Katie Porter has been too, but has been rather mean to her staff (though not a sexual abuser)
Lots of choices, and really important that Democrats figure out how to at least somewhat consolidate so that we don’t end up with an R vs R general election.
The military has long had some of it at particular facilities — the Air Force academy is notorious. But it’s long been illegal, and was quite rare outside the military.
He’s got a whole staff to create this stuff, but I expect staff would have noticed the demon at the top center, so I figure he actually prompted “trump as healer” or something.

They have minorites in both houses of Congress. Can’t actually stop anything under those conditions
Problem is that when you disperse research teams, it takes a decade or more to get back to where you were
It just takes getting them out of power. That’s attainable
It doesn’t have to be that way; we could have a world where people don’t need to fight over energy resources because wind and sunshine are everywhere.
In a close election, tipping a few tens of thousands of votes in the right state could in fact alter the outcome. So they’d target the closest swing state, and pick precincts with large minority populations.
The problem is that just standing around is going to intimidate a bunch of US citizens who have dark skin
The reality of a first-past-the-post system is that it is far easier to co-opt an existing party than to launch a new one. The latter approach usually means handing power to the people you dislike the most
