Brian McGinnis revealed his plans after release from the hospital with broken arm.
The US Marine Corps veteran who was detained following his protest in the Senate hearing broke social media silence after hospital release.
Taking to Instagram, the Green Party candidate for 2026 Senate election shared a picture with his supporters who gathered outside the hospital to receive him and vowed to continue his fight for peace.
The 44-year-old wrote, “After serving, I’ve seen the cost of war up close. Now I focus on standing with real people, listening, learning, and fighting for what matters most: community, justice, and peace.”
“I’ve walked through fire, fought battles, and faced challenges I never expected. But nothing teaches you more about humanity than fighting for real people’s lives!” he added.
His post earned widespread support from his followers all around the world in the comments section.
A user wrote, “Thanks Hero, they can broke your arm but they can't broke your heart for the truth.”
“Thank you for standing up for America,” another commented.
Third one expressed, “So proud to have been able to be there, and stand by you. We will be there for your next court hearing. You have a community in DC who’s got your back.”
The former Marine was injured on Wednesday, March 4, in a struggle with US Capitol Police and Republican Senator Tim Sheehy during a Senate Armed Services subcommittee hearing.
McGinnis was then dragged out of the hearing. In the videos shared on social media McGinnis, who was dressed in a military uniform, could be seen pinning his hand behind the open door, resulting in broken arm.
