0:00.0 | Welcome. Welcome in here, up there, out there, to the late Joe. I'm your host, |
0:09.2 | Stephen Colbert, and folks, I am feeling I gotta say pretty darn good. And I feel a little |
0:15.9 | bad about that, because the thing I feel great about is somebody else going to prison. |
0:20.1 | You know, not supposed to feel good about that, yes. The Lord says no to yesterday in a trial |
0:29.1 | over the horrific events of January 6th, the founder of the Oathkeeper Stuart Rhodes was found |
0:35.0 | guilty of seditious conspiracy. Okay. That, that, my friends, yes. That's a big one. That |
0:46.3 | is a big one. That's insurrection with a creamy trees and center right there. Delicious. |

1:54.8 | the product of an organized conspiracy. Well, yeah. I watched it. It sure seemed organized. |
2:04.0 | I don't remember any headlines that said capital meet cute gets out of hand. What? Rhodes |
2:11.1 | is such a scumbag. Even his estranged wife chimed in saying that the conviction is the |
2:16.0 | first time Rhodes has ever faced consequences. Damn. That is what you call winning the |
