Hello and welcome. It is Eric Erickson here. The Eric Erickson show across the nation, the phone number 877973-725, if you would like to be a part of the program.

Look, there are all sorts of ways, I suspect, to handle all of the various storylines that are shaping up around

the FBI going into Mar-a-Lago, Scott Perry's personal cell phone being taken. Now, some

various Pennsylvania legislators are being looked at by the FBI.

There's clearly something happening, and it clearly relates to the riots of January 6th.

There's concern in Trump world that someone around the president has a wire.

There's a mole, a source.

What is the Biden administration coming after all of that? I want to go in a different direction for now, however. I think it's

important to proceed in a different direction.

I want to talk about the alleged threats of violence.

In particular, I want to talk about all of the claims and concerns and the like that there's going to be some sort of coming disruption in the national discourse.

The idea, as it were, that people in the right are violent extremists, we're hearing this more and more from people in the media.

We'll get into Biden, the historians later.

Joe Biden had another group of historians who showed up at the White House to give

him a bunch of bad advice. I mean, the last time they were there, they told him he could be

FDR with 50-50 Senate, so I don't know why he's listening to a group of progressive MSNBC talking

heads. But there is this view on TV shows, on news networks, that the right is increasingly violent.

I saw someone characterize Fox News the other day as essentially an ongoing drumbeat for Civil War.

That's how they characterize the network.

If you look at the ratings, I don't know if you've seen the ratings lately,

but Fox News's day part and night part dominate every other cable news network.

It's impressive.
