Heads up for anyone who may be interested. I'm going to watch the rerun at 9pm ET.

I was not able to fully pay attention but it seemed Woodruff was unfamiliar with the concerns for future fair elections, (due to the changes pukes have made in individual states election laws). She seemed unaware, unconvinced and skeptical of that. I missed so much, but she asked something like, 'what makes you think they could do that?' He replied something to the effect that all of the things that prevented them (in this past election) from switching their electors to drump, have been changed (fixed) by republican legislators. There is nothing to stop them next time.

She seemed not to have heard this before... anyway, I want to see the entire interview.

He had that recent article in the Atlantic.

1. She was probably playing devil's advocate

She's not stupid or uninformed.

3. Devil's advocate? Maybe. I watch PBS Newshour every day. I know she's not

stupid or uninformed. That's why I want to watch it again without distraction.
Thanks for your input.

2. Barton Gellman was in NPR's

Fresh Air with Terry Gross today. The whole thing was chilling. TFG’s next coup indeed has already begun and I really hope Dem leadership is on their toes.

4. Sorry to say I too was distracted, I watch/listen to NewsHour every night,

and would be surprised that Judy Woodruff is unfamiliar with 'concerns for future fair elections.'

5. I thought she did a fine job of eliciting some of the scariest info I've heard recently. nt
