New video captures Sheehy’s inability to explain his vulnerabilities
Helena, MT – Tim Sheehy’s brutal NBC Montana interview put the spotlight on his many lies and inconsistencies about who he is and what he believes. In a new video, using Sheehy’s own words, the Montana Democratic Party highlights Sheehy’s evasive answers in the first on-camera interview he gave to a Montana media outlet.
In the interview, Sheehy refused to provide clear answers about his inconsistencies around his military service and a gunshot wound he received, his current staffer's support for neo-Nazi social media posts, and his struggling taxpayer-funded business.
KEY MOMENTS FROM THE INTERVIEW:
Sheehy retold his lie about how he received his gunshot wound – and still refused to provide his medical records, which would offer the truth about his gunshot wound.
Sheehy repeatedly attacked the press:
He claimed that the Montana Free Press and the Daily Beast are “not news organizations.”
He said that only “one media outlet” covered his gunshot wound, despite dozens of outlets reporting on his lies.
He insisted that the “Montana media [...] turned against us” by covering his taxpayer-funded business’s challenges that could create a massive conflict of interest if he is elected.
When asked about the bipartisan national security bill that Steve Daines supported, Sheehy said “no,” and that he did not support the funding package.
The national security bill provided essential military assistance for Ukraine, Taiwan, and Israel.
Daines said the bill “provides critical, lethal aid to Israel as they defend themselves from terrorists,” while Sheehy said the funding “will end up in the hands of Hamas and Hezbollah.”
