There was a performance art exhibit at the Conservative Political Action Conference in Dallas that featured a January rioter crying in a fake jail cell

Brandon Straka, who provided information to the FBI as part of a plea deal that kept him out of jail, was featured in the CPAC exhibit. The congressman entered the cell to pray with the man.

The host of "The Daily Show" said that a story like this couldn't get any more crazy. The best part of the story is that the actor who played the defendants was actually a rioter who avoided prison by snitching. This guy is pretending to be a prisoner in order to get away with it. Which is crazy.

Noah said, "You snitched on your fellow rioters and now you're on the streets crying, 'Man I wish there was something I could have done to stop them from going to jail'"
