Senate Candidate Rages About “Stolen Valor” Questions

“The smear artists @washingtonpost are writing yet another hit piece attacking me for serving my country—even asking questions about my medical history and demanding my personal records. I’m done playing the liberal media’s game—here’s how DC ‘reporters’ treat veterans.

“And get this—after sending my campaign a 1000+ word email trying to discredit every aspect of my service, then they only give you 24 hours to respond. It’s a joke. Everyone knows they would NEVER question a decorated combat veteran if they were a Democrat.

“I was PROUD to serve with so many brave men and women who put their lives on the line for our country. @jontester and Chuck Schumer should immediately denounce these disgusting attacks & @isaacstanbecker should look forward to getting to know my lawyers.

“The press is even raising questions about my Purple Heart and Bronze Star with Valor. I was there when we were under fire from the enemy, and I led the rescue operations in total disregard for my own safety because it was the right thing to do. I was there for the IED blast.

“Now the @washingtonpost is trying to twist it into ‘stolen valor!?'” – Montana US Senate candidate Tim Sheehy, in a raging series of comments posted to Twitter.

Last week Sheehy told the Washington Post that he had lied to a park ranger about an accidental gun discharge, one of several allegedly conflicting stories that the Post claims he has told.

A trauma surgeon tells the Post that an X-ray provided by Sheehy shows an apparent wound from a handgun, not a military weapon. The park ranger says Sheehy showed him a handgun with a missing bullet.  

As you can see, Sheehy is siccing the cult on reporters.
