In a recent interview, Grassley explained why his tweets frequently contain typos and creative punctuation:

I suppose a lot has to do with the automatic correcting done by my iPhone. Second, I love Tweeting, but I don’t like to type. So, I probably type and hit send a little too quickly.

Don’t ever change, Senator.
