Summary
Independent Journalist and Capitol Hill Correspondent Desiree Townsend has done an incredible job covering what national media outlets have not - Senator Mitch McConnell's near month-long hospital stay and illness. She was the first to report the audio of the 911 call. Desiree not only holds members of Congress accountable with face-to-face questions, she holds the news media accountable for not asking those same questions.
