Wait, they broke in after hours AND recorded anything and everything they could find in offices, hallways, garbage cans, conference rooms?

Gross. What a violation.


No, no, and no. None of those things happened.

Story:


The U.S. Capitol Police arrested a group of staffers with CBS's "The Late Show With Stephen Colbert" after they allegedly illegally entered a U.S. House of Representatives office building on Thursday night, Fox News has learned.

The group of nine people were arrested in the Longworth House Office Building after being escorted out of the Jan. 6 committee hearing earlier in the day because they did not have proper press credentials, according to sources.

The same group resurfaced later on Thursday night after the Capitol complex was closed to public visitors and Fox News is told that they took videos and pictures around the offices of two Republican members of Congress, Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy R-Calif. and Rep. Lauren Boebert, R-Colo.

A senior source in the U.S House of Representatives told Fox News that nine individuals associated with Stephen Colbert's show were arrested: Jake Plunkett, Allison Martinez, Tyrone Dean, Stephen Romond, Nicoletta Green, Brendan Hurley, Robert Smigel, Josh Comers, David Feldman.

Entered a closed federal building at night to snoop around?

How is that not in camera?

Why disclosed 6 months AFTER it happened?

Terrible security at schools and Club Fed. Or corrupt. Or defunded. Or berated. Take your picks.

Good christ. Read a non Fox link. They were already in the federal building. They had the permission to be there.

To be clear, the Capitol Police never arrested anyone for January 6, 2021. Other agencies have stepped in to do the job. Leadership at the USCP is a joke. They released that statement that Loudermilk was giving an innocuous tour the night before the attack. Loudermilk sits on the committee that hires and fires USCP “leaders.”

I bet this case gets nolle prossed.



Did the Capitol Police have independent authority to arrest the Jan 6 people after they left the Capitol property?

What difference does it make? They were understaffed, underarmed and unprepared for the GOP’s attempt to overthrow the government; that comes from the top. They didn’t arrest anyone in the Capitol and just herded everyone out. The right wing element needs to be cleansed from every governmental agency before they do any more damage.

Colbert just blew up the hearings.

Probably for the same reasons that some Capitol Police simply opened the barricades and allow the insurrectionists in. There are far right wing elements that have infiltrated many different government entities. This story got sucked up into the right wing ether almost immediately. It rather seems like just another (tiny) right wing plot.

Charges dropped for all 9 members of Colbert staff. The prosecutors said they were "invited in" earlier in the day and couldn't prove their trespassing charges. Meanwhile how many people are charged and convicted of trespassing came through doors that the Capital Hill police opened and "invited"?

Hypocrites!

No one charged was invited in on Jan. 6. Capitol Police may have given up after the Capitol was breached by violent action, but that is not an invitation.

Entry into the Capitol has to go through screening, visitor processing etc. And that is the process that the Colbert team followed - in addition to actually being invited by members of Congress, which the J6 loons weren't.

And, just because one or two idiot Capitol Police officers were seen on camera doing things like moving barriers, that DOES NOT in any way constitute "officially inviting them in."

Meanwhile we still deserve investigations and answers as to why there was a handful of apparently MAGA-sympathetic USCP officers seen aiding and abetting the violent mob, even posing for pictures with them, while the rest of USCP was being in the fight of their lives, getting savagely attacked and beaten trying to defend the Capitol from that violent, insanely delusional mob.
