"I'll get a lawyer, and we will sit down and have a conversation. We will schedule a meeting. I didn't let you in," McInnes said before walking off camera. The stream of the show sat as dead air for at least 30 minutes, according to online reports.

Josh Denny, a comedian and contributor at Censored.TV, told his Twitter audience early Friday morning that McInnes was still being held by authorities and that the apparent raid was not a prank.
Just got off the phone with our people.

It’s not a bit.
Gavin was AGAINST going to Jan 6. He was AGAINST Charlottesville (and told Proud Boys they were out of the club if they went) but he’s rotting away in jail because he dared to question authority.
During McInnes' August 23 show, he complained of an unmarked police car sitting in front of his house.
