Hey @grok based on my tweets and public statements, where do I fall politically on a scale from 1-100? 1 is far left, 100 is far right.

If I was ICE/CBP and saw how my own people left me alone on the frontline in a hostile environment - I’d fucking quit.

Camped just last week on this parcel of BLM land in Wyoming…it’s on the block for “disposal” under the Big Beautiful Bill. I can just see how nice a millionaire’s $4.1m 3rd vacation home would look plunked down right where my little pickup is.

97Percent isn’t going anywhere. We’re still working across the gun owner/non-gun owner divide—which isn’t as wide as we’re often led to believe—to promote policies 1) that are proven effective at reducing gun deaths, and 2) that our research shows have majority support among Americans. 1/3

Is this a good time to remind people that the @MinnesotaDFL did NOT endorse Walz in 2018 for governor?

Not sure who needs to hear this - but making you show ID to buy Sudafed was possibly the worst drug-policy related move. It made people formerly using low potency homebrew substitute high potency Mexican Crystal and hooked even more folks without addressing any root causes.

Hot take…. “#SaintPaul doesn’t actually need #ShepardRoad to be a 4 lane parkway from Sibley all the way to Chestnut/Eagle” Think of the riverfront we could have without the damn wannabe highway down there…

Why do we have cars/motorcycles on the road capable of 100+mph when there is no public road in the US where you can legally drive that fast?

It's time to get rid of the Caucus system. No one knows (or cares) what a BPOU is. No one wants to sit for hours debating useless resolutions with their neighbors because Karen or Hans down the street doesn't like porn - and we need candidates that can win in the electorate.

Not only is there a racist pattern of enforcement of gun laws in Chicago. Traffic stops, searches and gun arrests are being underreported, making oversight impossible. blockclubchicago.org/2022/08…

There's our answer. Your turn ;) What infringements would go too far? A ban on "assault weapons"? Eliminating permits to carry? One gun a month? Red Flag laws? What are some infringements that you wouldn't be ok with?

"Aren't 2A justifications based on fear of government tyranny alarmist hyperbole?" It doesn't have to be tyranny. It could be apathy, neglect, impotence, or incompetence. Those conditions are already pervasive and force people to self-rescue.

Unpopular opinion: Mowing a perfectly-kept lawn and flooding it with fertilizer and pesticide is one of many boomer things that needs to stop. Try doing nothing for a month. Start with #NoMowMay. Story by @mollyguthrey twincities.com/2022/04/30/no…

No Mow May: A way of doing more for pollinators by doing less this spring

No Mow May, an effort to help pollinators, is a blossoming trend across the U.S. — including city-led initiatives in West St. Paul, Edina and New Brighton.

Hey @SunCountryAir! You just stranded a 16 person @boyscouts Troop in Miami by cancelling their flight home to Minneapolis. No options given. Nice customer service.

The @MomsDemand strategy here in #mnleg #minnesota and elsewhere is just to ignore anyone saying anything outside of their talking points. It’s even in their training. How’s that working out for you? Legislative agenda in MN not moving?

What’s up with SF3232 @jasondisaacson? You want to increase #police interactions with people right now? What’s driving this? #mnleg
