I suspect he's in the pockets of a pro-Martian lobbiest group that's trying to undermine humanity's attempts to claim Mars for our own. He even tried pushing a ban on funding a mission to Mars before NASA was considering one. Something's fishy there. We can't let this agent of Martians stop humanity for claiming what's rightfully ours, martian space oil.
