Tucker continues his coverage of Stephen Colbert’s recent attempt to harass members of Congress. Highlights include:
“Last week, on Thursday, talk show host Stephen Colbert dispatched a group of seven of his employees to Washington D.C.. Their job, break into the US Captol complex and harass lawmakers inside. So,, the group dutifully arrived in the afternoon and were met almost immediately by uniformed Capitol Hill police officers, who threw them out. But, apparently on orders from Colbert, they returned. At about 4pm on Thursday, the group reentered the building.”
“Once on federal property, Colbert’s employees did what they came to do, which was disrupt the business of Congress.”
“All seven of them were charged with unlawful entry. Now, that’s the identical charge that hundreds of January 6 defendants have been prosecuted for. But, unlike January 6 defendants, Colbert’s employees were not sent to the DC jail for a year and a half in solitary confinement, no, they were released after only a night behind bars, and then they fled back to New York. Why is that? What exactly is the difference in the crime? As a legal question, we still don’t know the answer.”
“For some reason, Capitol police have not released the surveillance tapes that would show exactly what Colbert’s employees did that so triggered the police force controlled by Nancy Pelosi that they were arrested.”
“This isn’t comedy, it’s a very sad midlife crisis. But more than that, it’s information war being waged against television viewers on behalf of the democratic party. At least when the White House press secretary does it, she admits what she’s doing. Colbert hides behind his former job as a comedian.”
“Comedians have a sense of humor. It is, in fact, a job requirement, but Stephen Colbert does not. Stephen Colbert has lost his sense of humor, along with the critical distance and perspective that make humor possible.”
