In early 2020, he saw signs that loss of freedom over covid mandates could be worse than the virus and began to speak out at his airline employer, which forced him to retire because he refused to wear a facemask as part of his uniform. He continued to speak out about the dangers of masking and vaccine mandates at school board meetings and county commissioner meetings in various central Florida counties. Many of these were videoed, so he posted them on social media, some of which became very popular. He publishes at RUMBLE and SUBSTACK.
