Arizona Attorney General Mark Brnovich (R) on Friday tweeted a context-free video of him whirling nunchakus on a rooftop somewhere.

“We’ve gotten a lot of calls, a lot of emails,” Brnovich says at the beginning of the 20-second video without elaborating. “But there’s one thing people definitely want to see: They want to see more ‘chuks.”

The Arizona official proceeds to whip out the nunchakus tucked behind him and swing them around.

“People, you want more ‘chuks?” he asks with his nunchakus flying about. “I’ll bring ‘chuks.”

Is this supposed to show he is a law-and-order badass ? Just crazy. Gosh, what a surprise he is REPUBLICAN.

1. 15 year old boys did this in the late 70's to be cool. How embarrassing for him. nt

8. For his next video, he will be playing the first 7 chords of Smoke on the Water

Over and over.

10. That got a hearty and loud laugh.

Those also go with Goody combs in the back pocket and obsession with Kiss and Black Sabbath.

2. The GOP is the Party of Stunts. It is all they have.

3. Ducey signed a bill that legalized Nunchucks in 2019

They got banned in the 70s because of Bruce Lee or some craziness. Of course Republicans made a big deal about second amendment and white Republicans with little dicks everywhere in AZ rejoiced.

This is my guess as to why he did this:

Peter Thiel's PAC has been running ads trashing Brnovich and promoting his candidate who is running on a platform of Trump is great, build the wall and all our problems are because of immigrants. My guess is it's hurting Brnovich's poll numbers for the upcoming Senate primary. I can't remember the candidate's name but he comes across as a real macho type guy.

Again f*** Brnovich.

15. Same with Texas. No longer illegal in 2019.

Nunchucks are still illegal in numerous countries.

They had nunchucks in son's taekwondo classes, but I think they were foam or a prop. They were illegal to carry on the street etc


They're in the same category as clubs and chinese stars etc.

4. Take this video, put it in an ad and run it with goofy music.

5. I have seen this video before, not recently. Is this old

or has he done more than one of these videos, or can there be more politicians doing this?

[Bev54]

6. Here is the story back in 2019

I think he must release this video every year or more often, there was one from Jan of this year as well.
