For Andrea Ramsey, the president of a nonprofit children’s health clinic in Kansas City, Kan., it was in May when her local congressman voted to repeal the Affordable Care Act.

Democrats are the overwhelming beneficiaries of the surge in women’s activism, and even hope it could lead to retaking the House if candidates like Ms. Tran and Ms. Ramsey prevail over incumbent Republicans.

Ms. Ramsey, who oversaw the children’s health clinic after careers as a lawyer and business executive, said she would happily be working there today if Mrs. Clinton had been elected president. But Mr. Trump’s victory emboldened Republicans like Representative Kevin Yoder of Kansas to push to repeal the Affordable Care Act.

“I was not going to abide that vote,” Ms. Ramsey said. “It crystallized my decision to step up and run.”

She has raised nearly $450,000 so far, she said, and will have to win a primary in August to face Mr. Yoder. But the results from Virginia “put some wind beneath our wings,” she said.

“Women are stepping up and winning,” she added, “and I would say that injected a dose of additional enthusiasm into our campaign.”

She was featured in a NYT article a couple weeks ago about women who were so morally outraged about Trump they were going to run for office and change the world.

In the EEOC complaint, which alleged sex discrimination and retaliation by LabOne, Funkhouser accused Ramsey of subjecting him to “unwelcome and inappropriate sexual comments and innuendos” beginning in September 2004, when he was a LabOne human resources manager.

In late March 2005, Ramsey made sexual advances toward him on a business trip, Funkhouser alleged in the complaint.

“After I told her I was not interested in having a sexual relationship with her, she stopped talking to me,” he wrote. “In the office she completely ignored me and avoided having any contact with me.”

Ramsey even moved him out of his office into a cubicle far from her office, Funkhouser wrote.

Before he rejected her advances, Ramsey “repeatedly told me she heard great things from others about my performance,” Funkhouser wrote. “After I rejected her, she told me she now was hearing bad things about my performance and on June 13, 2005, terminated my employment.”

The EEOC closed its file on Funkhouser’s charges of discrimination and retaliation in October 2005, noting that an investigation was unable to conclude whether any statutes had been violated. The document did not certify that LabOne was in compliance with employment law, however, and informed Funkhouser that he had a right to sue the company.

Funkhouser then sued LabOne in federal court.

Apparently just hearing about it wasn't enough for her.

Can Funkhouser join the #MeToo movement?

The only question now is what to do with the several hundred Hillary Clinton-branded strap-ons that ol' Andrea was planning to give out at her victory party.

They can't just throw them away. These are quality goods- Snap-On strap-ons with the patented quick change dong feature.
