Day 20 of Senator Mitch McConnell’s hospitalization following his June 14, 2026, medical emergency, with questions about who is running his office… questions that have intensified after his wife, Elaine Chao, traveled to Beijing & met with Chinese Vice President Han Zheng just days after McConnell’s hospitalization.

Elaine Chao demonstrated detailed knowledge of ongoing Senate negotiations in November 2025, including discussions surrounding a continuing resolution (CR). She also referred to the negotiations as “sensitive” and discussed the potential impact of a government shutdown on the FAA. Given her familiarity with sensitive congressional negotiations, could she have shared information with Chinese Vice President Han Zheng during their June 17 meeting regarding how her husband’s absence from a Senate vote might affect fiscal year 2027 appropriations?

Redskins are back and on a much better team! I filed multiple REDSKINS trademark applications at the USPTO on behalf of the family of Chief Two Guns. The applications are in my name, until I complete the legal lift of canceling the NFL’s abandoned marks through TTAB.

Redskins was not racist it was named after the Blackfeet tribe who painted their skin red with war paint & a red mineral sunscreen. The logo represented Chief John Two Guns White Calf who was a Blackfeet chief. Susan Harjo’s frivolous lawsuit was the reason why he was canceled.
