US Senator John McCain, who was diagnosed last year with an aggressive form of brain cancer, has taken a diminished role in Congress in recent months.
US Senator John McCain, who is battling brain cancer, was in stable condition Monday after undergoing surgery to treat an infection, an aide said, adding that Senate colleagues have made frequent visits to see him.
"On Sunday, Senator McCain was admitted to Mayo Clinic in Phoenix, Arizona, and underwent surgery to treat an intestinal infection related to diverticulitis," spokeswoman Julie Tarallo said.
McCain, 81, was diagnosed last year with an aggressive type of cancer, glioblastoma, after a brain tumor was discovered by doctors.
It has led to a reduced role in Congress for the veteran lawmaker, who was the Republican presidential nominee in 2008 and currently chairs the powerful Senate Armed Services Committee.

And he's done it again above - blasting the Washington elite's obsession with their McCarthyite inquisition in search of a crime Donald Trump or his associates might have committed in "collusion" with Russia.
At the same time, they're aggressively pushing the USA into direct armed conflict with the world's only other nuclear superpower over Syria - a country with jack squat to do with US national security.
