Last night, Fox News broke the story that the U.S. Capitol Police arrested a group of staffers with CBS’s “The Late Show With Stephen Colbert” and charged them with unlawful entry. They also interviewed House Intelligence Chair and Jan. 6th Committee member Adam Schiff (D., Cal.). Jail time would seem highly unlikely though the Biden Administration has held those arrested for the Jan. 6th riot for long periods and sought maximum sentences. However, it also highlights how the vast majority of those arrests were not charged with insurrection or even seditious conspiracy but the same charge of unlawful entry or trespass. Recently, Colbert joked how he was thrilled to be mentioned in the Jan. 6th hearings.
