This past weekend in Minneapolis was incredible!

When I saw how many events @HB4mayor had put together, I was concerned that we might be stretching things a bit thin.

My concerns turned out to be unfounded, because we were at max capacity for every event!
Nate and I traveled around Minneapolis meeting supporters and people who wanted to find out more about his campaign for Mayor, and our door-knocking went beautifully as well.

Volunteers knocked on hundreds of doors and spoke with residents across the city.

I was honored to be a part of it, and excited to see what Nate and @LPofMN have in store for the future.

Big shout outs to @Anthonywelti, @AmosJoe, Heather, and everyone else for all of their help this weekend.
See you this weekend at the IL State Convention, @LPIllinois!
Check out this video from @kowalamedia where @HB4mayor and I talk about his campaign:

This man's name is Marvin Guy.

He has been in jail for 7 years, without trial, facing the death penalty, because he allegedly killed one of the home invaders who broke into his home and opened fire on him.

Why?

Because those home invaders were cops.
Killeen TX police surveilled Marvin's home for some time, based on an informant tip that he was selling drugs. Unable to prove anything, they decided to conduct a no-knock raid. The judge gave them a warrant in 5 minutes.
At 5:30 in the morning on May 9, 2014, police broke into Marvin's home.

Days earlier, a home invasion of a woman's home, which resulted in her being seriously injured, had shocked Marvin and his neighbors.

Earlier today, I spoke to the Russell City Council about their plan to use eminent domain to seize and demolish a privately-owned convalescent home to build a parking lot.

It's from a live stream so forgive the quality.

I sincerely hope they rethink their actions and stop trying to kick 28 elderly, mentally disabled people out of their home.

If they choose to proceed, we're just getting started.

2977 people lost their lives on 9/11.

When we hear of deaths in the thousands, it's easy to look at them as numbers, even though we know that each of them had lives, family and loved ones they left behind.

Each one has a story.

I'd like to tell you the story of John W Perry.
John was born with a severe learning disability. He was 9 before he could tie his shoes or read. But he discovered a passion for learning, and helping others, that would last his entire life.

John learned French, Russian, Spanish & Swedish, and graduated from NYU School of Law.
As an attorney, John helped immigrants and asylum-seekers navigate through the ridiculous system so they could remain here.

An active member of @LPQueens and a board member of the @NYCLU, John fought for the rights and freedoms of others.

Then he did something unexpected.

The War on Drugs has created and empowered drug cartels.

The War on Terror has created and empowered terror groups.

The War on Poverty has made poverty permanent for tens of millions of Americans.

Government would totally succeed in the War on Abortion though.
Abortion is a gruesome practice. There are good ways to greatly reduce the number of them.

Government is the absolute last group I want involved, especially since most abortions are done for economic reasons, and government is most to blame for creating those economic problems.
Think of how the War on Drugs, through the creation of black markets, has made the drug problem much worse, and has created gang violence and daily infringements on our rights in the process.

Now apply that to abortion.

I can feel it coming in the air of the night.

This weekend, I will be back in FLORIDA for an action-packed 3 days of fun to support some incredible Libertarian candidates and causes, and you're invited!
It all starts Friday night in Tamarac with a dinner with me and @terMaatMike. We'll also have @MarthaBueno18 @DennisMisigoy there as well!

REGISTER HERE: miketermaat2022.com/dinner
Then on Saturday morning, join me and Mike in Fort Lauderdale for an airboat tour of the Everglades!

Anyone who remembers the @LPNational convention last year knows the kind of fun that can happen when Libertarians get around alligators.

The attacks on civilians and retreating troops in Kabul were unconscionable. The victims were real people with real lives, whose loved ones will miss them. Whomever is responsible for their deaths needs to pay, dearly.

And we need to talk about who that may be.
A couple weeks back, I remember cynically thinking to myself "just watch, ISIS or some other group is going to come out of nowhere and do a terror attack in Afghanistan, and the neocons will use it to push for more war."

Lo and behold.
IS-K is at war with the Taliban, and it's very possible that they used this moment of vulnerability to attack the US and instigate a US response that would bolster ISIS recruitment and hurt the Taliban's newly-formed government.
