Donna Andrews @yarngirl716.bsky.social · 06/08/2026Stop writing this as truth…did you see him? Did he speak to anyone? A statement means nothing, and this is terrible reporting. 3412
Chris C @chris-c-c.bsky.social · 06/08/2026He is likely alive but at end stage dementia. He's likely doing hospice at home. 010
Decent Wordsmith @hmodell.bsky.social · 06/08/2026A photo from 3 months ago is hardly convincing. 0260
Kiki H @kix61.bsky.social · 06/08/2026"McConnell, seen here in May..." There - fixed it for you. 0242
LizzyRolfe @lizzyrolfe.bsky.social · 06/08/2026Do some journalism... don't take their word... they lie. 040
Peter Collinson @petercollinson.bsky.social · 06/08/2026Of course Axios of evil runs a photo of Mitch taken May 19. Par for the course... 030
indiemms.bsky.social @indiemms.bsky.social · 06/08/2026What a misleading article; using a photo from May! When he does a a live, broadcast interview with you I will give you credit 010
Andrew M. | Founder & Advisor 🇬🇷 🇺🇸 @andrewmfounder.bsky.social · 06/08/2026There's no evidence that he's alive. 040
All You Need is Love @wade-k.bsky.social · 06/08/2026Is this a comedy routine? It would have been good to see a picture of him being wheeled out of the hospital like that. Or, maybe he's dead or on life support. 010
2112Cygnus @2112cygnus.bsky.social · 06/08/2026How bad do you have to be at your job to post a picture from almost 3 months ago as if it's new? Axios bad, apparently. 010
Your Auntie Grizelda @auntie-grizelda.bsky.social · 06/08/2026WHY would Axios post this with such a prominent, and misleading, photo? The TINY photo caption at the article makes it clear this photo was from May. Oh, right, I forgot for a second. Axios is garbage. 010
The Ginger Ninja @thegingerninja.bsky.social · 06/08/2026Somehow with no photos or videos. Weird how there's no proof he's healthy. But it was nice of you guys to include an old photo that will mislead folks if they don't read the caption. 0140
fille13.bsky.social @fille13.bsky.social · 07/08/2026The longer Moscow Mitch stays out of the Senate, the better. 000
Little Fury Fellah @elnosnusk.bsky.social · 06/08/2026You know showing a picture of him *from May* might be misleading your readers. Do you have anything more recent? 100
michael spins @michaelspins.bsky.social · 06/08/2026and what verification do have besides his own press release? Seems like a real news org, as you claim to be, would be doing a little more to get to the bottom of it. 020

I have become trapped in Barbados and if you send me $2,000 I will be able to return home and lavish your reporters with many many fine gifts that will make them fabulously wealthy. Dm me for payment. 010
Rafaella @rafaellawednesday.bsky.social · 06/08/2026his "return" isnt unclear, his existence is! What about this whole thing makes you buy in to such nonsense from "McConnell". It's obviously some underhanded shiite statement from his minions; carrots cant make statements. Video conference him in if he is alive, coherent, and capable. 000
Refugee from a red state. @oklahomacowboy.bsky.social · 06/08/2026Is there any proof that he’s actually alive, or are we just repeating press releases? 030
Leo @donpoldorod.bsky.social · 06/08/2026For all that we know he might as well been discharged to hospice care. Amazing how many days off work a senator can get without losing health benefits or pay, one thinks everyone should have access to these benefits. 120
River Haley, Cachorrín de Los Andes @andeanpuppy.latinsky.app · 06/08/2026Photo from May. Slow news day? 010
StiffSticks Steve @slappyshalom.bsky.social · 06/08/2026Using a photo dated May 19. Axios so deep up Trumps dirty ass it's funny 000
PacifiCali 🟦🟧🇺🇦🇨🇦🇲🇽🇺🇸 @paccali68.bsky.social · 06/08/2026Dear @axios.com , everyone knows this photo is from May of this year Stop insinuating that this is Mitch McConnell today 030
Al @animalzoo.bsky.social · 06/08/2026Has Mitch himself, mumbled a single word? Let’s hear him speak. Looks less than coherent to me. 030
stevehartzler.bsky.social @stevehartzler.bsky.social · 06/08/2026His office saying he said something isn't the same as him actually saying it. 050

Irishwhisky24 🇮🇪🇺🇸 @irishwhisky24.bsky.social · 06/08/2026His family/office *claims* he's been discharged, unless you've actually spoken to or seen him yourself. You're supposed to be journalists, not stenographers. 160
Julia Is Waving, Not Drowning @booktweeting.bsky.social · 06/08/2026why did you use an old photo of McConnell? 050
JoeyBagofDonuts @adamwest.bsky.social · 06/08/2026Why use a picture from months ago and report a statement from his office as fact 020
