CHRIS HAYES: The final thing I’ll say, and ask you Jeff, is- there's also that threat of violence towards the judges, the justices on the state supreme court and the SCOTUS justices. Like, they signed that majority opinion per curiam anonymously,honestly essentially. You can look up their names. But that's a real concern as well. 

JEFFREY TOOBIN: Yeah, and this- there is violence hovering, you know, there was just an arrest in Arizona that didn't get much publicity recently about someone threatening to kill, you know, all sorts of federal officials. You know, violence hangs over this. January 6th was- was, you know, there is an aggressive prosecution that has taken place, but rightwing violence in this country is continuing, and the FBI director has spoken about how difficult it is to stop it, and it hasn’t gone away.
