• On March 4, 2026, Brian McGinnis, a Marine veteran, interrupted a Senate Armed Services hearing on Capitol Hill.
• He was protesting U.S. military action tied to Israel and Iran and shouted statements such as “No one wants to fight for Israel.”
• Capitol Police attempted to remove him from the hearing room because demonstrations aren’t allowed inside congressional hearings.
• Tim Sheehy, a former Navy SEAL, helped officers physically remove him during the struggle because of his action veteran’s arm/hand was broke .

• A cracking sound was heard, and he sustained a broken bone in his arm or wrist.

Aftermath:

• McGinnis was treated for the injury and arrested, facing charges including assault on officers, resisting arrest, and unlawful demonstration.
