He did not order the military to 19 00:00:59,460 --> 00:01:02,628 capture the pope. He did take his pills without 20 00:01:02,663 --> 00:01:05,464 the nurse having to wrap them in salami today, so that was good. 21 00:01:05,499 --> 00:01:07,866 [ laughter ] otherwise, we didn't hear a peep 22 00:01:07,902 --> 00:01:09,101 out of him. The police were on high alert 23 00:01:09,136 --> 00:01:14,873 outside the capitol because of threats, fears of the kind of 24 00:01:14,909 --> 00:01:16,942 violence we saw on January 6th. The house even canceled their 25 00:01:16,977 --> 00:01:17,743 session today out of an abundance of caution. 26 00:01:17,778 --> 00:01:21,847 This was the scene on capitol hill. 27 00:01:21,882 --> 00:01:24,550 Kind of a fun "north korea vibe" going. 28 00:01:24,585 --> 00:01:27,019 Why is it that the people who claim to love our country the 29 00:01:27,054 --> 00:01:28,187 most are also the ones who threaten to blow it up? 30 00:01:28,222 --> 00:01:35,260 These conspiracy aficionados picked the date March 4th 31 00:01:35,296 --> 00:01:37,596 because it is the date on which presidents used to be 32 00:01:37,631 --> 00:01:42,301 inaugurated in the olden times. Which is so random. 33 00:01:42,336 --> 00:01:44,436 March 4th is also the anniversary of the first 34 00:01:44,472 --> 00:01:45,704 people's choice awards.

To hide his mouth. 53 00:02:41,529 --> 00:02:43,762 Let's take a leap off that bridge and go along with that 54 00:02:43,797 --> 00:02:47,833 being true. How do you explain the fact that 55 00:02:47,868 --> 00:02:51,303 he's tucking in that extra 112 pounds? 56 00:02:51,338 --> 00:02:59,344 [ laughter ] is there a magic set of spanx I 57 00:02:59,380 --> 00:03:00,145 don't know about?

He sat for an interview with cbs 64 00:03:13,527 --> 00:03:16,528 from incarceration. According to him, we have it all 65 00:03:16,564 --> 00:03:19,798 wrong. >> my actions were not an attack 66 00:03:19,833 --> 00:03:22,601 on this country, that is incorrect. 67 00:03:22,636 --> 00:03:23,969 That is inaccurate.
