what stewart rhodes was saying in his letters that china and the u.n. are coming in to take over.so there was this fear, there was a legit, not legitimate, sorry. there was actually held belief that if they didn't stop joe biden from becoming president something terrible would happen on january 6th or on january 20. here that in qanon. they were waiting for something to happen, to save the country. i do think a lot of them believed it and i think some of them on the other side came out and we talked to a lot of defendants especially marcus and i, and some of them felt like they got duped. a lot of people still were like well, the country is in danger and someone needs to do something about it. >> that leads directly, megan come into my question for you, which is these conspiracy theories, these false narrative about a stolen election, where the people came as part of the three percenters or oath keepers are proud boys are just they came because that a sincere belief that they need to go because president, former president had called them there. what did you see? you currently work

a bill proposed in rhode island would allow drivers on the autism spectrum to add the word autism to their license or their vehicles. license plate, the decals would be optional. the goal is to ensure a driver with autism is not deemed a threat if they're stopped by police, a nonverbal teen with autism testified in support of the bill. goal is to avoid misunderstandings between the officer and the driver. but some people with autism opposed the idea. one critic saying it is literally labeling us and putting us into a bar. looks rather than uplifting and supporting us. others support the bills intention, but say it goes too far. if there is a subtle way to say there's somebody who has a different communication style. there's somebody who has specific medicaid medical needs. there's somebody who is medically fragile in the car. that is important information for them to have. but how do we do it discreetly, so it's not screaming out to the whole world. new figures out this week show the number of children with autism is rising. the cdc recently studied eight year olds across the country
