Wall Street Journal: “Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) and his staff released a new statement and photo Monday. But they did little to resolve the central question: Will the longtime lawmaker be able to return to work?”“The 84-year-old senator has now been absent due to health reasons for more than 40 days, with no sign that he will get back to Capitol Hill before the Senate goes on summer recess in less than two weeks. If he doesn’t return to the Senate this month, he will likely miss votes on confirming the new Director of National Intelligence and attorney general—and miss out on fights over funding the federal government and securing more funding for the Pentagon to pay for the Iran war.”
