A recent, high-level hire at the Department of Energy's Office of Nuclear Energy is a drag queen, LGBTQ+ activist who has "lectured" on kink at college campuses and participated in interviews about fetish roleplay. In one interview, Sam Brinton – now a top Biden official – even discusses having sex with animals.

Brinton – who has written in opposition to "gay conversion therapy" – was recently tapped to serve as the Deputy Assistant Secretary of Spent Fuel and Waste Disposition in the Office of Nuclear Energy for the Department of Energy. He also goes by "Sister Ray Dee O'Active" – his drag queen alter ego.
