If your IQ is in the midrange of the double digits and you consider the multiple layers of security perimeter barriers you had to climb over while breathing in teargas to be an invitation.

Hypocrites!


Jailing a woman in her 60s with cancer for two months, no less.

Right wing propaganda. Her age is not an excuse for a felony or three and she got less time than some people get for drugs.

We all knew this would be the outcome.
These Colbert 9 are affiliated with the "correct" political party. They are immune from prosecution.
It is sad our judicial system has come to this, but here we are.

Republicans really think they’re above the law and don’t understand that Colbert’s staffers being targeted was political in the first place.

Sorry! Wrong guess!!!!

Let’s see, story broken by Jesse Waters, already online at the Daily Mail despite the fact that it’s 3 am there and the only place you can really find this info is the RWNJ propaganda sphere, so I’m gonna go ahead and say: “Not sorry! Right guess!!!!”


DP. Here's a nice lefty source for you. You are not just wrong, you're a nitwit.

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.


If they had permission to be there then why were they arrested for illegal entry?


Because the standard to arrest someone is “because I feel like it”

The WERE NOT PROSECUTED. Because that would required actual proof they did something wrong. W

I’m the PP who got called a nitwit. Turns out - I’m not a nitwit (we both knew that). You, on the other hand, will not return to this thread and will neither re-evaluate your “news” sources nor why you fall for lies.
