7 arrested in House office building linked to Colbert show

Media set up before the House select committee investigating the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol holds its second public hearing to reveal the findings of a year-long investigation, on Capitol Hill, Monday, June 13, 2022, in Washington.

WASHINGTON — U.S. Capitol Police said Friday that officers arrested seven unauthorized people in a congressional office building Thursday night and charged them with unlawful entry. Another person familiar with the matter provided the AP with a list of nine people who had been stopped by Capitol Police. They included several producers, along with Robert Smigel, the voice behind Triumph the Insult Comic Dog.

The incident Thursday night followed the third public hearing by the House panel investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol insurrection.

Insurrectionists

Good. Period.

They need to be tried as insurrectionists just like the last unarmed people who were allowed in by the democrats.

Adam Schiff did this, and they were where not allowed.

I love the number of people immediately broadcasting that they have no idea how the election system works 🤣🤣🤣

Throw the “insurrectionists” in solitary confinement!

But, did they try to overthrow the government?

Sounds like we need FBI raids on their houses, them to be placed in solitary confinement for up to a year, multiple misdemeanor charges to be placed upon them, and a committee to find out how these evil people tried to destroy democracy by invading the capital.

With all the shit happening to this country, this garbage is trending? Capitol popo should have been arresting people on 1/6.

Maybe it was a skit for SNL? Maybe Lorne Michaels and Stephen got together over a beer or two and decided let's do something fun for a change on the Hill cuz nothing happens up there that's fun. We can do fun. So they wrote a skit and did interviews and included the cops.

They really aren't good at keeping the doors closed.

Capitol Police love right-wingers. Why are we even having these hearings?

This is a coup attempt! This is an INSURRECTION !

Completely misleading….they had permission. Guarantee a GOP wing-nut called this is as a false report. Pathetic .

Amazing how this headline didn’t include ‘They were authorized to be there.’

Insurrection

MAGA is coming

and just like that, unlawful entry to the Capitol building becomes a minor offense again

Well, there are alot of folks who would like Stephen Colbert as President 😏

No put them in jail for the next 18 months without a hearing

I have ptsd from this - very disturbing - where is fbi ?

No exceptions. Hold indefinitely in the DC Jail.

Solitary confinement for 12 months until trials. I don’t make the rules.

Insurrection

Sounds like the Republicans were upset and needed a distraction for the News cycle.

Insurrectionists, they are.

I didn't even know Colbert was still alive

I don’t even care

Did unarmed person get shot

Obvi not even close to what happened Jan6, but they were trespassing and also reports that they were in 2 republicans offices taking pictures and videos, which I’ll assume wasn’t authorized…esp a republicans office. Now that’s shady!

Insurrenctionists

They should be all given $2500 fines, 2 months house arrest, and three years probation. With permanent federal ban

This is worse than 9/11!!!! Am I doing this right?

These charges better be dropped immediately!

InchErection

It’s nuts the people in here trying to claim this is the same as the Jan 6 mob that literally killed people and broke into the building yelling that they wanted to hang anyone who would certify the lawful election lol

Colbert is a threat to democracy.

KevinTriforce

PREDICTION: These cases will be dismissed as soon as they reach a court of law.

Omg! What was the death toll? How much $ in damages? What constitutional processes were stopped? Where were congresspeople hidden? How much shit on the walls? America demands answers!

They are spies for a group called DarkSec

INSURRECTION!!!!!

I think a camera crew that's there would have been a great indicator that they were allowed to be there? This smells like something MTG would do...

Will you guys still take my packet tho

It sounds pretty Insurrectionary to me....

So Triumph gets arrested... Did he poop on The Capitol walls? Steal Nancy Pelosi's podium? Break any windows? Erect a gallows? Bite anyone? JAN 6TH Insurrectionists walked freely out so I'm assuming Triumph must have done worse. What a joke 🙄

Democrats supported slavery, might as well support this. I will say this to all of your mentality Ill employees,I will help each and every one of you get help.just hit me up

Attempted coup!!!!

They had permission and we’re released

Sounds suspicious, I’m not buying it . I bet they were the proud boys

StephenAtHome you should insist on testifying under oath along with Trump for what each of you did or didn't leading up to what Fox is calling insurrections. Seems fair for both you comedians to get equal treatment.

Oh dear lord! They were there to shoot a comedy segment!

Insurrection?

Will Jimmy Kimmel reference this every night for the next year?

Clearly another distraction orchestrated by Shifty Schiff.

Sounds like someone at the CP, or someone goading the CP, is trying over-hard to make a molehill into a mountain. No feces were smeared in the making of comedy cutaways...

Was it a joke?

Looking forward to colbertlateshow on this 🎉😃

Lol. Lmao.

Was he wearing a purple jacket? OMG Stephen, now your going to get out of this pickle! He cracks me up, don’t blame him he can’t help it.

Insurrection. Where is the panel and the non stop coverage. 6/17. Threat to democracy. Worst than 911

So they stayed past their allowed time, and someone called the cops on them.. wonder who

Keep them in jail with no bail in definitely. That what we do now..no?

It was not this.

Wow.. so now they arrest people for trespassing in the Capitol Timing is inconvenient.

PLEASE (🙏) be true!!!

This reminds that there were tours in the days before January 6.

The day democracy almost died part 2

Solitary confinement for 1 year. Equal treatment under the law right guys?

This is hilarious.

How many people did the US Capitol Police kill this time?

Does anyone have a link from a *real* news source?

I just ate a bowl of Rain Bran Crunch. With oat milk.

Let’s think this thing through - I think Colbert’s name should be on the pardon list.

I wonder who called.

‘Meanwhile’ on Monday should be a good one lol

Insurrection

This was Domestic Terrorism & January6thCmte RepAdamSchiff StephenAtHome colbertlateshow SpeakerPelosi you can bet conspired to make it happen. HARRISFAULKNER FoxNews CNNPolitics MSNBC BBCWorld SkyNews WIONews nytimes TheJusticeDept billmaher

looking forward the the hearings about this clear attempt to overthought the government. I hope AOC is doing well.

Sounds like security is a bit lax at the Capitol. Good thing they were just filming a comedy show.

They were trying to end democracy as we know it. Such a dark day for America

I wonder if they will get prosecuted like the Jan 6th people.

Oh for fucks sake.

Wait, Triumph the Insult Comic Dog is back!? Ah man, this is the best kinda publicity they could've dreamed of hahaha. I NEED to watch this skit/piece now hahaha.

Haha. Well, they proved their point...someone remind me what that was, exactly? 🤦🏻‍♀️ Nothing surprises me anymore.

Yeah RepAdamSchiff staffers snuck them in.

And RepLoudermilk have a tour to domestic terrorists plotting an insurrection… not the same thing here 🙄🤦🏼‍♂️😂

So it sounds lik at worse they overstayed their welcome? Didn't cause $30 million of damage, threaten the lives of our elected officials, build a gallows, and smear fecal matter on the walls, anything like that? No? Okay. Carry on.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Ahhh doing a recon mission !

Not a threat. Calm down. But, Triumph might have really, really hurt some GOP feelings. He’s a BULLY.

Detained!!!!!! Not arrested.

AP get your story straight! Authorized!

Honestly who cares? Why does this matter to anyone and what about this makes it a political statement? Some of you people pathetic 😂

freetriumph

If they had been from FauxNews they would have been escorted into all the private offices and given guided tours

They ever think about maybe stopping anyone before they get inside

Want to make a bet that Marge or Bobo filed a complaint

INSURRRECTION

So they’re arrested but it was ok for the congressman to take people on a private photo shoot when the capital was closed? What’s up with doj? They want interviews but why haven’t they been doing their own? What have they been doing to investigate 1/6. They have subpoena power

GreatOldParty They better get two years solitary confinement. Equal justice for everybody. Or do we really still have a two-tier justice system?

john_wawrow Charge them with treason!!!! Put them away for life! Like they belong! How's it feel?

'Throw them in the Gulag forever!' - oh wait. Wrong political party. 'Let those freedom fighters go!' - Nancy Pelosi, 2022.

Were they storming the capitol to overthrow it? This is an egregious outrage!

wow guys, way to exaggerate a god damn hand puppet, lol. Triumph has been around for a while. Yeah, I'm sure this has been some long con on their behalf to infiltrate or whatever hahaha. can't wait to hear the jokes from Triumph regarding these regular G.I. Joes

Tourists? Taking a tour?

If this is Colbert announcing his candidacy I'm all for it. A reminder that he's team AbolishTheSenate

An CBS Insurrection? StephenAtHome ? Sick.

We need to shut the Capitol down until we can figure out what the heck is going on.

Geez, their security blows baby chunks! Big ones!

See what they get charged with! Haven't read any posts!!!

Clickbaity headline much?

WTAF. What about the treasonous insurrectionists?

Yet they let all the insurrectionists go on the day of the attack.

TheRock

Wow. TheOnion is getting really creative.

Omg they're still doing Triumph the insult comedy dog!? Haven't seen him since the 90s.

Meanwhile...

Why not hold off on publishing this until and unless US Capitol Police get themselves together enough to provide arrest records with *names* attached Is that too much to expect JuliePace?

Imagine if they were Conservatives. The internet would blow up

Be careful jordanklepper They're coming for you next

Interesting choice of who to arrest… or not

🤡🤡🤡🤡

We need a June 17th committee now!!!!!

Yikes.

Are they being held in solitary confinement for a year without do process

Life is one big reality show

It’s a insurrection… democrat law makers allowed them in, they went about the place harassing republicans all while being unescorted. This will go down in the history books as being one of the worst days for democracy.

It's not unlawful entry if the congressional aides gave them permission to be there while the crew was filming interview segments with the congresspersons. 😒

Isn’t this an insurrection?

Figures loser show and people

😂 my fellow humans that argue over all this dumb shit 🤣

litterly shaking

Another insurrection!

June 16th, 2022, Democrat operatives attempted an insurrection at the Capitol. Launch a full investigation.

US Capitol Police arrest Stephen Colbert staffers at House office building, charged with illegal entryNine people associated with Stephen Colbert's show on CBS have been arrested after allegedly illegally entered a U.S. House of Representatives office building on Thursday night. They should be locked up for a year-and-a-half in solitary confinement with no trial. Glad to see even Colbert thinks the 'trial' is joke worthy. Real blows that those people were attempting to get into Republican members offices though. They need to be held accountable for this act of insurrection. Jan 6 committee supports child sex trafficking, illegal drugs, money laundering, illegal aliens, lying, looting, racism and theft. as do the 'media'.
