The podcast episodes discuss the threat of political violence related to the 2024 presidential election, with both conservative and liberal commentators expressing concerns about the potential for conflict and unrest.
In the episode featuring Renée DiResta, she expresses worries about online disinformation and propaganda leading to scattered political violence surrounding the 2024 election.
