Despite Sen. Mitch McConnell’s health update and photograph showing him to be alive and well, conspiracy theorists continue to push baseless claims that the image of the 84-year-old sitting upright in bed is AI-generated.
Laura Loomer, a MAGA conspiracy theorist who has the ear of President Donald Trump, said that McConnell’s update was “bulls***” and outlined why she believed the photo was AI-generated. Last week she said that a “high-level source close to the White House” told her that McConnell was “brain dead” and “not coming back.”
