he was in the week society at princeton. and prepared them in ways for public life and how they comport themselves in public. in this age where i personally am so chagrined icing politicians pop off on twitter all the time just with such a lack of quorum, is there a way that we can recapture that particularly preparing young people for engagement in the public sphere and expectations of what it means to participate in those? the virginians certainly a very distinct sense of public dignity, which seems to be lost today. >> well, i do think that the atmosphere in virginia encouraged people, encouraged and then from a very young age to participate in public service. and so when they were 24, 25, 26, 26, when do very young they became members of the house of burgesses. and took part in actual legislation and saw older men who impressed them greatly. i think that helped them. probably we shouldn't overestimate the amount of composure and politeness that -- you know where i'm going -- at a later demonstrated with their debating so

an affidavit of news contained today, stephen miller, a yale-trained, princeton-trained mathematician data scientist. he participated in a project where we reviewed high risk ballots in pennsylvania, under the penalty of perjury, using his statistical expertise, there were between 80 and 100,000 ballots that either didn't get counted in pennsylvania that came from republicans, or that were requested in the name of another person, meaning the person who voted or got the ballot wasn't the person who requested it. he's putting his name to this, 100,000 votes. why is that important? the spread inrs pennsylvania between trump and biden is below that number, about 80,000 at last count. this is the sort of gumshoe work that can help americansth understand, is this issue real or not? and in every state that we've looked at, we are seeing identical statistic data, witnesses, affidavits, there is something real here. we don't how big it is, but the facts say there is something very irregular going on in some of these big cities where elections were conducted. >> sean: sharyl attkisson -- by the
