He’s a known conspiracy theorist who aggressively opposed federally required Real ID standards because of a paranoid, baseless claim that the plastic cards would be embedded with chips to track movements via GPS. He received national attention forthat falsely accused the TSA of using scanners to take naked pictures of travelers and their children.
