After being tossed out of one buding, 7 members of talk show host Stephen Colbert's show gained unlawful entry after hours into the Longworth House Office Building.
While trespassing without authorization to be there, no IDs, no passes, and escorts, the 7 began banging on Representatives' office doors, seemingly attempting to gain entry, and causing a disturbance.
Addressing the incident and the actions of his staff during his monologs, Colbert said these actions were his staff 'just doing their job'.
Trespassing, beating on office doors, harassing Politicians and staff, trying to get into their offices, causing a disturbance the Capitol Police had to respond to.....that was their 'job'?
Mission accomished.
Colbert, a vocal critic of the trespassing and illegal entry of the Capitol on 6 Jan, had made fun of individuals who had been arrested in the Capitol and of their families. Now here was Colbert defending 7 of his own staff members for the same thing.
Of course his staff's crimes were excusable, according to Colbert, and he went on to make light of their actions.
"After they’d finished their interviews, [my staffers] were doing some last-minute puppetry and jokey make-em-ups in a hallway, when Triumph and my folks were approached and detained by Capitol Police," Colbert said.'
I wonder if banging on Reps' doors, harassing them and their staff, and making a scene worthy of having the police called was considered the 'last-minute puppetry' or the 'jokey make-em-ups in a hallway'.
Colbert continued, pointing out some media had reported the night before that his staff had perpetrated an 'insurrection' (according to some media) at the Capitol. He assumed a pompous attitude, stating they were not at the Capitol but at an office building where our politicians work. I guess for Colbert this was a huge difference regarding trespassing, protecting our elected officials, and perpetrating crime....or just an opportunity to try to minimize his staff's stupidity and the crimes they had committed.
One question raised immediately by the public was 'Will they be treated equally under the law', as in would they be treated the same as Capitol trespassers arrested in 6 Jan.
The answer is, 'No'.
As Colbert stated, "My staffers were detained, processed and released. A very unpleasant experience for my staff."
Released? "A very unpleasant experience for my staff"?
No, a 'very unpleasant experience' is being arrested, thrown in jail, held in 'DC Gitmo' for over a year, waiting for due process and your Constitutional right to a fair speedy trial, getting physically and mentally abused until you crack,confess to anything they ask, or kill yourself, as one person arrested on 6 Jan did recently.
THAT is an 'unpleasant experience'....but it's nice that D-Schiff's TV buddies, who he helped get illegally into the building, got to go home to their homes and family right away.
The DC Police say this is a continuing active investigation, but WHY? The charges will be dropped. Colbert has already made a joke of his staff's crime, excusing criminal action by leftists in front of the world.
