I mentioned the yellow vest movement, and I read a hateful comment that was an incitement to violence. There are many, obviously, that you can find across the Internet if you can bear to go to the comments sections.

We heard testimony from Michael Wernick that he was very concerned about violence in the upcoming election. Does it go beyond those sorts of online comments? Are there real, credible threat assessments, and should we be concerned that there is to be violence in the upcoming election?
