Just a theory, but if this wasn't Tim Sheehy but rather Rasheed T'eem, dreadlocks and all, and the ranger came upon him, I suspect the spent cartridge makes it into the report. The difference might rhyme with "Bite Bivilege".
I don't know which is more disgusting, that Sheehy made up the story about being wounded in Afghanistan for Stolen Valor" or he made up the story because the idea of a military Vet unable to handle a gun safely would reflect poorly on his bid to be elected.
I loved living in Montana twenty-some years ago; I don't know why the people there went over the deep fucking edge. I could understand them feeling that they were frontier, but why the hell they bought into these rich out-of-state fuckers who acted like big dick swingers...it defies logic.
"He said he’d actually made up the story to cover up a bullet wound he received in Afghanistan in 2012. He wasn’t sure whether he was hit by the enemy or by friendly fire, but didn’t report the incident to his superiors at the time because he worried it would implicate his platoon members in a possible friendly fire incident he considered no big deal."
How did he receive the "Purple Heart" if it wan't reported to his immediate command?
more likely he didn't want to be identified as a former Navy SEAL who was so irresponsible with a loaded firearm that he dropped it and shot himself like a common, not-special, idiot. "There goes your bid for the Senate" as they say.
I wish news outlets wouldn’t publish statements from the spokesgoons that don’t actually address the story or issue at hand. It just amplifies the propoganda and can influence the gullible.
Bad idea? Fit 5" rollator or similar swiveling wheels in place of non-swiveling 4" stock casters on regular walker? I'm assuming a tradeoff in stability vs. maneuverability.
The problem with your plan is that, while a rollator has brakes to keep it from moving when you want it to stay, the walker has no brakes. Sloping ground or just plain out-of-plumb flooring can be a problem.
Do you need a rollator? I keep a supply of disability equipment for use by the residents of the Elderly Ghetto where I live. I could ship you a rollator as I have several.
No, I have several myself. Kinda thinking of something between the walker and rollator, with the rear skis acting as friction brakes, as they do now. Do you have a suggestion for padding the grips on a walker that have gotten pretty hard?
Sounds doable. I have one of each, plus canes, walking sticks and crutches as necessary. They all want me dead, I think. The answer is a motorized bar stool.
In 1994 when Skepti and I got married, her daughters asked if they could call me Dad. Today, I was informed that my grand daughter asked my SIL if she could call him "Dad." Family is family.
Data suggests canvassers linked to Elon Musk’s America Pac falsely claimed to have visited homes of potential voters. . . leaked America Pac data obtained by the Guardian shows that roughly 24% of the door-knocks in Arizona and 25% of the door-knocks in Nevada this week were flagged under “unusual survey logs” by the Campaign Sidekick canvassing app.
The unusual activity logs, for instance, showed a canvasser who was marked by GPS as sitting at a Guayo’s On the Trail restaurant half a mile away from the doors he was supposedly hitting in Globe, Arizona. Another canvasser was recorded marking voters as “not home” two blocks away from that apartment.
The Trump campaign took a gamble this cycle when it outsourced the bulk of its ground game to political action committees, after the Federal Election Commission earlier this year for the first time allowed campaigns to coordinate its voter turnout efforts with outside groups.
Part of the problem with paid canvassing, in general, is that canvassing vendors are disincentivized to fire canvassers the more doors they hit because the vendors are paid by the door. If the doors are not hit, the vendor owes money back to the client or owes that many “free” doors.
For America Pac, there is further disincentive for vendors to fire canvassers who might only be frauding one door out of every 10 – effectively someone who just cuts corners – because the labor supply of canvassers is diminished this late in the cycle and hiring a replacement is increasingly difficult, two people familiar with the situation said.
It's not grift if you do real work to earn money ... so these doorknockers (if they even exist) are just following their Dear Leader's footsteps. By not producing any actual footsteps of their own, or something.
" Elon Musk is dramatically ratcheting up his attempt to use his money to help Trump win Pennsylvania. In an appearance in Harrisburg, Pa., on Saturday, Musk, the world’s richest person, said that each day through Election Day he would be “randomly” awarding $1 million to some people who sign his super PAC’s conservative petition. Musk has previously said that his super PAC would pay $100 to every signer in the state. "
Do we still deport naturalized citizens who are a menace?
You get a COMPLETE discharge physical when you rotate out of the service. That's to insure you are healthy enough to re-enter the civilian workforce from whence you came. ANY wound would be noticed and documented. (and I know these glory hounds.....they want that purple heart citation on their records) They ALL process disability claims the day after they leave active duty.....trust me on this. I was in a horrific vehicle accident 10 days before I was going to process out of the USAF in Germany in December of 1976. They didn't just dump my sorry ass on the street and say 'good luck'. My enlistment was extended 30 days at a time for 3 months until I was deemed fit enough to leave. Fuck this lying POS.....
But but but, how could he run for Senate if he was known as the former Navy SEAL who clumsily dropped his loaded firearm and shot himself? That's SO not macho.

Sheehy's account is unKimPeachable.

And the sound of MAGAts caring about reality?
**chirp chirp**

Wow this guy is a really bad liar! You would think being wealthy and in politics he'd be better at it, but nope.
Jeezuuz man, just tell the truth. Then you don't have to keep changing your story to march up with the facts.
so. many. scumbags.
Make America Moral Again(?)
why is it that they can't keep their stories straight? he makes it worse with all the lying and the stupid shit
I know it's Montana, but is there any way this story could change the trajectory of this race?

User name has never been more applicable to the content of a political story...

Who said money can't buy votes (or can it?)
From NYTimes (10/19/24) by Theodore Schliefer:
" Elon Musk is dramatically ratcheting up his attempt to use his money to help Trump win Pennsylvania. In an appearance in Harrisburg, Pa., on Saturday, Musk, the world’s richest person, said that each day through Election Day he would be “randomly” awarding $1 million to some people who sign his super PAC’s conservative petition.

Well, I don't see a problem.
They are only going to drop boxes to stuff them with fake votes for Trump.
What a shame that the FEC loosened rules in a way that encouraged MAGA to fuck itself.
Like attracts like.
FElon is the world's greatest scammer and the grifting remoras are looking for the biggest shark they can find.
Scammers all the way down.
