Ventura dedicated “63 Documents the Government Doesn’t Want You to Read,” his latest book, to Paul and believes the Texas congressman is “the only federal elected official who will stand up for America on the congressional floor.”Via Allahpundit, Ventura stops by the Howard Stern show today to explain that the United States government is controlling the weather and might have been behind the 2004 tsunami.

Excerpt:
"I'm not a politician, I'm a statesman," he told The Midwest Wine Connection. "I do one term, and then I go back to the private sector. If I get back into the fray again this year, it's only because I've been gone five years back to the private sector. That's what I did when I was mayor. That's a statesman. That's not a career politician."

While the club may have been involved in some criminal activity Ventura avoided any problems with the authorities.[11][12][13]
In the fall of 1974, Ventura left the bike club to return to Minnesota. Shortly after leaving, the Mongols entered into open warfare with their rivals the Hells Angels.[11]
