‘Daily Show’ Breaks Down How Donald Trump’s Jan. 6 Pardons Are Already Aging Badly

LOADINGERROR LOADING

“The Daily Show” host Michael Kosta on Tuesday took a look at what’s been going on with some of the Jan. 6 rioters that President Donald Trump blanket pardoned in one of his first acts after returning to office last week.

“I’m sure they’re making the most of their second chance, right?” asked Kosta.

The host noted how one man, Matthew Huttle, had been fatally shot by an Indiana deputy after he allegedly resisted arrest during a traffic stop.

Another is wanted for a 2016 charge of solicitation of a minor, a third faces child pornography charges, and a fourth is incarcerated for two counts of child pornography.

“Wait, wait, wait, wait. What?” asked Kosta. “I’m starting to worry that the people who broke into the Capitol and took a shit on [former House Speaker] Nancy Pelosi’s desk are not upstanding citizens.”
