becoming rachel walters. she becomes this nexus of this communication hub. she is one of the most literate of all the writers and in fact, works as a schoolteacher a year later. and she really is the one that the brothers and brother, her brothers in law and her husband are writing to her. and then she's disseminating that information back to the other brothers and also including messages from what's going on at home, you know, in their county or in their individual houses and anything that will help them stay connected to their home. so she becomes a critical element of this. this group of of letters. next, we have david walters, her husband, who, as lynn mentioned, joined the fifth indiana calvary. he serves generally in the central area of the country. we have isaac walters, who is one of the first of the brothers to join up. he joins the 20th indiana infantry. he serves along the east coast in the eastern theater of the war, mostly in virginia. we have john wesley walters, the youngest of the brothers. he

rachel walters. so it's through their family line that we have these letters to share with you and share with american public in this donation. it becomes clear why the walter's family valued these letters. there's 180 letters and papers, mostly of the use of envelopes that show the way that the mail travel, th of that mail. when the address had to change, to find somebody who h relocated and the postmarks of the wo thapost office was doing to to process those mail. have abo of those envelopes and about 80 or so letters and a few items of ephemera that the family enclosed while trying to communicate with each other, including the item in the middle here, which is a special order that was issued in 1863, and that david had chosen to enclose in this envelope with his letter 's pictured. an was at a time while david was serving in kentucky, a border state, and working with the fifth indiana calvary to secure a peathe area. in particular, this special order declared martial law in the counties so that th

rachel: yeah.erent than when, you know, the chinese interfered in our election or if the -- in fact, it's worse. i expect the chinese to try and interfere with my elections. i expect the russians to try it. i don't expect our fbi or our intelligence agency or dhs to interfere in our elections. this is such a betrayal of the american citizens. i don't even -- my head is just about to explode. >> no, you just kind of really hit the nail on the head there. this is absolutely far worse. we expect, of course, geopolitical foes to insert their intelligence people to try to screw with our country. none of that's new, it's been going on since the inception of sentient beings. i get that. and it's not just the fbi or the, the ni, director or national intelligence. the dhs and the pfbi were using the weaponized powers of the american government to interfere in multiple elections? it's got to be the biggest election scandal of our time. there's simply no doubt about that. will: you mentioned what you're cover
