80-year-old Democrat Senator Patrick Leahy (VT) was taken to the hospital on Tuesday evening after presiding over the opening of the sham impeachment trial against Donald Trump.
Leahy, the Senate President Pro Tempore, is the longest serving Senator of the Majority party and is presiding over the sham impeachment trial since Chief Justice John Roberts opted out.
Tuesday evening Leahy was taken from his Capitol office to the hospital after he wasn’t feeling well.
Leahy spox said: “This evening, Senator Leahy was in his Capitol office and was not feeling well. He was examined in the Capitol by the Attending Physician. Out of an abundance of caution, the Attending Physician recommended that he be taken to a local hospital.”
