Given his views, it never should have been that close.

No, Pennsylvania is not.
The problem is that the state is gerrymandered to hell and the areas outside the Philly/Pittsburgh area are generally pretty conservative.
So while by population is the state is purple leaning blue, the packing and cracking of districts distorts the power balance in the state legislature.
And the conservative politicians in PA are awful.
Doug Mastriano put up a competitive race (ish) against Josh Shapiro for governor, and Mastriano not only looks like a scrotum in a suit but has some of the most reprehensible views on the world and the people in it I've ever encountered.
Once you get outside the cities and the more affluent burbs, I've seen more confederate flags than I ever saw living in North Carolina. They're a loud minority, but the loud part matters. The selfish entitlement is off the charts even as the world rightfully leaves their deadbeat asses behind.

The new Polyphia album that just came out is 39 minutes long.
It's got a bunch of really solid tracks, and even the "filler" is there to make the album work better as an album rather than a collection of singles.
Honestly, I'm super impressed.
And it's probably a bit of a departure from a lot of the other (really good!) suggestions so far.

The rich do not go to jail... unless they fuck with other rich peoples' money.
SBF did that in spades.
And left a paper trail.
Dude's goose is cooked.
