## Resource

Nobody has seen Mitch McConnell in weeks. He's reportedly hospitalized, senators are claiming conversations with him, but Washington is starting to look like a reboot of "Weekend at Bernie's." On today's edition of "Dead Air," brought to you by the Save America Movement, Steve Schmidt and Dean Blundell sic the bloodhounds on the senator from Kentucky, just like he would do. They also wade into the Dems' Graham Platner mess in Maine, Trump's latest chaos, and react to the horrific murder of a Houston father at the hands of ICE.
