U.S. Capitol Police said that officers arrested seven unauthorized people who identified themselves as being affiliated with CBS' “Late Show with Stephen Colbert,” in a congressional office building Thursday night and charged them with unlawful entry.

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. 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.

In a statement to The Hollywood Reporter, CBS said the production team was at the Capitol Wednesday and Thursday to record a comedy segment featuring Triumph.

Will they spend more than a year in solitary confinement?

when does their Insurrection trial begin

Maybe you jack liberals will just praise Colbert for saving democracy?

Oh, I see how it is 🤔. This group, let in without permission by AdamSchiff staffer, knock on representatives doors making loud noises, arrested for TRESPASSING, sound familiar?January6thCommiteeHearings Will they be jailed for 18 months? Will there be primetime coverage?

When there are two directly conflicting statements, why are you only including one in the headline? colbertlateshow’s production team said they received authorization to be there, per this very article. They can assuredly prove that with documentation. Did you even ask?

A group of homegrown terrorists called the Meek Boys led by Stephen Colbert & Adam Schiff tried to overthrow the US government.

Why doesn't ABC mention them sneaking into Republican congressmen and women's offices to take pictures of confidential information? Why leave that part out?

Should we be worried 😂😂😂? More BS from Republicans 😱

Can't wait to see the show!

Sadly, they face greater penalties than the organizers of the seditious insurrection on 1/6. Those who encouraged and supported the violent riot must be held accountable, especially if it came from the top.

Lets see: Jan 6 applies, Now receive: Its a Threat to democracy Its an insurrection by ignoring the law and security measures Same Arrest Same Charges Same Shame through politicians screaming Same Jail til trial Same delays in discovery of Govt Info Same self entitled Courts

Our Democracy is under attack.

And RepLoudermilk gave a tour to domestic terrorists plotting an insurrection… not the same thing here 🙄🤦🏼‍♂️😂 January6thCommitteeHearings

Always ademocrat city. They can’t protect their children. Notice no Democrat is talking about protecting your children and making their schools safe. All Democrats and media do is make shooters Famous. You cannot walk the streets of a democrat city and feel safe

We need a prime time hearing! Colbert did NOTHING to stop this! Muh democracy!

Insurrection

Will Stephen Colbert be charged with inserection

So an insurrection?

Then put them in jail for a year and 5 months with no recourse. They entered the capitol unauthorized. Hmmm, sound familiar?

They should tell the truth cause Stephen C would not say anything like that for them to do that it was trump and his people

Jan 6 committee members permitting a comedy show to film skits in Congressional office buildings seems in poor taste and diminishes the seriousness they’re trying to project.

They should have been taking pictures of tunnels and stairwells so the CP wouldn’t have been suspicious of them.

Did you forget to mention AdamSchiff staff let them into Republicans offices?

This is terrifying. I hope the Insurrectionists aren’t released until they’ve all been fully investigated.

It’s been said Adam Schiff let them in,so now we need a hearing on why Adam let them in what were they doing even after they were told to leave by the capitol police earlier.

Wasn’t Triumph part of the Watergate break in, too?

After Adam Schiff let them in.

Just so we're clear: On Monday, the Capitol Police lied to cover up a terrorist attack on the Capitol. On Thursday, the Capitol Police arrested Triumph the Insult Comic Dog.

Unlawful entry to the Capital? Sounds familiar. The Irony!

Has Colbert denounced this ?

It took 24 hours to announce this? Leave them in jail.

Need to stop the double standard

Sounds insurrectiony to me. Did the capital hill officers murder any of them like they did to Ashli Babbitt?

Throw them in solitary confinement like you did the Trump supporters!

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'.
