“The Daily Show” prepared a box of goodies on Tuesday night’s episode for the armed militants who took over an unoccupied government building in the frigid eastern Oregon desert.

Correspondent Jordan Klepper took it upon himself to gather items from the militia’s wishlist posted on Facebook.

“When I saw that wishlist by the militia, I knew that I could help so I wanted to send a big ol’ bag of supplies,” Klepper said.

His box of goodies included holiday socks, a white “camo” shirt and a “Daily Show” hat.

Watch the clip, from Comedy Central, to see if Klepper was actually just sending his nonreturnable Christmas gifts:
