Hey, before we get into this episode, I want to let you know that this show was recorded late Thursday morning about a fast moving news event.

So it's possible that some things may have changed by the time you listen.

Also, there's some bad words in this episode, so if you're listening with kids,

heads up.

There were a lot of tweets, a lot of posts in advance of this. There's a lot of online

chatter on the part of people who took part in this. Were you expecting to see what we saw?

I knew something terrible was going to happen when you had the president invite people to the

capital to protest. That's Danielle Citron. She's a law professor at the University of Virginia who writes

about online speech and privacy. He wasn't saying really let's protest. He said,, we will take our country back.

And so it was very clear he was inciting people

who need very little incitement.

But even though this is what Danielle studies,

and she knew the Trump supporters were talking

on social media about going to DC. and she thought, hey, it'll be okay.

She thought, hey, it'll be okay.

Things won't get that bad.

And then Wednesday turned violent.

My kids, one of them called me and said, this is really bad mom. What is going on? I'm scared.

And I just said, okay, honey, I'm with you.

Then I sent off my tweet to Jack to say,

he's incited violence, proofs in the pudding, like enough's enough,

take him off Twitter.
