I’ve lived here and there (six different coastal states), most recently three decades in Boston area. Academic and work background in computer science and biology.

New York Times reader Dos Passos comments on the article: "You will now see huge amounts of dark money flow to these militias. They will become the private army of the mega-wealthy. The Gilded Age had the Pinkertons to threaten, assault, intimidate and murder anybody that supported working families. Trump's owners will have the militias, probably commanded by somebody like Erik Prince. These are dark days ahead, all because the mega-wealthy sense they can seize complete control of the things they fear most: government, the poor, the hungry, the desperate. And all of it made possible by Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito, and the pipsqueaks they helped bring onto the Supreme Court. Very dark days ahead."
