Rep. Ilhan Omar says she’s not convinced Senator Mitch McConnell is doing well despite the recent proof of life photo released by his office … questioning why we haven’t heard McConnell speak yet.
Our TMZ DC team caught up with the Congresswoman from Minnesota on Wednesday … and we asked about her the online theory that photo showing him a rehab facility with his wife is doctored.
Rep. Omar says it looks like A.I. to her … adding she has read some compelling arguments online which back up the claim — and she’s personally hung up on why we haven’t seen McConnel on video.
McConnell was unconscious when he rushed to the hospital — he said he hit his head during a fall — and Omar says that usually indicates a far more serious health issue.

All in all, Omar makes a soft argument for term limits … and she also has a hot take on Rep. Tom Kean Jr.‘s absence due to depression.
We’ll have to wait and see if McConnell releases more updates … because it sounds like at least one member of Congress ain’t buying what’s out there.
