Republican gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake faces repeated questioning about whether she will accept the certified election results. The hosts discuss the legality of filming drop boxes to document potential "ballot harvesting" and mention a local Fox station's error in prematurely flashing election results.

One account describes receiving frequent calls on a landline, including a bizarre Social Security scam that devolved into pornographic commentary. The general atmosphere of intimidation is compared to historical authoritarian regimes, where citizens are afraid to express pro-government or anti-establishment views.

CBS News reported on "witness intimidation" following a real-time tweet from President Trump, a narrative characterized by some as a "shadowy smear campaign." The intensity of the media's rhetoric has led to hyperbolic comparisons to historical trials.

For example, a reporter claimed Elijah Cummings warned the President about witness intimidation, but the subsequent clip only showed Cummings promising that Cohen would eventually testify.

Prime Minister Theresa May condemns the intimidation, specifically noting the rise in abuse directed at female candidates.

The discussion touches on "dark money" and 501(c)(4) social welfare groups. The hosts counter that such influence is no different from existing lobbying by groups like the Sierra Club and dismiss Franken's arguments as specious.

Kelly expresses outrage over the agency's "shoddy" management and the intimidation of American citizens. The hosts suggest that while the rant received a round of applause, it may ultimately serve as a distraction or a way to justify a massive overhaul and expansion of the IRS.

The bill requires ISPs to retain temporary IP address records for 18 months and introduces vague definitions for "harassment" and "intimidation." The hosts warn that these definitions could be used to criminalize speech that causes "emotional distress" without a legitimate purpose.
