Stephen Colbert Puts The Spotlight On 'More Idiots' Charged In U.S. Capitol Riot
HuffPost
“The Late Show” host took a look at some of the latest arrests in a clip titled “More idiots charged for roles in Jan. 6th insurrection.”
Stephen Colbert talked through the legal troubles faced by alleged participants in the U.S. Capitol riot on Tuesday and concluded some weren’t the sharpest tools in the shed. First up was Robert Morss, of Pennsylvania, who’s accused of leading clashes against law enforcement during the attack on the Capitol by Donald Trump supporters trying to overturn the 2020 election. The FBI said agents found a Lego set of the Capitol in Morss’ home as well as firearms and military gear and a notebook with a section titled, “Step by Step To Create Hometown Militia.” Also featured was Doug Jensen, a QAnon believer who stormed the Capitol on Jan. 6 but repeatedly stated on video that he thought he was at the White House. A judge said that Jensen couldn’t have preplanned his actions because he “had no basic understanding of where he even was.”More Related News
