Arbaz Kakkar5 @arbazkakkar5.bsky.social · 21/07/2026Governor Beshear... Get in your car. Drive to the hospital. Demand to speak to the Senator. No more waffling, no more waiting for them to reply. "I see the Senator now, or I assume he's not coming back and call an election when I leave." 801548338
Jackie Knott @benignoldbiddy.bsky.social · 21/07/2026Beshear can appoint a replacement NOW because there is no "proof of life" .... Then, that appointee can run on their own merit. Appoint a DEMOCRAT, sir. 100
Johnny Sokko- DO NOT OBEY IN ADVANCE! @ronin357.bsky.social · 21/07/2026Beshear is complicit, follow the $! 000
Sciencematters @totoroandscience.bsky.social · 21/07/2026Beshear is an antagonistic colleague and security would be promptly called. But let’s pretend he illegally gets in there somehow. By what qualifications is he competent to determine cognitive functioning? Stop pushing Laura Loomer’s rumors. The Dems are stronger in his absence given the vote margin. 010
Nina Karina @linuskk.bsky.social · 22/07/2026Isn't that the Senate leadership's responsibility and not a state governor who relies on Republican voters? 000
Oscar Acosta @oscaracostajd.bsky.social · 22/07/2026If the roles were reversed, Republicans would have shitcanned a Democratic senator if he came back from lunch more than 15 minutes late. But Republicans understand how politics work in this country. Democrats are aggressively complacent and weak. 000
lizmckenzie55 @lizmckenzie55.bsky.social · 21/07/2026What hospital? Do you know what hospital? I saw reporting that he's in a rehab facility. Even if Beshar knew where MM is, Beshar would be breaking the HIPPA law. To my knowledge there is no carve out for any segment of the population - the law applies to everyone. I loathe MM but come on! 🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️ 010
🇨🇦 Canada 🇨🇦 @monty18aj.bsky.social · 21/07/2026Its simple. For all practical purposes, he's deceased. Hooked up to saline drip, a urinary catheter, breathing via a ventilator, excreting into a diaper, etc., etc., aren't actions of a living person. 100
Kyle √ McCullough @kylebmccullough.bsky.social · 21/07/2026He's not in the hospital anymore. They moved him to an undisclosed, probably refrigerated, location. 020
Kim the Entirely Fed Up @ks116-m.bsky.social · 21/07/2026He’s going to wait it out until after the August deadline and then say there was nothing he could do. Same old game. 140
wahusk.bsky.social @wahusk.bsky.social · 21/07/2026Governor: this is doing severe damage to any current or future Presidential aspirations you might hold. 000
Rhymenoceros @rhymenoceros.bsky.social · 21/07/2026It’s even easier than this. As the head of the executive beshear needs to have him declared dead. Force the republicans to come to him 021
Link is to CBS story re deportations @tc40219.bsky.social · 21/07/2026@govandybeshear.bsky.social Kentuckians are waiting as is the rest of sane Americans! The ball is in your court. They only thing that I will add to the above is to take local media with you so they can capture the entire event in real-time, and if you don't see and talk to #MoscowMitch you can call 100
Poor Busy Dad @busypoordad.bsky.social · 21/07/2026He can not call an election until the sectary of state informs him officially of the vacancy. His driving and barging into the rehab center demanding to know Mitch’s personal medical information is not likely. 010
StellaMay 🇵🇸🇱🇧🇸🇩🇸🇸 @stellamay7.bsky.social · 21/07/2026You really should repost rather than stealing other people's words. 290
Absurd_Dad @absurddad.bsky.social · 21/07/2026Helps if you TAG @govandybeshear.bsky.social otherwise you're just yelling into the digital wind. And fuck visiting the corpse...set the special election date. Let the GOP sue AND habeus corpus. Discovery alone will be DELICIOUS. 010
Blah Gerrera @blah-gerrera.bsky.social · 21/07/2026And while you are there ask the doctors to check if you have bslls 000
ss278.bsky.social @ss278.bsky.social · 21/07/2026He should. He won’t. I held out great hope for him. Just another wimpy Democrat. 010
Sumo Mouse @chuuzumou.bsky.social · 21/07/2026This guy wants to be president but can’t find out if his own senator is alive 000
Brion @mntngroove.bsky.social · 21/07/2026Please tag him in posts like these. @govandybeshear.bsky.social @andybeshearky.bsky.social 000
Hal @txhal.bsky.social · 21/07/2026It's kind of a long drive from the governor's place in Kentucky to whatever DC hospital is holding the turtle's body 000
ellenahzulu.bsky.social @ellenahzulu.bsky.social · 21/07/2026Gov. Beshear has undoubtedly already sought extensive professional advice on this topic. He & his advisors have war-gamed it & know far more about the particulars, the granular details & the legal impacts of making different moves & the timing of these than you or I would know. 4140
Smapti @smaptimania.bsky.social · 22/07/2026Yes, let's call a special election so we can replace the Republican who isn't voting with a Republican who WILL vote. (headdesk) 010
Jeremiah "Soylent Green is People" Johnson @ecocentroid.bsky.social · 21/07/2026Governor Andy is now playing "the coward of the county." 000
The Left Hand of John Brown @lefthandofjb.bsky.social · 21/07/2026it’s sad to see posts like this. i think it’s because people don’t realize that corpo dems are not entirely in the thrall of the same oligarchs that control republicans, and they’re just pretending to be the opposition. 010
defiantlygay.bsky.social @defiantlygay.bsky.social · 21/07/2026Actually, that's not a bad idea. Beshear should bring the media. The national media. 000
Observations on the Failings of Humanity @justinstarren.bsky.social · 21/07/2026Or at least offer to visit and make them refuse. 000
stephthethird.bsky.social @stephthethird.bsky.social · 21/07/2026Andy isn't interested in doing anything other than press conferences for attention. Actually dealing with the McConnell situation seems like a pain in the ass and far less fun. If Mitch kicked the bucket and I think he did, his POA is committing massive employment and benefits fraud. 000
curiousgeorge2025.bsky.social @curiousgeorge2025.bsky.social · 21/07/2026What are waiting for? Call it. Produce the body or a new appointee. By this Friday. 000
jenniexplainsitall.bsky.social @jenniexplainsitall.bsky.social · 21/07/2026Call the special election, and make the Republicans fucking prove that McConnell is still alive enough to serve! 1321
RevBug is mathing: (8+6)+(4+7)=25th Amendment @revbug.bsky.social · 21/07/2026Yes, and HIPAA laws state that unless Beshear is on the list of approved persons, the hospital staff cannot even confirm that he is at the hospital. 020
lyndelljoe.bsky.social @lyndelljoe.bsky.social · 21/07/2026100%, but most of these pols are all talk, no action pussies, so he won't. It's all about preserving their positions. 000
jtsundowning.bsky.social @jtsundowning.bsky.social · 21/07/2026Call the police and ask for a welfare check or report him as a missing person It’s been over a month for fuck’s sake 0200
Bobbie Deluxe @bobbiedeluxe.bsky.social · 21/07/2026Mitch is in a rehab facility in Washington DC. Governor Beshear is in Kentucky. 110
What eva @whadevs.bsky.social · 21/07/2026THANK YOU! I’ve been saying this since he sent that ridiculous letter! GO SEE FOR YOURSELF! You’re the Governor I would NEVER vote for you again if you don’t take this matter serious enough to do the right thing by personally seeing McConnel!! WTF is wrong with Dems?!!!!! 000
Lisa Schiff @crkrjx.bsky.social · 21/07/2026you kind of have to use the @ sign and then his name and the bluesky suffix, like this @govandybeshear.bsky.social 000
Linda Noel @lindanoel8.bsky.social · 21/07/2026Governor Beshear is a fucking coward. He isn't going to make waves cos it might upend his lifetime paycheck. The entire state of Kentucky couldn't scrape together enough of a spine to find the body? It's not hard. It's hooked up to a machine somewhere. You'd think one hospital custodian... 010
Rusty @rusty-baxter.bsky.social · 21/07/2026DEMOCRATS MUST STOP BEING MR. NICE GUYS. That time is past in America 000
C. D. @orbcynthus1.bsky.social · 21/07/2026White men in leadership have shown no capacity to lead. Vote for women, particularly black women. No more labor without leadership. 000
Doc B @docbwell.bsky.social · 21/07/2026💯!! How fucking difficult is that? @govandybeshear.bsky.social The fact that you haven't done it yet is absurd. 001
disrupter1701.bsky.social @disrupter1701.bsky.social · 21/07/2026To all these who DEMAND to see proof of life of Senator McConnell, calm down. We will all know when he passes. If he dies before January 5, 2027, the Governor of KY appoints someone to replace him until then. The Senator is not running again, there is a primary and general election ahead. 000
WeeWeex5 @weeweex5.bsky.social · 21/07/2026Thank you!!! I thought Gov. Beshear would be a good vp but this waffling is not a good look. Show some fight and some initiative. Hells bells. The repubs would have already had the election or most likely just announced a replacement and screw the election. 250
LadyChiron @ladychiron.bsky.social · 21/07/2026Hey @govandybeshear this seems like a pretty simple plan. 000
Jfowashere💙🧢 @jfohatesmaga.bsky.social · 21/07/2026Fuck that. Call the election and see if he shows up. 000
notmine20172025 @notmine20172025.bsky.social · 21/07/2026No one will. They don’t want to rock the boat. 000
Part Of The Problem @partoftheproblem.bsky.social · 21/07/2026It’s not difficult. He isn’t doing this very simple thing because he does not want to. 000
Kevin Miller @leapfrog410.bsky.social · 21/07/2026The governor is allowing himself to be pushed around. 000
Lefty (Colin) Wright @leftywright.bsky.social · 21/07/2026It's better for Dems to play along The gop are one vote down in senate until at least Jan That stops the save act and protects the mid terms. If it comes out he's dead, it's on the GOP only for election fraud There is no downside for the Dems. 050
optivix.bsky.social @optivix.bsky.social · 21/07/2026Might as well demand that a pig fly. Andy will do nothing. He's not even bothering to come up with new excuses for not fighting 000
ljg1234.bsky.social @ljg1234.bsky.social · 21/07/2026And take some state troopers there to enforce it 000
JBlanchard @jbatnc.bsky.social · 21/07/2026Better...get a journalist to find out. Pay the facility pharmacist or cleaning staff. Hell, pay off the facility CEO because they're greedy. All cash. Quite a few people have to be in the loop on something like this. Beshear has his next political step in mind and can't step into the trap. 000
End this Nov 3rd 🔵 @thepointbeing.bsky.social · 21/07/2026Why do all that? just call the election and start the process make them prove he’s alive and a functional human! 000
Stand! Shout for Blue in 2026! 💙💙 @liberalhoundmom.bsky.social · 21/07/2026I’m sure he’s doing all he can but is being “hindered”! 000
Lorraine Miller @lorrainemiller7.bsky.social · 21/07/2026I'm quite sure at this point the taxpayers wouldn't mind paying the governor's air fare to DC to check it out. 000
Reefgirl ⭐🇬🇧🇺🇦 🏳️⚧️🏳️🌈 @reefgirl.bsky.social · 21/07/2026Call the election, they'll come scurrying out of the woodwork soon enough 000
Sheila @thedeplorables.bsky.social · 21/07/2026Man up for God’s sake. Shouldn’t that be his job as Governor? 000
