Yes, and if you move the capitol all of that moves with it. You literally admitted that those headquarters are located for the purpose of in-person meetings, not a love of DC. So unless the location you intend to move the capitol to is top

What does that even mean? The study refers to the type of bots I was talking about, the same as I suspect that comment's GP is talking about. If there's an extra special variety of astroturfing bots that don't exist, that&#x2
