427: Bill Post

Sexual Harassment

Bill Post was an Oregon state representative and a rightwing radio host who always rushed to the extreme right, anti-gay, anti-abortion, anti-immigrant, anti-gun control, anti-woman, and definitely opposed to making work safe for women.

320: Michael Moates

Sexual Harassment, Solicitation of a Minor

Michael Moates is a right-wing blogger/journalist who founded D.C. Chronicle, a site that is now, appropriately, a porn site. He sometimes wrote for the Washington Examiner. He also ran for Congress, as a Libertarian, not a Republican. However, he describes himself as a life-long Republican in his most recent Twitter account. He keeps getting suspended.

He had to withdraw his candidacy when he got suspended for sexually harassing underage teens. Several women came forward with messages he sent them. I won’t reproduce them here because he sued or filed a DMCA on everyone. He lost all his suits and DMCA filings, but I don’t want the bother. You can read them in the articles.

He went on to suggest that sex between “younger boys” and older men could be a “coming-of-age relationship … in which those older men help those younger boys discover who they are”
