After addressing the media for about a minute during his weekly press briefing, Senate Minority Leaders Mitch McConnell suddenly stopped talking and stood motionless at the podium before colleagues directed him to the side, helping him stand as he shuffled his feet. The 81-year-old McConnell was hospitalized in March for a concussion after falling at a fundraising dinner at a DC hotel.
UPDATE 2:20 p.m. ET: McConnell slowly walked to the podium after his episode saying “I’m fine” when asked about his apparent seizure at the start of the press briefing. MSNBC reports that McConnell had taken a break in his office before returning to the briefing.
