For example, a professional law enforcement agency \u2014 the Capitol Police Department \u2014 investigated charges that one GOP member of Congress, Rep. Barry Loudermilk (R-Ga.), led a tour of the Capitol where several Jan. 6 rioters were allegedly present. Democrats allege \u2014 with no evidence \u2014 that Loudermilk was conducting a \u201creconnaissance tour\u201d for the rioters.<\/p>\n<p>The Capitol Police determined there was <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnn.com\/2022\/06\/14\/politics\/barry-loudermilk-reconnaissance-tour-capitol-police\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">nothing to the accusation.<\/a>\u00a0 But the Jan. 6 Committee decided to \u201cinvestigate\u201d anyway because they have a video of a man taking pictures in a hallway who attended the rally the next day.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s no evidence the man breached the Capitol, but he did make threats against Democratic lawmakers. How can anyone claim it was a \u201creconnaissance tour\u201d if Loudermilk didn\u2019t even know the guy and was certainly unaware of any plans he might have had for action the following day? As far as Loudermilk was concerned, it was just another Capitol tour.<\/p>\n<p>Republicans have to combat this nonsense, and the best way to do it is to draw parallels between the Democrat\u2019s hyper-partisan investigation and the idiotic actions of Colbert\u2019s staffers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You\u2019ve probably heard by now that several crew members of Stephen Colbert\u2019s Late Show were arrested while unlawfully being inside the Capitol after hours and without authorization.
