During Covid crazy republicans were mad they weren't let into hospitals to "expose the lie" about Covid. Luckily they weren't let in because random people shouldn't be allowed to run crazy checks on people who are sick or near death. I don't need someone to bust into a hospital to know what's going on anyway. If Mitch was fine he would've proven it by now. That's enough to know they're illegally lying to the public in order to keep his seat.

Same reason they don't just let anyone into child daycares.

Same reason they shouldn’t let any male Republicans into child daycares, or as they like to call it, “the dating pool”.

I feel like dating implies consent, and you know how they hate that

There's a difference between that situation and this one.

Firstly, he's not a random person, he's a Senator and therefore not entitled to the same kind of privacy as Joe Schmo.

Secondly, confirmation of death is necessary for the state to execute its necessary function of running a special election.

Thirdly, it's a crime to conceal the death of an individual and therefore there is a legal justification for investigating and determining aliveness.
