“The first part of the hearing focused on the now infamous plan to have Mike Pence refuse to certify the election, a procedural move for which he had no authority. As former Pence lawyer Greg Jacobs told the committee, Trump lawyer John Eastman told him on January 6th: ‘Al Gore did not have the basis to do it in 2000, Kamala Harris shouldn’t be able to do it in 2024, but I think you should do it today.’ Well, it’s just a classic case of do as I say, not as I coup.” —Stephen Colbert
“And this is what we learned: All the lawyers knew that overturning the election was a crime. They all told each other that they knew it was a crime. They all told everybody in the White House it was a crime, including the president. They told him, ‘Sir, it’s a crime’ and he said, ‘Thank you for clearing that up. Now, let’s go do that crime.’” —Stephen Colbert
“Some of the crimes — some of the crimes described today were procedural and constitutional — a little light sedition among friends. Some of them were more straightforward, like, what’s the word? Trying to murder Mike Pence.” —Stephen Colbert

and Orwell’s 1984.”
