Stephen Colbert’s team was allowed to be in the Capitol. However, they were told they had to stay with their staff guide, and they did not, so the Capitol Police kicked them out.

There is trespass as in oops, we went somewhere we weren’t supposed to be, and there is trespass as in hanging Mike Pence and killing Nancy Pelosi.
Republicans are trying to both sides the insurrection, but the media hasn’t fallen for it so far. Merrick Garland and the DOJ have nearly 400 defendants who took part in the 1/6 attack awaiting trial.
