Being reported on several sites now including Amy Siskind that Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear is exploring the possibility of just notifying the McConnell staff and the Senate that he's going to start the process to replace Mitch because they haven't given him proof Mitch is actually alive.
Siskind says her contacts tell her Beshear wants to explore if he has the authority to do it or not and figures he'll just do what Trump does all the time, do it and wait for someone to tell him he can't.
