As an aside, I was also accused of being in the employment of PBS as a social media shill last week by the same guy that suggests I'm working for CNN today. LOL.

The Ken Burns doc was a great.

CNN did a series of hard-hitting episodes on current right-wing extremism and the threat to American democracy that it poses recently. It was very well done.
