Mitch McConnell tripped and hit the ground hard while walking through the Russell Senate Office Building basement … and the tumble was caught on video.
The 83-year-old Republican Senator from Kentucky — who has served in Congress for more than 40 years — was listening to a question about ICE when he fell to the ground … slamming hard against the unforgiving stone.

Mitch has had his fair share of health concerns in the past … including abruptly freezing in front of the camera multiple times like he did in this video from July 2023.
He also fell at a D.C. hotel in 2023, suffering a concussion and fractured rib.
McConnell was the longest-serving party leader in Senate history. He stepped down from his leadership role in 2025 and cited age as a factor.
As for Thursday’s fall, we don’t know if he was injured, although he was helped up and kept walking.
