Senator Helps Eject Anti-War Protester at Capitol Hearing
At a Senate Armed Services Subcommittee hearing on military readiness, a Marine veteran running as a Green Party candidate interrupted to condemn U.S. and Israel’s war with Iran. Republican Sen. Tim Sheehy joined Capitol Police in lifting and ejecting the protester from the room; authorities say the man assaulted officers and faces multiple charges, while the protester and allies allege he was injured and that protests are not allowed inside congressional buildings.
