'GOP senator claims he was 'de-escalating' as video catches him injuring anti-war Marine' [View all]
https://www.rawstory.com/tim-sheehy-2675555269/My words: Video included
'A Senate Republican claimed he was attempting to "de-escalate" after video emerged of him helping police forcefully remove an anti-war Marine during a mid-hearing scuffle, leading to audible gasps as the man appeared to be injured.
Bystanders accused Sen. Tim Sheehy (R-MT) of breaking the hand of Marine veteran and anti-war activist Brian McGinnis during a break in a Senate Armed Services Committee hearing on Wednesday. McGinnis put his hand in a doorway to prevent Capitol Police from removing him from the room.'
